Miami will in the series but Indiana is pretty much their first test in the playoffs. Milwaukee wasn't that good and then they went up against a depleted Chicago team.

I'd like to see LeBron get fined for flopping in between games. That would make this series even better.

Ask and you shall receive.

LeBron fined $5,000 for his flop last game.

EDIT: The Heat still get preferential treatment. Two Pacers were also fined.

SportsCenter ‏@SportsCenter3mTHIS JUST IN: LeBron James, David West and Lance Stephenson have all been fined $5,000 for flopping in Game 4 of Eastern Conference Finals.

Wade should get fined every damn game!

Did Wade get fined for that flying elbow?

I don't believe so, I think he just got a Flagrant One.

LeBron's $5,000 fine for flopping is the equivalent of a $10 fine for someone making $40,000 a year.

Fines are nothing for the players. I wish they would give that money to charity instead of the nba keeping it as a profit.

Do they not do that in the NBA? I think they do that in the NFL. I figured it was standard.

They do go to charities.

The NBA and National Basketball Players Association (NBPA), per the league's collective bargaining agreement, equally split fines paid by players, then donate the respective shares to the charities of their choice.

The NBA doesn't indentify the individual charities that the fines go to, though.

Let him murder that mouth-breather Hansblow, first. Him and his little dog (brother) too.

Hes trying to do his best Rodman impersonation, but Rodman would try to instigate the other teams beat player like Karl Malone. Not some scrub like Hansborough

Really hope the pacers win the series. I can already see what would happen if the heat played the spurs.
