HoopsHype.com Indiana Pacers Twitters

The Pacers commit some of the oddest turnovers. They just turned it over throwing the ball in bounds.

Paul George just picked up his 2nd foul. Miami wisely posted LBJ up to draw that 2nd. Sam Young in.

Paul George picks up his 2nd foul. Sam Young will replace him. LeBron has 9 of MIA's 14 points. Pacers up 10.

Pacers couldn't have asked for a better start. They're 8 of 9 from the field and up 22-12 on the South Florida boys

Gump (Stephenson) attacks the rim in transition, leading to a Hill triple. Then PG gets a layup on the fast break. Pacers open up 10-pt lead

Pacers need to cover their package - and prepare for the flop - Shane Battier is in the game for the Heat.

Four of five IND starters have scored. Pacers 5-of-6 from the floor, lead the Heat 14-9 - 7:13 1Q. Very locked in.

Vogel wants his team to make more winning plays -- improve at the FT line, on the glass, in transition, and not allow straight-line drives.

My man @zkeefer from The Star is down here in Miami with us. Give him a follow for tweets on Pacers-Heat tonight.

Pacers @ Heat Game 2 LIVE blog sfy.co/jKQn #storify #pacers

Pacers aren't done if they lose tonight but, then again, they are. blogs.1070thefan.com/2013/05/24/pac…

If you didn't see the 4-wide finish of the Freedom 100 just now, find it somewhere. Magnificent.

Heat PG Mario Chalmers exited Game 1 in the 3Q with a shoulder injury but he went through shootaround and is expected to play.

So Shane Battier gets accused of hitting Hibbert in the cookies on purpose and he doesn't talk today. Hummmmmmmm

Officials for tonight: Scott Foster, Bill Kennedy, Tom Washington. #HeatvPacers

Oh so close in Game 1, the Pacers remain as confident - and together - as ever entering tonight’s game. on.nba.com/13PYzmG

U can knee or kick me every time u drive 2the rim. Ill be there 2protect the rim. That wasn't inadvertent. Battier knew what he was doing

Chris Bosh said he was never an option on the final play. "We knew where it was going." VIDEO: on.nba.com/10PmD7h

"I got a lot left in the tank. I'm 23, w/ ambitions of being great in this league so I won't stop til I'll be a first-teamer." - Paul George

Bout to take this good ole nap.

Pacers need more out of their backcourt. Hill and Stephenson combined for 12 points (on 4-of-19 FGs) and seven turnovers.

Ray Allen must dread playing the Pacers. After going 1-of-8 in Gm 1, he is now 4-for-24 in 4gms this yr vs the Pacers bit.ly/120xL8E

Of course, people are saying it's cause of LeBron. Those are the same people who said they wouldn't look at the series w/o the Knicks in it

For those saying Pacers would kill TV ratings, Game 1 drew 8.2 million viewers, the highest-rated and most-viewed game of 2013 playoffs.

Vogel on Miami's offense: "They had a more intelligent plan against Roy Hibbert than New York did and we've got to adjust to it." So true

Vogel said they will play zone defense next season. He has always been against it (the Jim O'Brien way) in the past.

Paul George makes All-NBA 3rd team

Paul George 3rd-team All-NBA, a huge honor.

Paul George voted on the All-NBA Third Team.

The Pacers made plenty of mistakes in their OT loss in Game 1, but the biggest one came on the final possession indy.st/12XTERw

Face it, when Dick Vitale rips your coaching, you've made a grievous error. blogs.1070thefan.com/?p=6290

Sure, Vogel made a mistake, but he was hardly alone. blogs.1070thefan.com/?p=6290

Tough loss too Nap.. Stay wit us !

#JodiAriesTrial Crazy!

Foods here. Ill ttyl. Thanks for the questions. #GoPacers

Ordered sum room service. Supposed to get here in 40 mins. Until then I'm answering any n all questions from my followers. Ask n ill answer!

I love this team. N I love this coach. Period. #GoPacers #turntup

MT @stephenjnesbitt: What's missing? Oh yes, perhaps the hulking 7-foot-2 frame of Roy Hibbert on defense: http://t.co/SG1UTlUnDI

Paul George and Russell Westbrook are both from Cali. They both - obviously - have some interesting taste in podium game clothe

Hibbert on winning basket: "LeBron’s layup was one I think I could have gotten cause he served it up."

Vogel: "I would say we'd probably have (Hibbert) in next time."

Vogel says he put a switching lineup in, hoping to force a jump shot but LeBron got around PG.

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra, with a shrug, on Hibbert being out: "I took it for what it was. Regardless, we would have run the same play."

Take Hibbert out - tonight and New York - and bad things happen.

Hibbert, who Vogel has called "the best rim protector in the league," wasn't on the floor for the Heat's final two buckets.

LeBron gets the ball at the left elbow, takes it right to the hoop and lays it in as time expired. Heat win, 103-102.

LeBron scores at the buzzer. Heat win 103-102

In the clutch, Paul George sinks all three. Pacers lead by 1, 2.2 seconds remaining.

After a scuffle with Hill nearly losing the ball, George got it, fired up deep 3-pt. He missed, but was fouled by Wade. 3 shots.

Wade called for a foul on Paul George's 3 pointer. PG to the line for 3 with 2.2 sec lefl

Pulling Hibbert in that situation could not possibly be more wrong.

LeBron gets around Hill, who defended him after a switch. Heat lead by two with 10.8 seconds to go.

Why did Paul and Hill switch on that screen? It's Norris Cole, get through screen. LeBron beats Hill off dribble. Heat 101-99 w 10.8 left

LeBron now has a triple-double: 26 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists. Bosh's and-1 evens the game at 99, 49.7 secs.

Since Pacers trailed 80-77, George has 15 of team's 22 points, including and1 that makes it 99-96 with 2:10 left.

Miss @Paul George's 3-pointer to send the game to OT … or want to re-watch it? Here it is: on.nba.com/12Oirsr

Paul George has gone from being a scapegoat to possibly saving the Pacers tonight. He's up 24 pts after his three-point play. Indy 99-96

Another incredible finish at the rim by Paul George. His and-1 puts the Pacers up three, 2:10 left in OT.

Pacers need to start making free throws. West missed 2 to open OT, now Paul George is at the line for 2. Score still tied at 92

Vogel in the huddle: "I told you in film yesterday you were going to win Game 1, right?"

Vogel in timeout: "I told you in film yesterday we were going to win this game, right?"

Pacers did everything wrong down the stretch but George bails them out with long, off-balance 3, and now I need more coffee.

Allen misses a corner-3 in front of the Heat bench. We're headed to OT. Pacers were 2-3 in extra time during the reg. season.

Ooooovvvvverrrttttimmmeee here in Miami

Get the "beeping, beeping, beeping, beeping, beeping" out of here. Paul George with a 3 from South Beach to tie score at 92 w 0.7 left

Paul George drills a 3-pointer with 0.7 seconds left to tie the game at 92. Wow!

Help me out here, they get it inbounds, get into West's hands, so that's when you take your last timeout?

Ray Allen, a 93% FT shooter, makes 1-of-2. Pacers have the ball, down 3, with 17.7 seconds.

George misses a fadeaway, then gets caught up in the air and throws it away. Pacers up to 19 giveaways. Miami up two, 18.9 secs left.

Wade gets around Young and lays the ball in with his right hand. Miami up two, Pacers ball -- with 36.3 seconds.

West finishes at the rim to tied the game at 89 with 50.4 seconds left...

Norris Cole reaches up and smacks West in the crotch. Good to know he's learned from Miami veterans.

Norris Cole deserves a fine for that arm to the goods of West. Just not cool.

Paul George connects on a 3pt, pulls the Pacers within one with 3:01 to play. Four Pacers in double figures.

Pacers getting initial stop, but Heat getting second chance opportunities. Down three, Vogel calls timeout.

Interesting that Vogel has Paul George on the bench. PG normally plays the entire fourth quarter when not in foul trouble.

Reggie reports Hill has a jammed toe and suspects that's why he went to the bench early in 4Q.

Pacers and Heat knotted at 72 with 8:23 to play. LeBron up to 23 points.

Has Paul George looked disengaged offensively? Or is he just worn out from defending James?

For such a big, strong man, James sure falls down easily. And dramatically.

Mahinmi with a hard foul on LeBron. LBJ grabbing his elbow.

Pacers did a great job withstanding the Heat's early spurt. IND up 65-64 with one quarter to play. Hansbrough w/ 8pts in the 3rd.

West and Hibbert in foul trouble, Hill and Stephenson playing poor, but Indy still heads into the 4th qtr with a 65-64 lead.

Battier just clotheslined Hansbrough around the neck, yet foul on Tyler. Far too many whistles being blown.

Battier hits Hansbrough in the mouth, so naturally a foul is called on Hansbrough.

West and Hibbert both with four fouls now. Will be an interesting 4th qtr

LeBron is the team spokesman for complaining to the refs after his teammates get called for a foul

It's so obvious I can't believe I'm the first to say it: Miami clearly misses Dexter Pittman.

Vogel in timeout: "Everybody take a deep breath and exhale. We are beating ourselves ... Just stay together and play Pacer basketball."

The Pacers withstood that little flurry by the South Beach boys and lead 58-53.

Pacers need one bench guy to give them quality minutes per game. Tonight, it's Hansbrough, who has 6pts, 3rbs, stl in 8mins of work.

Hill limping after he collided with Hansbrough. Augustin in for him
