I agree, I never understood the 2-3-2 finals format

I believe the format is for hotels.

Edit: to be clearer. It's all about costs.

I think it would be a good matchup for Wade, however I don't think it will be utilized, partly because I don't think Spo will go for it and I don't think Wade is willing to play in the post. He still thinks he's the slasher he used to be.

Stealing one is a necessity.... Can't go down 0-2....

One guy I worry about is Ray Allen... He can get quality minutes against us w/o being a liability on defense..

Benches = Even
I don't think the benches are even. The Heat don't have Manu Ginobili coming off the bench and, in all seriousness, he is basically a starter, anyways. Diaw is also capable of some good plays depending on how utterly passive he is. Sometimes Bonner can even hit a few treys and Cory Joseph has been serviceable backing up Tony. Gary Neal can theoretically light it up from beyond the arc, too, though this volume shooter (a.k.a. ball hog ) has been horrible in the playoffs, though he has been hobbled by lingering plantar fasciitis.

I think he said that he is feeling the healthiest he's felt all season due to this long rest. Of course, he might be lying, so who knows? If 2005 Manu could show up, that would be helpful...
