Whose run was better?
Which 3 year dynasty would win?
I think the Lakers could beat the Heat, their size gives them a huge edge and the Heat would have problems forcing turnovers against the Lakers.
Younger Kobe on both Wade and Bron....+ young Ariza and younger Metta.
No contest on the backcourt..........
Frontcourt doesn't even need mentioning.
LA in 6 games max. This heat teams aren't as balanced as the 08/10 Celtics.
I do however believe that in terms of dominance against their relative competition, the Heat are better/will be better as a dynasty. But that's all relative to competition.
Who's going to stop LeBron on the Lakers? Who on the Lakers is fast enough to run with the Heat?
LA wouldn't be able to play Gasol/Bynum because Miami would just run them out of the gym. Odom/Gasol wouldn't do much to LeBron/Bosh.
If Miami runs: Chalmers/Allen/Wade/Bron/Bosh, they win this.

If Boris Diaw could slow down Lebron, I'm sure a prime Ariza could do something. Take a look at Lebron's numbers against the 08-09 Lakers.

Sorry but both the Ancient Spurs and Ancient Celtics were able to keep up very well. It's all about execution and those Laker teams executed. As for who's gonna stop Lebron - no one he will get his. Who's gonna stop Kobe? Lebron, or Wade :roll: :lol ...try going under a screen and sagging off Kobe - burned. Get too close, - beat off the dribble or a screen + Perk nor Dwight is guarding the rim. There is just no way.
The Heat just won't make it past 6 games any way you spin it. Chalmers and Cole ain't gonna do crap against Fisher and Farmar.
Heat win in 6. Too much Lebron/spacing. I think Wade gets up for a matchup like this as well.

Diaw bodied Lebron
Artest easily checks him

Ariza did a better job.

Nobody wants to talk about Ray Allen? He got that Celtics team a ring against the Lakers and saved the Heat this year
I'd have to say the Lakers. They had so many weapons...

Yeah and if Lebron schooled Paul George and wasn't bothered by Prime Sefalosha in the 2012 Finals, I'm sure he'd school prime Ariza.
The 2009-2010 Celtics would beat the Heat, let alone Lakers

Paul George
lol
And Sefalosha held Lebron to 46% shooting (5% below his average).
and Ariza shut him down in 08-09.
