It's not like he is sitting high caliber talent on the bench. The Heat today are the same team they were in the regular season. They have no bench. That is why most thought they would lose to the celtics and maybe even the sixers once Bosh went down. But Lebron is a beast and carried them. OKC is just a matchup nightmare for the heat. There only shot is for Lebron to take either Westbrook or Durant for meaningful minutes. Lebron has to avoid foul trouble though. Not sure if he can...

True. But playing Lebron 46+ minutes and Wade 42+ will just kill the HEat in the 4th quarters of games. We'll be able to crank up the MSB choke posts for sure.

Well, he did that last night. Battier had some time on Durant. But after Westbrook's big 3rd quarter, the Heat put Lebron on Westbrook to start the 4th. Westbrook cools off, but now Lebron can't guard both guys and Durant goes off.

Lebron cannot stop westbrook off the dribble and cannot defend durant's jumper...


But he prolly could minimize westbrook's jumper and Durant putting the ball on the floor...

May be worth it, but pick your poison
