As of right now, 21-year old rookie Norris Cole would probably be the starting point guard for the Heat.  I’m starting to think that the Heat might be better off playing big in 2011-12 and using LeBron James or Dwyane Wade at the point in order to get Mike Miller into the starting lineup.  The Heat could also bring back Mario Chalmers, who is a restricted free agent, but he won’t be cheap anymore.  Regardless of what the Heat are going to do at point guard, I see them bringing in at least 1 natural point guard after the lockout.

The Miami Heat don’t have a starting point guard right now, unless they are willing to give the job to rookie Norris Cole.  Cole is the only point guard on the roster right now, unless the Heat are comfortable with D-Wade or LeBron filling that role.  I don’t think they are comfortable with doing that though.  I think that they are going to try to bring Mario Chalmers back (as he is a restricted free agent), but some team might price him out of the Heat’s range.  The Heat might try to coax Jeff Foster or Erick Dampier into taking a cheap 1-year contract to help the Heat at center, where they only have undersized Joel Anthony.
