Did the NBA ban zone-defense this year?

I'm really trying to figure out why the Pacers aren't trying to play zone against the Heat.

Did they not watch the Finals last year? Once the Mavs, who overall were nowhere as good as the Pacers are defensively, switched to zone against Miami, Lebron was literally useless and was a non-factor after game 2.

As it stands, all Lebron and Dwade are doing against Indy is just beating their man off the dribble and driving to the bucket for a (sometimes difficult)layup or floater.

What am I missing? :dwillhuh:
