The Heat are peaking?
Because they won a game after getting blown out?

The Bulls missed shots because af a defensive buzzsaw called the Miami Heat. Who cares about the season. Miami is peaking at the right time. With Haslem they will contend against the experienced Mavs.

@gmsingh Hahahaha silly hater. Must you always find something to nitpick? The heat thrived because they closed out a playoff game on the road like a veteran team does. Against the stingiest D in the entire league I might add.

You sound so bitter and scared. Heat played way better than the Bulls. The Bulls shot lights out from 3 pt land in Game 1, and that was above their average from long distance. Game 2 brought them back down to Earth. Rose has to shoot well and distribute and Deng and Boozer have to step it up. If they don’t CHI won’t move on. Simple as that. Be a man and admit this wasn’t going to be a sweep as so many people thought. It will come down to the end, and the mentally stronger team will win, period.

He can only close when the opponent has already been beaten and he can get his look-at-me $WAG on.

He’ll fold like a whiney kid when they are down by a few points in the closing minutes.

If the the Heat “thrived” why were they only able to score 85 points? And why does D. Wade still look like he needs Geritol?

This looks like something to remember. James is starting to develop a rep as a closer, and THAT is the rep to have. He looks scary good.

Home court belongs to the Heat now, YES! The Bulls are such a good team but Miami’s talent looks like it might be enough. I’m excited for this series. This is shaping up to be an amazing playoff series. Hopefully we get seven games out of this. I want the Heat to win but I’m scared of Chicago, Rose has mad skrills.

Its crazy to see Lebron closing out these games. I mean he seems to go on fire in the last two minutes of these close games, draining some very clean 3′s and imposing his will on the other teams defense.. Its still to soon to call… But maybe Lebron’s starting to put the crown on and hes becoming that legendary player everyone expected him to be in the playoffs.

The Heat won 85-75, not 83-73.

Now THAT’S how you close a game.
