“Born Ready” was, to quote the always him Jeff Van Gundy, flat-out ballin’ Tuesday night.
No play signified that better than the play before the half – the Pacers had the ball out-of-bounds with 0.1 seconds left — all they could do was tip the ball. Stephenson skied and tipped it in.
By the way, that is some terrible defense by the Heat in general and LeBron James in particular, who was so focused on Roy Hibbert he got beat backdoor.
