Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals between the Miami Heat and the Indiana Pacers was physical just like every other NBA Playoff series is right now. But much like every other NBA Playoff series comes more than physical play, injuries are involved, much like the injury Indiana dealt to Chris Bosh. In Sunday's game, Bosh was injured after a play in which he was going for a basket, resulting in an abdominal strain. Miami will have to contend without Bosh in their series against Indiana but now it seems like their only options aside from their scoring productions from Wade and LeBron, we should look to Udonis Haslem, Ronny Turiaf, and Joel Anthony to come off the bench and fill the void that is now gaping. Game 2 will now test Miami's mettle more than ever when they face Indiana tomorrow night on TNT. For homework, I want you all to take the time to appreciate Haslem, Turiaf, and Joel Anthony and what they've done off the bench for their time in Miami and cheer them on like everyone's watching. I'm Deron Butler, and I believe Udonis Haslem should start for Game 2 and continue to get the ball rolling for Miami.
