|
| | | MIAMI: GUARDS: He's a shell of his former self, but the Heat will have to squeeze more regular-season minutes out of DWYANE WADE. His effectiveness could depend on whether or not he finally develops a three-point shot . . . The point guard situation is getting muddied, but the Heat dug deep to re-sign MARIO CHALMERS. He'll top the PG depth chart again . . . NORRIS COLE is likely too small and too erratic to ever be a starter, but he'll continue to play solid minutes with the second unit . . . The Heat seemed to grab SHABAZZ NAPIER on draft night because he's a LeBron James favorite. Now that James is gone, the rookie could be the odd man out in the point guard rotation. He'll have to overcome subpar measurables. FORWARDS: LUOL DENG is most certainly not LeBron James, and he won't fill anything resembling James' new role. He does give them a strong role player, a defensive stopper and secondary scorer . . . JOSH McROBERTS will facilitate the offense at times and generally serve as a floor-spacing, stretch-4. Miami is built to go small with him and Chris Bosh up front . . . DANNY GRANGER is trying to reinvent himself after an injury-filled couple of seasons. He can play both forward spots and might fit best as a stretch-4 in head coach Erik Spoelstra's system . . . UDONIS HASLEM is essentially a mascot during the regular season . . . JAMES ENNIS could break into the rotation later this season. He was tremendous in Summer League play. CENTERS: CHRIS BOSH is the best player on this team by a significant margin. He'll be the focal point of the offense most nights and should flirt with the 20-10 numbers he used to put up in Toronto . . . CHRIS ANDERSEN will often pair with Bosh in the frontcourt, taking some of the defensive heat off Bosh against bigger lineups. Because of this important information, no power rating or computer score edges are posted for this game. | | ORLANDO: GUARDS: VICTOR OLADIPO, who will miss the first four weeks of season with a facial fracture suffered in a late October practice, will play off the ball more, allowing him to slash from the wing. It's a more natural role for him . . . With Jameer Nelson jettisoned, ELFRID PAYTON will step in as the starter at the point. He has an enormous transition from the Sun Belt Conference, but the quickness and athleticism are there . . . EVAN FOURNIER never found consistency in Denver, but could be a valuable wing shooter on a team that needs it . . . BEN GORDON was signed with a very 'tradeable' contract in mind. The Magic are hoping he shoots well enough to draw some suitors . . . LUKE RIDNOUR is a veteran insurance policy behind Payton . . . WILLIE GREEN can be an effective second-unit player . . . ROY DEVYN MARBLE seems like a D-Leaguer. FORWARDS: The Magic brought in CHANNING FRYE to provide some floor spacing and a veteran presence, both much-needed . . . TOBIAS HARRIS will likely have to play some more small forward. He has the offensive skill set to do it, but defense will continue to be an issue . . . He can play both forward spots, and AARON GORDON should be one of the league's better defensive forwards right off the bat. But for now, his offense is limited to dunking . . . It's a big year for MAURICE HARKLESS, who has yet to establish himself as a rotation-caliber player. With Harris and Gordon capable of playing the 3, Harkless could lose major minutes . . . ANDREW NICHOLSON has a ways to go after a disappointing second season. He's likely on the outside of this rotation. CENTERS: NIKOLA VUCEVIC is a cornerstone player in Orlando because he's big, and he does everything just well enough. He's not a game-changer on either side of the court . . . KYLE O'QUINN has had some good moments in garbage-time games the past two seasons. It's enough to keep him on the roster. |

*Heat-Magic Preview* ====================
By MATT BECKER STATS Editor
Miami (6-6) at Orlando (5-8), 7:00 p.m. EDT
Chris Bosh believes the Miami Heat can easily fix many of the problems that arose in their latest blowout loss to a Western Conference power.
Facing an Orlando team with significantly less offensive firepower would seemingly help them bounce back, but the Magic proved in their last game they can't be overlooked.
The visiting Heat look to avoid a fifth loss in six games Saturday night as they try for a 10th straight win over Orlando, which looks to build on its thrilling comeback win.
Thursday's matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers was over early for Miami (6-6), which fell behind by 24 points in the first quarter and ended up losing 110-93. The Heat lost for the fourth time in five games had no answers for Blake Griffin and company as the Clippers' starters accounted for 87 points on 64.8 percent shooting.
"Good team like that, down 20, you can't do that," Bosh said. "We can't do that. We're not good enough to keep making mistakes."
Some good news for Miami, however, was Bosh appeared to find his shooting touch. After averaging 13.5 points on 28.3 percent shooting in his previous four games, he scored 28 and made 9 of 17 shots, finally showing he could pick up some of the scoring slack with Dwyane Wade out.
Wade, averaging 19.8 points, has missed the last four games with a strained left hamstring and his status is uncertain.
Prior to being routed by Los Angeles, Miami held six of seven opponents to 96 points or fewer, and Bosh thinks the Heat should be able to get back on track defensively.
"The encouraging thing about it is a lot of things can be corrected," said Bosh, who hit 16 of 19 shots in two games at Orlando last season. "Positioning on defense, where you're supposed to be, were a lot of the mistakes we were making that we can fix. It's really just being ahead of the play. ... (Saturday) is another chance to fix those things and hopefully take a step forward after taking a couple back."
Although Orlando (6-8) doesn't have the same pedigree as the Clippers, it showed Friday it can still put up points in a hurry, storming back from 23 down in the third quarter to beat Charlotte 105-100. It marked the Magic's largest second-half comeback since rallying from a 24-point deficit to beat Miami on March 3, 2011.
On Friday, the Magic made 15 of 21 shots in the fourth quarter in outscoring the Hornets 41-21. Evan Fournier scored 21 points and Tobias Harris added 17 and 16 rebounds for Orlando, which was coming off Wednesday's 114-90 loss to the Clippers.
"There was no panic and we talked about that at halftime," said Magic coach Jacque Vaughn, whose team was down 11 at the half. "I told them we would get a chance to get back into the game. This was a great lesson for a lot of guys in the locker room."
The Magic now try to end a nine-game losing streak to Miami in which they've been outscored by an average of 11.0 points.
Miami starter Norris Cole will be a game-time decision after he dislocated a finger on his left (non-shooting) hand in the second quarter Thursday and didn't play after halftime. Cole has played in 160 consecutive games, one shy of tying Grant Long for the franchise's second-longest streak.
