Apparently he has abdominal pains or something. Ron Rothstein thought he would be ready to play against the Celtics, but the pain is lingering. I watched a bit of the Heat vs. Bobcats game the other night. Chris Quinn is the replacement PG as of now. From what I saw he isn't a very talented PG. He isn't overly quick. He can't pass the ball out really well also. But he does make smart decisions with the ball, and he has a decent mid range jumper. I think Dwyane can take over the playmaking necessities while Williams is out. I think they'll be okay.What do you guys think? Will the Heat still be able to surge? How well will Quinn fare?
I think Quinn will do ok. I guess it would be better to put Dwade at the point but he's much better playing off of the ball and being the SG. If Quinn doesn't work out, Rothstein should move Wade to the point and have Quinn backing him up and Dorell Wright and Eddie Jones sharing the SG spot.But in my opinion, I think the Heat will do ok. They have Shaq back and he's been doing really good considering the fact that he just returned. He as well as the rest of the team seem to have adjusted to playing together again so I don't think they'll have a problem getting to the .500 mark or above it before the All Star Break without their main point guards in J-Will and Payton.
We'll be fine...we've played pretty much the entire season with him in and out of the lineup. We're used to it. I have to say I'm sick of all his crap lately though. He had offseason knee surgery supposedly to fix his constant tendenitis problems, but then as soon as the season starts he's out for a long period time with the same old problem, now just when he's starting to look alright, he goes out with this. Oh well though, nothing you can do, his age may be catching up.Payton should start. Then Wade/Quinn will take over secondary duties.
