Bosh is too soft to be our C

[SteBO]

good read.

My new proposed rotation

rio(24)/cole(12)
wade(30)/allen(20)
lebron(36)/battier(20)
UD(24)/lewis(18)
Bosh(34)/joel(20)

I think we eventually go this route. Battier needs to assume his bench role as the backup 3.

Did I every say that? You said he had no post game, which is completely false. Obviously we shouldn't double DeAndre, but that is our team philosophy..

Great read on our team defense: http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-tr...lem-on-defense

ok then I misused my words. We should not be doubling Jordan in the post. i really just meant it as stating he is not a Shaq or Howard in the post.

This should be the starting unit...

Wade/Rio/Cole
Ray/Cole/Wade
Lbj/Battier/Miller
UD/Lewis/Bosh/Battier
Bosh/Joel

In order for the HEAT to continue to play this small lineup... They have to be big in other positions.

Wade and Lbj will give them height advantages at the pg position.

i like the idea of this line up but lebron will play pg on offense .. either wade or allen plays sg/sf .. lebron will play D on his normal 3 spot so i ilke it !

If you've been watching Wade play you'd see he has no business playing or defending the PG position, and LeBron needs to play off the ball more to be more efficient. He can't initiate the offense AND play in the post. It just doesn't work.

Wade has looked very slow on defense and would never be willing to fight over tough screens and get knocked around. He would fall apart by season's end. We don't need size in the backcourt, we need speed and ball containment.

We will be fine...as soon as we get Kenyon....if not we r screwed

I get it he would probably help but god Kenyon Martin is supremely overrated in Heat forums SMH...Even Martin himself would be ashamed had he ever sneaked into Heat forum and read these posts. Funny how everyone thinks he'll be a savior. It's not 2003.

1 rebound in the first half. like a bosh

[MackSnackWrap]

Bosh is not the problem.. Battier playing PF is asking for a problem.. Put Ud as the 4 or maybe lebron on the 4.

[MackSnackWrap]

Battier has trouble guarding the pf. I'd say ud or even lebron playing defense on the opposing pf is fine and you can put battier as the 3 and guard the opposing 3.

ok, but bosh should have more than 1 rebound when farried has 13 in the first half.

Heat + up and downs during season + Playoffs = CHAMPS

rinse repeat

Bosh's new name will be

Charmin Bosh

Penetrating pG's are also a problem, because our big men always help on D .

The defense from Chalmers/Cole has been pretty dreadful lately, which makes you wonder how useful Garrett Temple would've been here. I was one of the few in here that actually wanted him to make the team over Harris.

[Mr. Baller]

Garrett Temple would be doing the same thing Terrell Harris is doing, so its completely irrelevant
