Boston runs a 5 out offense one of the best in the league, the zone works great against it because you can guard the 3 and play the passing lane. Boston kept trying to run its offense against it and kept turning the ball over.

Remember there is no one in the post in a 5 out offense so there is no need to have a big frontline. Rebounding is more about speed than size and it is why Russell Westbrook can average a triple double.

Once Boston got the ball in the middle, drove to shoot not to pass they were able to score pretty easily. 5 out offenses don't work well against zones, but Miami will get SWEPT if they run that against the Lakers who will use their size to destroy that defense.

5 out offenses have worked very well against the Lakers all year and I expect Miami to force the Lakers to play small to match up with their shooter and put AD on Bam.

Miami needs to hit 12+ 3s a games to have a chance.

Very few college run 5 out offenses and only Nova runs it well at high level.
