No. Talent is more important than depth. At the end of the day it's better to have 1 guy who can do 3 things well, than 3 guys who can each do 1 thing very well. Come playoff time, there's only so much room on the court and it's much easier to work around 1 good player than a few mediocre ones.
The Heat don't even have a bad bench. They just need a slightly better starting center . If Joel Julio were coming off the bench they'd have him, Shane, Mike Miller, Haslem, and Cole. That'd be one of the best benches in the league.
