GAME OF THE WEEK: Week 13, 2014

Miami Heat at Indiana Pacers (8 ET, ESPN, ESPN3)

Both the Heat and Pacers are 7-7 in March. The Heat have never finished below .500 in any month in the James and Bosh era.

The Heat are currently 2 games behind the Pacers for the top seed in the East, and they can cut that lead in half tonight. The season series is currently 1-1 with one game left at Miami on Friday, April 11. If the teams do finish tied, the season series will decide the tiebreak, and the Pacers can essentially clinch the tiebreak tonight because even if the Heat win the last game to split the series, the second tiebreaker is conference record, and the Pacers lead the Heat by 5 games in conference record. (If the Heat did make up this difference, then there wouldn't even be a tiebreak anyway, the Heat would just be ahead of the Pacers in overall record.)
