I really hope Doc was paying attention to last night's game because the blue print for this team to beat Miami was in last night's game. I know people on this board HATE small ball but good small ball will beat this Miami team.
Doc has to start KG/Green/Pierce/Bradley/Lee against this team and play Green and Pierce 40 minutes a night in a series.
KG will match with Bosh
Pierce will match with LeBron
Bradley will match with Wade
Lee will match with Chalmers
And then the mismatch that kept us in last night's game is then exploited. Battier does okay on Green but major minutes by Anderson and Haslem will be played against Green and he clearly can take both off the dribble and score going to the basket. He did it over and over and over again last night.
And when Bosh and Lebron try to sneak over and help on Green after the C's spread the floor and open up the middle for him, Doc can make sure KG and Pierce have some baseline extended positioning for the kick out and the easy jay.
Now I don't think the C's start green versus Indiana, Atlanta, Chicago, and maybe NY if Amare gets back but against Miami, Brooklyn, and Milwaukee I think Green starting gives the C's significant match up advantages that those teams will find difficult to guard against, namely, two SF's that at times can be elite scorers.
