    Or the 92% stat.

    With the 2-3-2 format, whichever team wins game 3 when tied 1-1, wins the series 92% of the time.

    If I remember correctly, the Spurs won the third game in a nail biter ;)

    Mike Miller might start in place of Haslem and Lebron would switch to the 5 on defense...

    The less minutes for Haslem, the better (as far as the Heat are concerned).

    I would like to see Miami do that. They play better with spacing.

    So Lebron onto Splitter which requires him to box out much better than he has all series. Also will be drawn into a lot of pick and rolls, but then it allows Miami to switch easier.

    Cross matchup puts one of Duncan/Splitter on Bosh and then uhhh the other on Miller I guess.

    Hmm will be interesting to see what Pop comes out with.

    Yep...I've had enough of Battier uselessness as well.

    I wonder if Miller can play 35+ minutes...

    Duncan will have a big game if the Heat go small.

    Not necessairly a bad thing for Miami if they can contain it just to Duncan

    Spurs absolutely disrespecting Wade starting Splitter on Wade. Splitter picks up a quick foul, Gary Neal comes in for him

    When you hit 3s, life becomes easy. Wade is more forcing things than Lebron early.

    Parker getting penetration caused those 3s, which goes back to the fact the Heat are playing small.

    What you are talking about? The Spurs are small too and are 3-3 from 3 point range.

    The Heat going small has nothing to do with it. They're switching and the follow up rotations are bad. That's just bad defense, nothing to do with size

    This reminds me of what the Thunder did to the Spurs last year, if you shoot the lights out your opponent has no chance, you can have all legend team and still lose.
