And, this qualifies as successful escapism. I saw the score, 125-96, and thought, "Indy's prolly missing like 13 players." AP's write-up says the coach was back after sitting out three games in the protocol but didn't mention any "Pacer" being out for this game. One of their guys, sounds like he's one of their main guys, Malcolm Brogdon, cane out after five mins in the first half with "soreness in his right Achilles" but sorry Mal-Bro, we didn't have Jimmy, Bam and PJ so we win you lose now you get a big bruise on your Achilles.
Hold onto your hats cuz the gang that can't shoot straight (consistently) " tied a franchise record with 22 made 3-pointers" :o. And you know who got the record-tying trey? U.D. God damn the pusher.
Miami shot 49.5% (44.9%). D-Ro was 10/16 (6/10) for a tie-season-high 26. Tyler tied D-Ro with 26 (although that wasn't a tie-season-high for him) on 8/17 (5/8).
Man K-Lo. Damn that little guy has come around! He has been playing soo much better the last several games now. He only had 8 points tonight but if the "Heat" played positions basketball which of course they do not you don't need pernts outta your point guard, what you want are assists and K-Lo dished 12 of those buggers tonight agin' only 3 turnovers. Sublime-reading game for Kyle. Oh! He just missed a 3W by those two little peepy points!. Mo-fo K-Lo had ELEVEN rebounds! I'm as tall as Kyle, okay? I don't think I've ever had 11 rebounds in an NBA game.
Indy coach Rick Carlisle has the definitive word on the game: "Miami was tremendous. They played a phenomenal game."
HEAT!!!!
