Not the greatest series vs MIA..I was off a bit in my earlier comments, admittedly.
But I just don't see a scenario where Pau would help us vs MIA.
We'd need to stay small, get Jeff to continue playing consistently, and I'd bet that Paul would have a better series vs MIA.
I'm not so sure Pau wouldn't help against Miami. they wouldn't be able to cover the KG/Pau combo. Bosh can only play against one of them and each is his equal. The other would eat up Anthony/Haslem. when either came out, the other could still be in the game and therefore keep pressure on Miami to keep Bosh in the game to contend with them. The bench for the C's frontcourt becomes Bass, Wilcox and Sully which is far superior to what Miami has to offer.
They can't really do anything with Rondo. Bron would have to contend with Green who's taller. Bron as the PF wouldn't work to well if KG or Pau is his counterpart. Put either in the post on offense and then have them back off Bron in the halfcourt to make him a jump shooter--they'd each be able to block him on a drive.
Bradley/Lee on Wade/Ray would work pretty well.
The one concern I'd have is Green is not the offensive or defensive player that PP is. PP is at least able to make Bron work on D. I think Bron would have a pretty light workload guarding Green.
