    Not likely for me either honestly, we are taking a family vacation the first week of August in SC so I'll be stuck on a boat playing cards.

    I want a guarantee of victory tonight. Can someone guarantee victory for me? It's important for my sanity.

    It's a dark alley.....

    but you are carrying the machine gun from predator. Never a need for "fear" with this squad.

    Per ESPN: Spo considering starting Miller in place of Haslem. LBJ at PF would guard Duncan some but could also hide out on Splitter and roam.

    Heat wants floor spacers

    Miller has been playing out of his skull and Duncan isn't the one who's been hurting us.

    Winner of this game takes the series, IMO.

    The lines have skewed all the way to pick to 1 1/2 from Sportsbook. Everyone is expecting the Heat's usual response after a loss I guess. Hope this isn't the one where they don't come back.

    I think the line moving could have to do with public response but I think it would also have to do with slow realization that Tony Parker is not well for this one.

    If the spurs stay hot outside we may well lose this one.

    Not to say the Spurs can't take this game, but they have had two games in a row of outlier type 3 point shooting. An expectation of some serious regression to the mean is not unrealistic.

    I swear this is karma for Battier / Miller shooting 60% in last year's Finals.

    Thats probably true but there's also no way Miller keeps shooting 10/11 from 3. None.

    Granted. But I'll take Miller coming back to earth if it means Green and Oneal do as well.

    Like the second half of Game 2. Was all I could think about as Game 3 was blowing open.

    Will be shocked if they keep it going. More shocked if Miami doesn't handle business tonight.

    I've not been more confident about a game in awhile.

    Lebron passes to Bosh in the final seconds and he misses the game tying 3.

    Thank you. When you bet on Miami you screwed us royally. However predicting a Spurs win in hate mitigates it nicely.

    I'm a fan of neither, this is just my prediction. Would be nice to get a good game either way....the last two haven't been very competitive.

    The Heat havent lost 2 in a row since January and in the game after a loss their average margin of victory is like 15 with none less then 11. Im predicting a Heat win. 97-89

    I hope Im wrong though...

    Parker with a sore ham string will slow him down a lot. Heat's attitude is usually where it should be after a loss like that. They will switch to attack mode and win this one. I'm supremely confident a decisive win is on here.
