A: The playing style and roster in recent years did not exactly set up well for Haslem, especially with LeBron able to provide many of the intangibles previously provided by Udonis. Also, Haslem has lacked lift since his foot injury, a Lisfranc fracture, in Memphis four years ago. It will be curious to see how much, or how little, Haslem plays, considering Chris Bosh, Josh McRoberts and Chris Andersen all set up ahead of him in the power rotation. In the end, it likely will come down to Haslem's ability to defend opposing centers, in the way he stepped up against Roy Hibbert. With Andersen getting on in years, Haslem and Birdman could essentially function as co-backup centers, especially if Haslem also can provide a return of a reliable jumper to draw opposing big men from the paint.
