Battier starts for first time since knee injury

Wait a second. It's not, "time to go big!"

Shane Battier started for the Heat on Saturday against the Jazz for the first time since injuring his knee against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Nov.24.

Battier started in place of Chris Bosh, who missed the game with a cold. The Heat was 7-3 in games with Battier coming off the bench entering Saturday night.

The Heat's starting lineup featured three 6-8 frontcourt players: Battier, Udonis Haslem and LeBron James.

Good solid win... Defense looks a lot better, playing with great energy, looks good.. Don't know how ya'll felt about Millsap... Hey, just a thought, I ride with my guys, whatever ya'll want, if he's not a good fit, we move forward, up to ya'll... Aside from that, good win...007...
