Coming into Wednesdays Game 5, the New York Knicks are depleted at the guard position. Barron Davis went out in Sunday's game with a dislocated knee. Iman Shumpert was lost in Game 1 with a torn ACL . The Knicks are left with Mike Bibby and Toney Douglas. Douglas, the former ACC-player of the year, has not played in the series and his shot in Game 5 comes down to matchups.
“It all depends on who they play,” Woodson said. “If they come in with Cole, that would be a better matchup for us, Toney on the ball with Cole bringing the ball up, speed against speed.”
Norris Cole is a 6-2 rookie point guard for the Heat. Toney would have a better chance at guarding him rather than 6-8 Lebron James.
Wednesdays Game 5 will be at 7:05 et on TNT .
