I like Sonny starting.
He's energetic like derozan

Boooo. All that guy does is look for his shot.

This is his perfect chance to take advantage and possibly see quality minutes.

what a joke, is Triano serious? Weems is a terrible basketball player, can someone tell me anything that Weems does well?

Meh. I like Sonny as the "energetic teammate/cheerleader" guy, but he always seems to take/miss bad jumpers.

Sonny is a good shooter when he gets his feet set.

After what Belinelli did against Kobe by forcing him to shoot tons of tough jumpers, Belinelli deserves to start.

Trying to match Dwade at the two with our most athletic player. If it doesn't seem to be working out, yank him and insert Wright.

You guys are overreacting...

Would rather have Belli come off the bench instead of Wade drawing a foul or two on him; potentially taking him and his offence out of the game. We'd resort to Wright and Amir as our scorers off the bench.... :-?

Sonny is easily the best 1 on 1 perimeter defender on the roster...

Agreed. Belli has been killing it off the bench the past few games. We just need him to stay hot and to hustle.

Weems starting is a joke!

Start Wright (experience + defence)

Bench:

Jose
Beli
Weems
Amir

You still have Calderon off the bench who can set up Amir and Wright... As long as the team plays zone defense, we should be able to prevent Wade's dribble penetration. And considering the Heat allow their opponents to shoot 36% from three, I'd definitely want Belinelli out there.
