I mean, they took him out, Lebron gets an easy layup, put him back in for offense, than take him out again, another Lebron easy layup...
What in the world was the thinking?

None- Les Miles type decision, no rhyme or reason.

It's called dumb coaching.

There is no explanation. Vogel gifted the Heat that game.

Only thing I can think of is he didn't think the Heat would get a layup, so he had the shooters all covered. I would have never done that though. lol

I'm a huge LeBron fan but I was pissed Vogel took Hibbert out...just inexcusable...I have no idea what the reason was. Hibberts help D is the reason LeBron has been conservative in driving in...look what happened when Hibbert when out: LeBron drive to the paint.

That'll be the explanation... But I mean he had 2.2 seconds and he's fricking Lebron James

At least Hibbert takes a block and forces him to FT. Dumb as shite, C Scott vs UK type retard.

The only reasoning I can think of is that he was thinking Hibbert would foul out at a play at the rim. Assuming the heat player shooting FT makes 1/2 ... You go to the next OT with no Hibbert and thus a whole period of no rim defense... Personally, it was the wrong call

So Chuck says it's smart because Bosh can beat Hibbert...
Ok so you get beat by Bosh, not by Lebron, you don't let the best player beat you

Hubert would have been on Bosh. He would have been away from the basket anyway

Might have wanted to go small (defending LeBron).
