The Heat's Big Three: Are they a dynasty?
Serious question.
2 out of four ain't bad at all, but does it equate to a dynasty in this league?

Re: The Heat's Big Three: Are they a dynasty?
They were together for 4 years.
Nowhere near being a "dynasty."

Big Booty Hoes!!
Re: The Heat's Big Three: Are they a dynasty?
4 seasons isn't long enough.

Mini-Dynasty.
Sort of like the Kobe/Gasol Lakers, the Bad Boys or Goin' to Work Pistons, Hakeem's Rockets, 70's Knicks and Celtics, Lakers and Bucks...teams that were contenders every year for 4-6 seasons, but won 2 or fewer titles.
True Dynasties...3 or more titles, 6 or more years of contending...
Mikan Lakers (48-54)
Russell Celtics (57-69)
Showtime Lakers (80-91)
80's Celtics (81-88)
Jordan Bulls (90-98)
Shaq/Kobe Lakers (99-04)
Duncan/Pop Spurs (99-14)

I don't consider them a dynasty. What do people think about the Tim Duncan Spurs? 1999 to present? 5 titles in 15 seasons?

But what about the Knicks????

Great college starter
Re: The Heat's Big Three: Are they a dynasty?
Nah, mini-dynasty maybe. An interesting question would be if the Heat reach the finals for a 5th straight year (certainly possible) would that count toward continuing their mini-dynasty? If they win a title in the next 2 years does that make it a legit dynasy or do they start over since it's not "the big 3" anymore?
Would be similar to the Bulls in '94 had they won? Same team, many of the same players, but not the best player.

no.
I think the "4 finals in a row" really brings a lot of noise to the dynasty talk.
impressive, but the truth is that if they switched places with the Thunder...the Heat would have, at most, 2 finals appearances and 2 titles.
I know we could play that game with a lot of teams, but the Heat played in one of the worst conferences I can remember for like 3 years. And not only did it allow them to work less in the regular season, but the playoffs were easier as well.
I'd put it on par with the Kobe/Gasol Lakers...and under the Bad Boy Pistons.

Lakers did the same in the three years and less talent imo.

They were 2 Wade sabotages away from being the GOAT team from the 2000's
would have had 4 STRAIGHT rings
Not even the Bulls did that
