A: Part of it probably has to do with being shuffled so far down the rotation that any chance of rhythm or continuity was lost. But part of being moved out of Erik Spoelstra's primary eight-man rotation had to do with their uneven play in the first place. McRoberts has now struggled both as reserve and starter this week. Perhaps the games against lesser upcoming competition can provide a jump start. As for Green, it's as if all confidence is gone. I do believe the Heat will need one or both in the playoffs, especially if there is an injury or two. I'm still not sure how much is left on Amar'e Stoudmire's odometer. And if there is an injury to Luol Deng in the playoffs like the current thigh bruise, then the Heat could face issues on the wing. Green is a rhythm player, with the question now of whether there is enough time (or enough available minutes) to restore any rhythm. In the end, it could be a late addition, perhaps someone like a Dorell Wright, who claims what otherwise could be Green's minutes. What the Heat do with their final two roster spots could clarify where they stand with McRoberts and Green.
