Heat Is On: Miami Advances To Eastern Conference Finals

Not that a pro sports blogger should ever be giving fashion advice, but we can’t help but think these dudes swagger-jacked the personal style of two other famous bros.

The baby blue and orange suits are in the car, presumably.

The Heat lead the Pacers 86-78 with 8:00 minutes left in the fourth. Pacers star Danny Granger just picked up his fifth foul.

With Dwayne Wade at the free throw line late in the second quarter, the crowd at Bankers Life Fieldhouse started a chant that the ESPN announcers -- and SB Nation’s team of bloggers, for that matter -- had never heard before: “He’s-A-Flopper.”

The Indy faithful brought signs, too.

A decent start from Indy, but they have a long way to go to stave off elimination: Wade obviously went off, but LeBron hasn’t been amazing and the Heat are only down two.

And a GIF. Notice the flamingo:

Update: The Pacers are now on a 10-0 run and lead 45-41 with 4:15 remaining.

The Pacers have scored 22 of their 28 points in the paint.

The play symbolizes the aesthetic differences between these two teams fairly well. The Pacers grind and grind and grind. Miami flies.

Some of the Indiana faithful even brought signs.

As for the Heat, they aren’t shooting as well.

The Heat have started out 1-for-5 from the field.

Not sure what color these pants are. Fuchsia? Hot pink? Some unknown shade Dwyane Wade came up with?

The Miami Heat will be a bit shorthanded as they try to win Game 6 and close out their 2012 NBA Playoffs second-round series against the Indiana Pacers on Thursday night.

Did the NBA make the right call with the suspensions? Will the Heat still have enough to push through and emerge victorious in Game 6? SB Nation’s Ben Golliver breaks it all down.
