Game 3: Where was I when Gary Neal became Ray Allen? Another freak occurence...

There isn't a whole lot to say about this game. The Spurs shot the lights out and the Heat took the night off. I don't think you can take much from this game for either team. Neal has never shot like that in his life and probably never will. The only player that showed for the Heat was Mike Miller, the big three for the Heat were completely non-existent and San Antonio's big three had a generic game at best. All in all it was an awful game to watch aside from the shooting of Neal and Green who combined to hit 13 of the Spurs 17 three-pointers in their route to setting a NBA finals record. So what does game 3 mean in moving forward in the series? The answer: not a whole lot. I don't suspect the Spurs will be breaking more records from beyond the arc, and I don't suspect the Heat will sleepwalk their way through another game. However, there was a couple of things that stood out to me about game 3. The way Wade is playing defense in this series right now I don't think he could even guard me. Half the game he looked completely lost in his defensive rotations and when to help leaving Danny Green wide open like he has been all series thus far. Furthermore, what is Lebron doing out there? 7-21 from the field with zero free throw attempts...? That aint no Lebron I ever heard of. I'm not going to go as far as some analyst and say that Lebron needs to have the biggest game of his life in game four, but in order for Miami to win there needs to emerge some semblance of the MVP numbers he put up during the regular season, not just flashes of them during the third quarter. Otherwise the Heat can go ahead and pack it up and go back to Miami and cherish the ring they do have.
