I'm not inclined to criticize RC at all for his lineup choice in the OT against Miami. They rolled with a Wade/Allen/Battier/LeBron/Bosh lineup for most of that overtime period, and that is just a tough lineup to match up with. The failure to play Brand against NO is more debatable, though I'd still call it defensible since Elton had played 28 minutes in regulation, and Dallas had good chances to win that game in OT that they didn't capitalize on.
