Battier might not play.

Shane Battier (hamstring) is not yet 100 percent and the Heat are calling him questionable for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.

Not that I don't want Pau to get better, but I really don't want him starting this game. Pau on Battier or LeBron is a HUGE mismatch.

Battier on Pau is also a huge mismatch if they put him on Pau...although Lebron would probably do a better job i doubt they have him guard Pau all game since it takes a lot of energy fronting him


battier could lock pau up easy.

From what I hear Spoelstra is enamored with Joel Anthony so not sure if Pittman would be able to buy any minutes either way.

If there was ever a game to not shoot so many threes ( Besides the OKC games) this is it.

Miami is blowing GS out. That means the Miami starters will get rest in the 4th qtr. Not what I expected.

Not sure why we're all excited for another whoopin by a contending team -- we just don't have the youth & energy to sustain a defensive effort for 40+ minutes ...

I don't know about that, when the magic with D12 played the heat they got wide open 3's all night long, there game plan was to shoot 40 3's against the heat.

This is what I feared. Miami has been coasting and now all of a sudden, the night before a Lakers game, they play tight defense again, their injured players are suddenly healthy again (Battier), they blowout their competition and rest their stars with 30 minutes played or less.

It looks like Miami was targeting this game vs our Lakers. We need to come up big in the first half or this will get ugly.

I can see Chalmers go 12 for 12 on the threes when he's guarded by Duhon the Moron
