Series Thread: Miami Heat Round 1 Series Thread

[Flauge]

I was just wondering about you the other day. I don't think dragic should guard him much. I would give Winslow and Richardson the primary assignment

Wife is 8 months pregnant and I have been busy turning a room in the house into a baby room. But that is just about finished from what I can do. I would definitely switch it Winslow... problem is, what does that do to the other matchups on the floor.

ASK IRA: Could Heat's reliance on rookies prove problematic in playoffs?

It won't be and shouldn't be a problem. But, yes, the Heat do rely on them a bit much. But thats what the Heat do, often rely on guys they shouldn't, in situations they shouldn't - more than they should... and then give up on other guys they shouldn't so quick.

For as good as they are and have been, they've shown their rookie status many of times in the most crucial times. We now have depth on our bench to go to when the rooks are not responding.

Miami has 3 titles, 5 finals and 6 ECFS in the past 11 years. No team is perfect in player /personnel decisions, but Miami is clearly one of the most competent teams when it comes to this. We literally found Birdman and Whiteside on the NBA trash heap. Yes we rely on Winslow and Richardson a bit much, but what are our options if not them? I would also argue that Winslow is not the typical NBA rookie.

A blessing and a course at times. From the guy that turned D-Wade into the greatness we have known him to be.

Heat organization doing it big even down in the D-League. Should give us all comfort turning to the future.

ASK IRA: Can/should Heat sustain pace in playoffs?

 

[Paolo305613]

Yes they can. If they take good shots and take care of the ball it should be no problem
