Basic Heat Rotation
With various new acquisitions in the summer and of course quite a few massive losses. The Heat now look to rebuild their rotation, this appears to be the rumored lineup with some possible variations that could arise throughout the season.
Starters:
PG: Norris Cole | 27 minutes
SG: Dwyane Wade | 35 minutes
SF: Luol Deng | 33 minutes
PF: Josh McRoberts | 28 minutes
C: Chris Bosh | 36 minutes
Bench:
6th: Mario Chalmers | 17 minutes
7th: Chris Andersen | 15 minutes
8th: Emeka Okafor | 13 minutes
9th: James Ennis | 13 minutes
10th: Shabazz Napier | 11 minutes
11th: Danny Granger | 9 minutes
12th: Udonis Haslem | 2 minutes
13th: Shannon Brown | 1 minute
Reserves:
#1: Shawn Williams
#2: Reggie Williams
So that is the very basic Heat rotation. Of course against various matchups and injuries that it will be very subject to change, but overall that will be the basic gameplan. Not too many shockers in all honesty, essentially Cole took the #1 PG spot, Wade and Bosh will be asked to step it up while Deng will get much more of a break than what he got in Chicago with Thibs. After that on the bench you got Chalmers, Birdman, Okafor, Ennis, and Shabazz... a possible Okafor/Birdman duo could be quite solid. Granger, UD, and Shannon Brown of course rounding it out with the Williams' on the bench.
