How will Miami stop the Lakers frontcourt?
Just curous, if Bynum is healthy he is going to cause them huge problems. Will Wade/Lebron brillant play be enough in a series with L.A's length?

Re: How will Miami stop the Lakers frontcourt?
Joel can handle Bynum.He won't shut him down completely but Bynum won't be able to score easily.Gasol and Bosh cancel eachother out.I also think Odom and Miller cancel eachother out.

Re: How will Miami stop the Lakers frontcourt?
They won't. They can't. There's no way they can contain Gasol, Bynum, Odom, and Artest. Too many options there.

Good High School Starter
Re: How will Miami stop the Lakers frontcourt?
They could put LeBron at PF/C and just run the Lakers right out of the building. It's worth a shot.
If the Heat played straight up with their normal rotation, they'll be in a losing battle in the frontcourt.

We're being hysterical here.
Anthony and Haslem are very good defenders. Bosh gives you height and so does Ilgauskas.
My question is how will Lakers stop LeBron and D-Wade?

This is all they can do. Pray for a Bynum injury.

Child, please
Re: How will Miami stop the Lakers frontcourt?
Do you really think that Pau Gasol can out-rebound Lebron James if he makes a concerted effort to play inside and pound the glass? Sure he has 2 or 3 inches on him, but if Lebron devotes himself to out-rebound Pau then he is going to win that battle. Same deal with Bosh and Bynum.
Also I'll bet you that Bynum gets injured badly again this season, just a feeling.

Anthony wont do anything. Lakers always dominate small PF & C's (ex Boozer,Millsap,etc). The size is too much. & Bosh does not cancel out Gasol. Gasol goes to work on Amare,Garnett,Ducan,etc ... he does not struggle with scoring or defending with these PF & Bosh will be no exception. Bosh will have harder time with Gasol,than Gasol will have with him. & Miller and Odom are two differnet types of players so I dont think they cancel each other out. They are things that Odom does that Miller cant & vice versa. But the Lakers bench is much better than Miami's.

Decent college freshman
Re: How will Miami stop the Lakers frontcourt?
They won't, the only team that can beat LA is a healthy Celtics team. They have the bodies to throw at LA's frontcourt, Miami simply doesn't.

if they are depending on Lebron to be an elite rebounder no chance.

lol
Ilgauskas 7'3"
Magloire 6'11"
Bosh 6'10"
Pittman 6'10"
Randolph 6'10"
And you're underestimating shorter players which is a foolish thing to do.
Bynum 7'0"
Gasol 7'0"
Odom 6'10"
Ratliff 6'10"
Looks like Miami has the advantage in frontcourt category size wise. Don't you think?
