    The Miami Heat canceled practice and their media availability one day after a blowout loss in Game 3 to the Pacers.

    The team gave no immediate reason for Friday's decision, which was announced on the Heat's media telephone hotline.

    Per NBA rules, teams are not required to meet with the media if they don't hold practice. The Pacers also will not hold practice. Game 4 is Sunday in Indianapolis.

    The Heat lost 94-75 Thursday night and trail Indiana 2-1 in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

    Miami's latest defeat was magnified by a sideline confrontation between star guard Dwyane Wade and coach Erik Spoelstra. The two exchanged words during one of the worst playoff games of Wade's career. He scored just five points on 2-of-13 shooting and after the game refused to discuss what happened with Spoelstra.
