I think Bowen is really good at pushing the envelope on this and reading the refs calls thereby interpreting what type of game he needs to play.

Lebron will do as he pleases. Bowen will have to adjust. The refs have probably talked about how they will call this matchup extensively. I look for Bowen to flop early on a drive in San Antonio to test the waters. Guaranteed Bowen already knows exactly when he will flop. He has probably watched every Lebron drive and looked for the times when he ducked his shoulders with his head away from the basket or looking down.
The refs have been more visible this year. I look for Pops to use bowen mostly on Lebron,but switch off the speedy Parker and tough Ginobli to bother Lebron! Heck...let him get his 30...Spurs can shut down the rest!
