Game two between the Heat and Pacers was low scoring and physical as Indiana got the split they wanted, and San Antonio showed the Clippers that execution and hot three-point shooting are hard to beat.
Indiana 78 - Miami 75
LeBron James and Dwyane Wade did almost everything they could to get the win, except hit free throws and layups down the stretch. The Heat are definitely missing the injured Chris Bosh, but Indiana played a physical game that wore down Miami. The Heat are simply atrocious from behind the three point arc; in the two games they are 1-22 as a team. David West led the Pacers with 16 points and 10 boards. Game three is Thursday night in Indiana. Spurs Roll »
David West Says Player Who Dove at his Knee Will be Dealt With (VIDEO)
Indiana's David West sprained his knee in the third quarter of last night's game with the Heat and didn't return. Reports say he could have come back, but with the game out of hand there was no reason to risk further injury.
After the game, West told the media that a player dove at his knee. West then said that it would be 'dealt with.' Ominous!
West kept it pretty vague, so it's unlikely that he'll be reprimanded for making some kind of a threat. He also said he doesn't need the referees to protect him and that he can take care of himself. After all the physical play, and one really cheap shot by Miami's Dexter Pittman, game six between the Heat and Pacers tomorrow night is starting to sound like it can't be missed.
