Assuming something like:

Gortat Seraphin
Pierce Gooden
Porter Pierce
Rice Silas Temple
Wall Miller

Is that about all that's left?

I imagine Blair will play

And Temple will get a lot of SG minutes and clank every shot

Miami is still weak up front, we should be able to exploit that offensively

Blair is suspended for the first game :/

As is Silas I believe, if he makes it.

Witt hardly ever likes to go small and Im sure he wouldnt do it for just one game when Nene & Blair comes back the next game. Basically I dont think he wants to alter things so much. He may go small some during the game but I think he wants everyone to get use to PP playing the 3 for us, not the 4. Also, KS has been great so far in Preseason and I think he still trust Gooden after last year. I think he will give them a shot 1st. Then if KS gets in foul trouble (which he probably will) or if Bosh is just killing us, then he may go small. I think KS starts at the 4 with Gooden being the backup 4 & 5.

I actually want Porter to start in Beal's place while he's out but seems like Witt doesnt want to go that route. I will be very interested to see if he gives Porter a shot in this next game
