He would be even more limited at the 2 than Landry is. He would need to improve his handle and move much better without the ball. That is why Landy has been somewhat useful. His movement without the ball has been getting him easy layups and dunks which is important since his jumper has gone south.
Ok the real starting lineup will be
Davis----Chalmers
Shumpert-Wade
Fields---Lebron
Anthony--Bosh
Chandler-Turiaf?
Will miami try to go straight up and put Bosh on Melo? It would put Bron on Fields where he could play center field by giving up the three to Fields. However Fields cutting ability combined with Melo's passing could create problems. Cross matches for Miami: Lebron on Melo and Bosh on Fields. Again, Play this just like last night and have Fields cut, run out on breaks, and use sets with him at the high post and Melo on the wing to get Fields going.
Cross matches for NY: Melo on Lebron, Chandler on Bosh, and Fields on Turiaf? Turiaf can over power Fields but if Fields works his but off and fronts Turiaf it will be ok. Plus it could create some nice defensive strategies against Miami PnRs.
Novak will come in and guard Mike Miller or Shane Battier.
Novak is fine off the bench.
Not who starts, its who finish.
Novak been on the floor when the game is on the line.
12-4 Woodson don't need fans telling him the line up.

The only thing Mike Woodson needs is another healthy lead guard wearing number 17.
Bulledat.
I like Fields starting because if his slashing ability...He usually takes it to the hole in the opening quarter to get the game started...Fields production comes in the first quarter as well and don't want to lose that...I'm down on Novak a little...The league has figured him out and he offers nothing else...We end up playing 5-4 if we aren't draining threes...Teams are defending him at the three point line, the secret is out...Less Novak not more..

Hopefully we get him back during the playoffs sooner than expected
He's not quick enough defensively at all. He has trouble staying with 4's. 2 guards will leave him in the dust. It's tempting to have his shooting more often but face it were a defensive team and Novak would only interrupt what's working for us
