KEY GAME INFORMATION
MIAMI: GUARDS: The regular season goal for DWYANE WADE is to just stay healthy. Even following knee surgery, he's still good enough to pile up numbers, but the minutes won't be there in the regular season . . . That's why the Heat brought in RAY ALLEN. He and Wade will share the floor at times, but Allen should primarily play off the bench. His role will be to knock down the wide-open threes Wade and LeBron James create . . . After all the big plays he made in the postseason, MARIO CHALMERS is entrenched as the starting point guard, despite being plagued by a bad hammy in the preseason . . . Super-quick NORRIS COLE looks like he'll become one of the NBA's better backup point guards . . . If he doesn't retire, the absurdly brittle MIKE MILLER will see limited regular-season minutes . . . TERREL HARRIS will likely make the team because he's willing to play defense. FORWARDS: While another title is their No. 1 priority, LeBRON JAMES has shown no need to rest during the regular season. He'll play full-time minutes and be in the thick of the MVP race . . . CHRIS BOSH remains integral to the offense with his ability to pull opposing bigs away from the basket. His stats don't reflect his actual value . . . SHANE BATTIER will continue to be a defensive specialist whose offensive role is limited to shooting open threes . . . UDONIS HASLEM is another guy who will get held back in the regular season. He should lead their low-post rotation . . . RASHARD LEWIS' knee problems have robbed him of athleticism . . . But Lewis should beat out fellow shooter JAMES JONES for a rotation spot . . . JARVIS VARNADO is a shot-blocking force with little to no offensive game. CENTERS: JOEL ANTHONY will continue to tag-team with Haslem in the middle. Anthony is an absolute negative on the offensive end, but he brings more size and shot-blocking than Haslem . . . DEXTER PITTMAN will be battling for a roster spot. Sexy Dexy has shown no signs of being an NBA-caliber player so far in his career . . . MICKELL GLADNESS is a better alternative than Pittman on both ends of the floor.
INDIANA: GUARDS: The Pacers went 7-2 during the regular season and won a playoff series with GEORGE HILL in the starting five. He averaged 13.9 PPG and 5.3 APG in those regular season starts . . . PAUL GEORGE is a defensive stopper who is making strides on the offensive end. If he can find the touches, his scoring average will rise . . . D.J. AUGUSTIN has a skill set similar to Hill's. Maybe he'll push him for minutes later in the year, but more likely he'll shoot corner threes off the bench . . . GERALD GREEN is another athlete for their second unit . . . LANCE STEPHENSON has a chance for a bigger role, but he's been atrocious to this point of his career. FORWARDS: DANNY GRANGER's touches dropped last season, but his shot selection improved as last year went on. He'll continue to be a borderline All-Star . . . DAVID WEST's knee should be fully recovered from his torn ACL in late 2010-11. He was their best player in the postseason and should be a star this season with his ability to knock down shots . . . TYLER HANSBROUGH looks like he's settling in as a career second unit player. His lack of athleticism really limits his upside . . . JEFF PENDERGRAPH may or may not hold on to a roster spot in a 12th-man role. CENTERS: They're paying ROY HIBBERT like a franchise player, and he has the ability to control both ends of the court. The question is whether they'll now play him 30-plus minutes, or continue to use him as more of a part-time player . . . IAN MAHINMI should step in as a decent backup center . . . Rookie MILES PLUMLEE was a part-time player at Duke and is highly unlikely to contribute in his first season.

*Heat-Pacers Preview* =====================

By JEFF BARTL STATS Writer

Miami (29-13) at Indiana (27-19), 7:00 p.m. EDT

Not even LeBron James and the prolific Miami Heat offense could overcome the stifling defense of the Indiana Pacers when the teams faced each other in early January.

Indiana seeks a third straight regular-season victory over visiting Miami when the Eastern Conference's top defense meets its highest-scoring offense Friday night.

The only time the Heat were held below 84 points all season came in an 87-77 loss the Pacers on Jan. 8 as James tied a season high with seven turnovers - half of his team's total for the contest. He did have 22 points while Dwyane Wade scored 30 and Chris Bosh added 14, but their teammates combined to shoot 4 for 22 from the field.

Miami (29-13) tops the league in field-goal shooting at 48.9 percent, ranks fourth in turnovers with 13.8 per game and averages an East-leading 102.7 points, though it has struggled against the defense-first philosophy of Indiana in recent matchups.

The Pacers, who lead the NBA in field-goal percentage defense (41.9) and the East in scoring defense (89.9), led last season's second-round playoff series with the Heat 2-1 before dropping three straight. They've held Miami under 78 points each of the last three times they've beaten the Heat, including that series.

Paul George had 29 points and 11 rebounds in the last meeting and played a key role in frustrating James for most of the contest.

"It's a chance for me to see where I'm at, going against one of the best, if not, the best in the league," George said after that game. "Another challenge to myself to go at LeBron."

Since George's 2010-11 rookie season, the Pacers are 4-1 against the Heat when holding James to 25 points or fewer and 1-8 when they don't. George, scoring a career-best 17.4 points per game, averaged only 10.0 and shot 36.5 percent in the playoff series versus the Heat.

"He was a good player last year, but we weren't able to see it because he wasn't a featured player," James said in January.

Indiana has won the last two regular-season matchups after dropping nine of 10, but it will have to contend with a Miami team which has won five of six following a 105-85 victory at Brooklyn on Wednesday.

"When we're playing at a high level, that's what we're capable of doing," said James, who had 24 points, nine rebounds and seven assists. "We showed what we're capable of, both defensively and offensively."

Dwyane Wade scored 21 points and shot 9 for 16 after going 6 for 20 with six turnovers in a 100-98 double-overtime loss at Boston on Sunday.

"We just knew we could play better," said Wade, averaging 32.3 points in his last four versus the Pacers, including playoffs. "We want to get better on the road, so I thought we took a step forward."

The Pacers (27-19) lost the final three of their four-game road trip before returning home to beat Detroit 98-79 on Wednesday despite George hitting only 3 of his 11 shots and committing a season worst-tying six turnovers.

"I'm proud of our guys coming back off a trip and taking care of business," coach Frank Vogel said. "We had an edge, which is important when you have a losing streak."

Vogel also lauded the all-around effort of Lance Stephenson, who had 12 points and a season-high 11 rebounds after scoring a season-best 20 points in Monday's loss at Denver.

"He's a big reason for our success this year on both ends of the basketball," Vogel said of Stephenson, who likely will be guarding Wade. "He's an in-your-face defender. When he's at his best, we're awful tough to beat."
