wade couldn't get it going against paul in the fourth. just giving the truth more credit as an excellent defender in this league.

His length bothered him a bit. Ray played really well this series. Wade was simply hitting everything he throw up.

Yeah, Paul played really good defense on Wade.  Frankly, so did Ray.  His defense looked a little spotty at times in the regular season, but I'm pretty happy with it in this series, despite Wade averaging 30+.

Putting Paul on him in the 4th was a good strategy because with the lead, the goal was to run him off the 3pt line.  This would not have worked for an entire game starting from zero all, but was the right move under the circumstances.

Way to do the job PP!
