[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

lakers had an asian guy before lin??????

[plowking]

Lebron has owned all of his rivals in head to head matchups. The only one that is close is Carmelo.

Should answer the question.

2009 lakers were unstoppable. Even kentucy wouldn't be able to beat them.

(but in all honestly, '09 lakers)

First of all, who gets home court? I'm guessing it's 2-2-1-1-1.

Heat was stacked, Lakers had basically Kobe and Gasol. If Bynum has a good series maybe the Lakers would win cause Heat didn't have no one to rebound and guard a guy like him.(see Hibbert) Lakers would kill the Heat on the glass, Heat would have a lot of fastbreak points.

Kobe, Wade and Lebron would obviously get theirs. Gasol probably would too but he can be neutralized if guarded properly but I don't think they have someone to do it.

I think maybe 2010 would be better for the Lakers since they had Artest to guard Lebron.

Long story short, I think HCA and role players would dictate a lot on this one.
If the Heat has HCA, can find a way to guard Kobe and the frontcourt Miller, Mario and Battier are hitting everything (like the Thunder series) Heat wins in 5 or 6. Otherwise, Lakers in 7.

Lakers, Miami has no one to defend gasol & Bynun effectively, Ariza can defend Lebron, Odom would feast as well & pjax 》Spo

Assuming if that dude is healthy.

It could go either way. On paper, the Lakers got the bigs to give Miami problems tho the Heat beat the Lakers a lot in the regular season when the big 3 together,, they weren't the same Lakers.

[JohnFreeman]

Heat sweeps

[fiddy]

Heat sweeps

...sweeps its locker room after loosing 0-4 to the Lakers

[keep-itreal]

Lakers would sweep the heat team

That Gasol Bynum frontcourt was the main reason why that team was so good.

and they had Lamar Odom, versatile player.

and then kobe who lieks to chuck

[Eric Cartman]

08-10 Lakers can beat any Lebron team.

Laker nation give me some love

Spurs? Leonard?

Wouldn't call what LeBron did to them "owning" them. Same with the Celtics, considering his first choke and the ref help needed to beat them a second time around.

LOL at comparing a 2/5 to a 5/7.
