Round 2, Game 3 Preview: Miami Heat (2-0) at Brooklyn Nets (0-2)

<![CDATA[When: 8:00 PM EST; Saturday, May 10th, 2014

Where: Barclays Center; Brooklyn, NY

TV: ABC

The Miami Heat won the first two games of this series at home by double-digit margins over a Brooklyn team that hung around for a few quarters, but ended up fading late. Deron Williams didn't even score in Game 2, a very troubling sign for a Nets team that desperately needs to win a game in this series just so they don't get swept, with all intentions of coming back to win set aside for the moment.

Probable Lineups

MIA- Mario Chalmers (PG), Dwyane Wade (SG), LeBron James (SF), Shane Battier (PF), Chris Bosh (C)

BKN- Deron Williams (PG), Shaun Livingston (SG), Joe Johnson (SF), Paul Pierce (PF), Kevin Garnett (C)

Final Thoughts

If the Nets lose this game, they go down 0-3 and have a chance of being eliminated on Monday night at home. They lost a home Game 7 to the Bulls last year in the first round, but for some reason, getting swept by the Heat this year would be even more embarrassing.]]>
