If I'm a Heat fan, I want Cole to start against Nate over Chalmers for this series.

Chalmers has been, for the most part, terrible defensively against Nate, and just plain dumb on the offensive end.

It's not just this series. He was bad in the first round too mostly. He injured a few weeks before the end of the season and missed a ton of games. It was great for Cole because he got to play nearly 40 minutes a night for the final 3 weeks of the season. But Chalmers hasn't been right since. I'm not sure if it's still the ankle or if he just missed too much time and can't get right, but he's been as bad as I've seen him.

I have no idea what's gotten into Cole though. The guy has been shooting 47%+ from 3 since the all star break. And with all that time he got at the end of the season, his feel for the NBA game has greatly improved. Strange to witness the light go off in a guy's head to go from completely awful to starting quality play.

I guess my issue is that if the refs call the quickies on Butler, they're fricked, and thats probably the Bulls homer in me.

I mean who else can defend or slow down Lebron without Deng playing than Butler?
I mean they don't have anyone, but that's not on the refs. It's give and take, if you choose to play super physical on the perimeter, get up in a guys face all the time, and reach him from behind consistently you're going to pick up fouls. Basically the Bulls are playing "we dare you to call a foul on every possession" defense, which is great, but don't act surprised when the refs end up calling a foul.

People are always up in arms about LeBron not getting called for fouls, but he doesn't play physical on the perimeter. He just plays positioning, and funnels his opponent into the help defense. It's all give and take. Playing physical will lead to a tougher defense to beat, but it's also going to lead to more fouls being called on your team.

IF they can win tonight, I think this series goes the distance.

Big IF though.

Edit: They need Nate Robinson to go nuts.

Chalmers probably smoked a bit too much during his recovery.

Cole is starting to get in his head. If Chalmers is on him, Nate will light it up.

I'm leaning that way at this point.

Have a feeling this game will go into OT.
