For sure with Jimmy out the other team gets a look they haven't seen and that can take a minute. It's the coaches though, Riley with Ewing when he was lamed, his disciple with Jimmy, who make the silk purse out of the sow's ear. Spo last night was the master bricoleur, starting K-Love, playing him only 12', giving way to Jovic--Ira Winderman wrote that may be the recipe going forward (it's not)--bringing Josh Richardson, a typical "Heat" stiff, off the bench at just the right moment. Spoelstra in these circumstances is the definition of a great coach. he can take his'n and beat your'n and he can take your'n and beat his'n.
