Durant is going to be a clutch shooter/scorer that James or Wade because he’s really a cross between a pure shooter and a pure scorer.

Heat starting lineup [vs. Thunder] should be:
Chalmers vs. Sefolosha
Wade vs. Westbrook
James vs. Durant
Bosh vs. Ibaka
J. Anthony vs. Perkins

man i love what this kid has to say about the game from the first time i heard him about three years ago. he says it is a team game and means it. he also stresses defense in spite of his penchant for being a true assassin once he lines it up to take a shot.

LBJ, you’re going to have to take over like you did in the ECF vs the Celtics. It’s only Game 1. Regroup and win Game 2.
I’m concerned because Harden only had five [5] points. smh

@KevinM. I really like Lamb’s game. I had almost forgot about him until you brought him up the other day. If the Hawks do as they did last year with picking up a lot of vets then I dont think the guy we take at 23 will get much pt anyway. Its still Harkless, Miller, and Lamb for me… I dont think Cunningham can play point but he can play some off guard Dude is very explosive and he gets to the line. They said he was moving up the board but if he is there when the Hawks pick then they should grab him up. I know Miller doesnt have that explosiveness but he was never a really big leaper anyway. Dude has some solid post moves and his length really gives people problems. He could have used another year of school but its still somebody I think that will be hard to pass up.

Slim I still think Boston takes Nicholson before the Hawks get a chance to get him From what I was reading he is really moving up the board after looking impressive at the combine. I think he is gone before 23 comes up

Spoelstra should put the Heat’s best defensive player [James] on the Thunder’s best offensive player [Durant]. He, Spoelstra, should start Bosh. Even though I’m not “crazy” about Bosh, he should still start. Bosh is not [a] Jamal Crawford, Jason Terry, James Harden, Lamar Odom or Lou Williams; he’s not a sixth man. Bosh is not accustomed to coming off the bench. Spoelstra should bring Battier and Haslem off the bench and start Joel Anthony. I hate that “video coordinating” SOB.

If Mike Miller can’t give the Heat anything, give James Jones a try to at least spread the floor/defense.

Message to James and Wade:
You two [James and Wade] need to duplicate what you [two] did against the Pacers. The two of you need to go for [score] 30-37pts apiece [or possibly 40+ points] with Bosh chipping in 17-21pts and hopefully, you, James and Wade, can get decent to marginal [scoring] contributions from [your] teammates.

You mentioned earlier that A.nicholson`s vert leap was poor.
I agree.
The thing about A.N. however, is not his athleticism,
but his skill level.
This kid is a stretch [4] who will easily be able to play the [3].
Yet, he has the best footwork in the post of any kid
I`ve seen coming out of college in quite some time.
Not just in the Post either; his footwork is terrific all `round.
Understanding how to play, and mastering technique;
may be more important than pure athleticism.

Al Horford straight up for Gasol.
That makes the hawk a much much better team.

If we stay at only two picks ?
From MC`s list of those being brought in to w/o;
These are the Best of the choices: *[my research]
1st round;
*Harkless; *Nicholson; *Jenkins … M.H. ~or~ A.N. (the best two)
Jenkins would fill a role as an outside shooter / shot maker.
2nd round;
*Green; *D.Miller; *Griffin; *Plumlee; *Machado; *Crowder
(best choices)
Obviously I left off some who will not be around
when we pick in the 2nd round. [e.g. Will Barton]
____________________________________________
I`ve been saying for weeks:
‘`We need more picks`’
The depth of this draft will be proven.
Xtra pick or picks in the 1st -and- the 2nd Will be beneficial !
