What I saw in minute per game in Miami is what I expect against Cleveland (aside from occasional foul trouble).

Rondo: 42
Ray: 35 -> should increase to 38
Pierce: 38
KG: 35
Perkins 28
Davis 22
the rest of the team: 37 mins divided

..and I have no problem with these minutes. This is why their minutes were kept in check all season. This is why they coasted through a lot of games hoisting jumpers, not hustling. Their bodies have been preserved for this.

This is the switch that was flipped. And it will remain on.

I think, because of Shaq and Varejao, were going to need to rely on both Sheed and even Sheldon, in addition to our starting frontcourt and Davis.

I wonder how effective Davis will be containing Varejao. Sheed certainly lacks the foot speed and energy to match against him, and will likely take on Shaq and Z in defensive assignments.

Not that worried, yet...I'd still like to see the starters coming in at around 36-40 and closer to 36 than 40...but agreed, it is the playoffs, everyone will be pushing it.

Also agree with whoever siad we will need to use more of our bigs against Clevland than we did against Miami.

I'd go with:

Menu of: Perk, Baby and Sheed on Shaq and just run the crap out of him.

Menu of: KG, Sheldon & baby on Varejo, beat the crap out of him...

Menu of: KG & Baby on Jamison.
