I would bet Mike Miller gets the call, and James guards bigs for parts of the game. Haslem and Allen are the first two off the bench, and Anthony may indeed see more minutes. It wouldn’t surprise to see Lewis back out there at some point, though- this Thursday’s matchup with the Spurs could well be a three-point shootout, and Rashard gives Miami more bullets.

“That lineup matches well with OKC, but nobody else”

Explain how the Heat have won 10 of their 13 games so far if their small lineup doesn’t matchup well against 29 of the 30 NBA teams.

Keep in mind, they haven’t played OKC yet.

Miami is currently giving up over 100 a game. They already have tons of options to shoot. they need Anthony back in there for defense. Bosh is basically invisible on defense. That lineup matches well with OKC, but nobody else. Stop it Miami with the small lineups.

Take your time Shane and get back when you’re at 100%.

As far as the Heat’s choices, with all due respect to the opinions of Kurt Helin, Tom Haberstroh, and the dozens of posters to follow; I think Erik Spoelstra has it under control.
