Was starting Ray Allen a mistake?

and -18 +/-.

He should have started Beasley. I never understood why Spoelstra doesn't play him.

Starting Allen was a decent idea, it spread the floor and he was getting tons of open looks. The only problem was that he was missing all of his shots.

Heat fans were yes! Benching Chalmers and starting Ray Allen was exactly what we needed.... :smugdraper:

















Then he end up with 5pts.... :lolbron:


But I agree, Heat should have found some minutes to put Beasley in their to see what he could do earlier in the series...

If the Spurs could find minutes for Matt Bonner you telling me the Heat couldn't have given Beas a few of those Rashard Lewis minutes? :mjpls:

If your relying on a 40 year old Ray Allen to save you then you already lost.

Chalmers needed to be benched though, i would've started cole world or battier and just let lebron run point. Ray is used to coming off the bench i think his timing was thrown off starting.

No Lebron playing point was a excellent idea.

Team didn't contribute plain and simple

Even if Ray was hitting problem would be them not having that scorer off the bench and chances are Ray would wear down playing all those minutes. I think I may have been wrong about Beasley needing more clock. That's exactly what the Heat needed was somebody else willing to go out and get their own. Beasley couldn't have been any worse than Wade defensively.
