Why isn’t this a consideration? From reader Rhys:
“One of the keys is playing Hump more on Dwight. Don’t double Dwight. PG’s be aggressive. Wings slash when they collapse on Bosh, stop shading away from him. Be men, play with some pride. Get a motivational speaker in there. Hypnotist. Anything.”
Treat the 60% free throw shooting Dwight as a young-Shaq and hack the bejeezus out of him. Let Rashard try to penetrate (here’s a secret: he can’t). And then only Hedo’s a threat to score 20. Bogans/Nelson/Evans are average or less offensive players. Dwight will get 30-35. So what?
Raptors would have 24 fouls to use - Hump, Rasho, Primo, CB4. (I’d like to see Primo irritate Dwight to some extent.)
Put Joey in an ugly oversized suit, activate the spindly Maceo, feed him some HGH. And that’s 30 fouls.
Beats the game 1 plan, no?
