Do the Heat have a chance versus the Pacers?

I am a pretty big Heat fan (have been since the Timmy Hardaway and Alonzo Mourning days) and I love the way they played tonight. I think they have a great chance to even it up on Wednesday but I don't feel confident that they can win away from AA Arena. I still think it will go 7 games. My heart says the Heat but all of my reasoning skills that I have developed say that Indy is just too deep. Even if that is the case, I will still be watching and cheering every minute for that scrappy young team.

1. I'm a big fan of Tha Heat

Team plays with a lot of hard and a very good at home. The rookie from Marquette really changes that team, but me as I Pacer fan I want them to win. They are deep, they have several bench players who can play a huge role with the playing time they get.

2. Yes

They do have a chance, but I sincerely doubt that they will win.

The way I see it, Miami simply doesn't have enough depth. Fortunately, Allen's played well, giving Miami a solid third option off the bench. Rasual Butler occasionally can give Miami some good minutes.

If Miami wins Wednesday night, I will say that Miami has a great chance of winning. I expected Miami to come out and play well tonight, but it's another thing to do it 2 games in a row. If it becomes a 2-2 series, Indiana will start feeling the pressure. It would be tough, but I think Miami could steal 1 of 2 in Indianapolis.

3. You have to realize that Conseco Field House is

probaly one of the toughest arena's for a road team to play in next to Arco Arena. They are just way too good there and they been that way since it opened up.

4. I don't trust the Heat on the road at all

They can't even win a game at the New Orleans Arena.

As much as I hate to admit it, the Pacers will win this in 5 games. Miami has to struggle so much for every victory. The Heat go on too many scoring droughts to be able to win a 7 game series against such a good team.
