Bosh: "Green won't get open looks tonight"

[SA210]

Kawhi and Neal have to hit their shots, Manu too, and Tony and Manu need to drive like .

[RD2191]

Wade might be the only Heat player to give the Spurs credit.

[it's me]

Actually they did. TP mentioned after Game 5 why the Heat still leave Green open. I knew they would've figured that out otherwise but why even mention it if it's been working out for you? Let them come to that conclusion.

Tony wants the ship.... but he also sees how DG is stealing his final MVP award... The cheat strategy has been trapping the ball handler, affecting him and Manu the most......if they start guarding Green and with Manu in the starting line up, Tony will score at will.

MIAMI –*Enough is enough!

After allowing him*to set a Finals record with 25 3-pointers*(in just five games and on just 38 attempts), the Miami Heat are not going to let*Danny Green*have his way with them any more.“He has a knack for shooting, but he won’t be open tonight,”*Chris Bosh*said after the Heat’s shootaround at AmericanAirlines Arena on Tuesday. “We’ll see how he shoots it when somebody’s always on him.”

Bosh said that the Heat don’t have to make any adjustments to defend Green better in Game 6 (9 p.m. ET, ABC).“It’s just doing what we do,” Bosh said. “Last game, we didn’t do what we normally do. Guys were open and made shots.“They move the ball too well to have defensive lapses. So we’re going to have to trust what we do.”.................

Super!!! That means that Timmy will have much more room to work, and Manu & Tony will have more creases to exploit.

Danny runs off screens, or gets his from penetration of Tp/Manu. I am sure that Tony and Manu will be thankful for more operating room, and Timmy will enjoy one on one action with Bosh.

He is saying this to try and get into Danny's head. I wouldn't be surprised if Danny has a very hard screen set on him early tonight.

If they are going to turn their focus on Green, they will lose.

i hope they are dumb enough to not double off of him and focus their attention on a 4th option. this would be one of the dumbest coaching moves of all time. the thing is, they NEED to double green cuz noone can stop duncan down low or parker on the drive. so it's really them picking their poison. stay with green and we will kill them in the paint

[james evans]

i just hope the officials aren't calling the normal flops from lebron, chalmers, bosh, cole, and ray allen tonight.

...and Parker will go for 40...pick your poison.

[Duncan2177]

Bosh is all bark and no bite.

[GSH]

... he made that?
He wun' even open.

[BoviceRunsTrains]

It took Spoelstra 5 games to figure that out....

[spurspokesman]

Neal will show up. Book it, and if they focus on green big three will have some 1 on 1 situations. I have a very good feeling about tonight.

[ElNono]

Cool story Bosh... so if Green screens for Tony, do you stay with Green and let Tony drive to the basket?

[CosmicCowboy]

... he made that?
He wun' even open.

Damn Bosh is one ugly dude. Good thing for him he is an overpaid multimillionaire or he'd never get laid.

"doing what we do"

"what we do"

aka, "I'm a stupid parroting generically stupid " iow, he is what he is

THIS

[FuzzyLumpkins]

It's out of Bosh's hands. If they want to move Wade, Allen and Miller on Manu and Tony then that's great. They aren't good defenders. That is not suddenly going to change.

[Kidd K]

lol. Honestly, those comments seem like either them trying to trick the Spurs into playing away from him despite his success through the first 5 games in fear of the Heat keying on him more, or them just trying to take credit for defending Green better assuming he won't continue to stay hot.

Maybe I'm giving them too much credit though. I just don't think they would be so dumb as to give away their strategy well before the game even starts.
