I know Tanner somewhat eluded to this in the Pistons recap post when he talked about ET potentially playing more minutes to d-up DWade. I'm wondering if not only that will happen, but maybe if Doug would or should possibly consider going with a bigger starting lineup of Jrue, Iggy, Thad, Elton, and Hawes? Yes, I know Thad is great off the bench and it's good to have Meeks out there to open up the D, etc, but that also means Jrue or Jody will have to guard DWade and we all remember what he did to us this year (especially in the last Heat game). I would worry about a bad half-court offense being made worse by taking out the only real shooter in Meeks, but I just don't see how Jrue/Jody can even contain DWade. At least with a bigger lineup, Iggy could stick Wade and Thad could have the size (not the quickness) to at least try and stick LeBron. Or maybe ET should start instead of Meeks and have him guard Wade and Iggy guard LeBron? I really don't know about ET and Iggy together on the offensive end though... Thoughts? Should we just stick with the usual starting five?
