James said it wouldn't be a surprise if he guarded Nate Robinson in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals on Wednesday after Robinson scored a game-high 27 points in the Bulls' Game 1 win.

"It wouldn't be a surprise if I matched up with him," James said Tuesday. "But I'll take the challenge on [defense]."

Part of the challenge for the 6-foot-8, 250-pound James will be keeping up with the 5-9, 180-pound Robinson, but it wouldn't be the first time James has checked a Bulls point guard. After the Bulls won Game 1 of the 2011 Eastern Conference finals, James guarded Derrick Rose and the Heat won four straight.

"Nate is a scorer, man," Heat guard Dwyane Wade said. "We got to do a better job of contesting his shots, but Nate's going to score the basketball because he's going to shoot. We can't worry about that. I think there's other things that we have to worry about more than Nate. We've seen it -- when Nate gets on a roll, there's not many guys in the league that can get hotter than Nate that make shots.

"I think we got to do a better job of contesting his shots. When he gets in the paint, do a better job of making sure that we jump and contest his shots, but besides that he's going to make some tough shots."

Aside from Robinson's performance, the Bulls player whom the Heat stars found themselves talking about most on Tuesday was Jimmy Butler. The Marquette alum has caught the Heat's attention after dropping in 21 points and grabbing 14 rebounds Monday. He also spent most of the night chasing around James and played all 48 minutes for the third game in a row.

"I think it's very impressive for him to be able to do it," James said of all Butler's minutes.
