Game 7 Finale Set In Miami

The NBA Playoffs have been exciting so far. The Heat and Pistons series is coming down to the wire. Tied 3 games apiece the two teams have been evenly matched. Dwayne Wade's injury has set Miami back quite a bit, but they're still got an all around team to pick up the slack. Wade is supposed to be ready for Game 7 and many hope will be healthy enough to put on a great scoring performance. Shaq's minutes on the court will be valuable. He's got to be productive and not get into foul trouble early in the game. Hitting more than 50% of his free throws at the line will weigh large as well. Rip Hamilton will try to put on a shooting clinic while the Wallace boys will look to smother the inside on defense, pulling down the boards. Rasheed's offensive presence will be needed. If he can get hot, it might free up more shot opportunities for Chauncy Billups and Tayshaun Prince. Defense I think though will be the key to winning. How well the Pistons can contain Shaq will be a major factor contributor the final outcome. Watch out for Wade, with enough energy and strength in his legs the game may be in Miami's favor. Whatever happens, it's most likely going to be a close game. The winner will go on to play the Spurs in the NBA championship.
