The Heat want to use Ray Allen in a variety of offensive situations, not strictly as a 3-point shooter.
Ray said he "could never convince [Doc Rivers] to allow me to go down in the post," but the Heat sound ready to deploy him down low. We're not expecting a post-game renaissance from a 37-year-old SG on a stacked offensive squad, but the concept has merit. "When [opposing teams] want a guy to chase me they bring a small guy that's quick," Allen said. "So you roll to your next stunt and you post them and get them out of the game ... You put the other team in so many complicated situations that it forces their defenses to play more uncomfortable."
