Lakers vs Miami

[CJH248]

Lakers are paper champions, worry about The Thunder 1st before thinking about facing The Heat who have added a couple of nice pieces to an already Championship team..Lakers have Howard and a bunch of stars but all pass their prime..Speed kills & thats something The Laker's don't have like at all..Kobe was getting ate up by Patty Mills in the Olympics...Wtf do you think Wade in his prime is going to do to him? & I respect Kobe a lot, I think he's the 2nd best player after Jordan but he's up there in age with a lot of miles on his body & does not run the floor like he use to..Lakers do have a chance but I still think the young guns speed, skill & will will overwhelm them..Too OLD..The league will try to help though, they want that dream matchup of Lakers vs Heat.

If you think Wade is in his prime you are smoking something... He's coming off an injury and he's had one almost every single year.

These type of threads are stupid and just turn into pissing matches between fans about individual matchups. No game is won on an individual matchup the majority of the time. History has shown that Dwight has great success against the big 3 Heat team. Going 2-2 one season and 1-2 last year. With lesser talent take that for what its worth. In the end if you want get into individual matchups the only clearcut advantages are Lebron for Miami and Dwight for LA. Bosh is a better scorer than Pau but overall he doesnt do anything better than Pau but at this point its hard to defend Pau's play in big games recently. In the end, the game would come down to who executes the best and who plays hard not some fantasy matchup. Both teams have strong pros and cons to why they would win or lose a game or series against the other.
