2005 NBA Playoffs Eastern Conference Finals Update

#1Miami Heat vs #2 Detroit Pistons
(101.54 PPG #4 in Scoring) (93.32 PPG #24 in Scoring)
(95.02 PPG #8 in Defense) (89.46 PPG #2 in Defense)
(+6.52 #3 in Scoring Differential) (+3.86 #6 in Scoring Differential)

Looks like all the reporters can now relax and enjoy a real series. The Heat had already been written off by many after one bad home game, their first loss of the playoffs. Now that people have regained their senses, the Heat are in it to win it. In game 1 DWade and Damon Jones combined for 21 points on 9-31 shooting from the floor. Tonight they combined for 54 points on 20-35 shooting from the floor, eventhough 40 of it was DWade's good night. DWade and Damon Jones only scored 11 less field goals than the Pistons had as a team. I think Miami is in good shape to go to Detroit and take home court advantage back in the series. The series will be going 7 games with the Heat winning (4-3).

The series is tied 1-1
