The Miami Heat and Indiana Pacers face off at 8:30 p.m. ET for Game 2 of their Eastern Conference Finals meeting. If you're looking for live scoring updates, you're in the right place. Here's a live blog with scoring updates, stats, commentary and highlights from Game 2. Anything that happens on the court we will bring directly to you as the Pacers look to tie the series and the Heat look to take a 2-0 lead in the series.
The Heat and Pacers played the best playoff game so far in the this year's 2013 NBA postseason. Just when it looked as if a new hero was going to surface from Indiana, LeBron James, the Goliath of basketball ruined the Pacers' evening as he drove to the basket twice and giving his Heat the 1-0 lead in the series. What people quickly forgot was how poorly James had played a few of those possessions. Chris Bosh got them back into the game as the Heat trailed 99-96. Then James intelligently took over after noticing that Roy Hibbert wasn't in the paint.
That's what everybody remembers from Game 1. Frank Vogel sat his big man in the final seconds of the game and for the sake of Pacers' fans, let's just say the rest was history. The Pacers seem like a composed team and seem capable of getting over this loss. The Pacers controlled the style of the game as it was physical, though not violent. They lost their cool as their composure repeatedly, however, as they continued to commit offensive foul after offensive foul.
David West was a big part in the Pacers' Game 1, though his presence slowly disappeared in the second half. Paul George turned it up a notch when the Pacers needed it most and the NBA might be seeing its next big star blossoming before its eyes. The Pacers might not have won Game 1, but they know they can go toe-to-toe with the Heat as long as they control the tempo.
Vogel learned his lesson while Chris Andersen continues to energize the Heat and Tyler Hansbrough schools Miami in the definition of scrappy basketball.
Here's a weird stat, the Heat are 28-0 when Andersen grabs four rebounds or more. Might as well sign him up now to ensure James can get those seven rings he promised the city of Miami.
