Wade or Allen

I want to know what you Heat fans think about choosing who you would have play with this team, a prime Ray Allen or a prime Dwayne Wade. Now some might say that is a horrible question because Wade is better and so would choose him. However would he be a better fit with Lebron because prime Allen maybe the beast 2 guard to ever pair with James in terms of how they compliment each others game. Prime Ray gives you around 23 5 4 and we know what Wade brings along with better defense, play making and rebounding. Also if you choose prime Wade that means old Allen is not on the team and same applies if you choose prime Allen.
So who would you choose?

Granted a prime Allen would get a ton of open looks and knock a lot of them down, I still have to go with Wade. 09 Wade teamed up with LeBron right now would be insanity. His defense and explosiveness next to LeBron would be a great combo.

Your absolutely right and I would choose Wade as well. But on the other hand you can argue that Ray is more durable, will play more games and can age better with a core of Lebron and Bosh. The Heat have a great record with Wade out of the line up. But if you choose Ray and Lebron gets hurt for a stretch that is where Wade would replace Lebron's production a lot better (although Lebron is made of titanium and never gets hurt).

I take Prime Wade. He was such a force. Still is when he comes to play.

Prime Wade was, in my opinion, the second best SG of all time. Yes I would prefer to have that.

Um...is this a serious discussion?
Prime Wade all day any day. Prime Wade was also pretty durable compared to other years.

Prime Wade, mainly because of his defense.
How about a prime Wade and Allen with our Prime Lebron.
That would be the most unguardable trio ever.

This version of LeBron with a peak Wade? That would just be unfair.

09 Wade was the best i've ever seen, from every game winning shots here and there (especially against the Bulls and Nets), from every defensive blocks (Tim duncan, Brook Lopez etc.), that sweet jumper and especially that thunderous dunk on Varejao lmao, that Wade could arguably be the second SG of all time.

You ask this question to objective fanbase your gonna get a much better discussion. There is no way a heat fan is going to not say prime wade.
Objectively allen would fit very nicely next to Lebron, but the sheer talent of Wade and Lebron next to each other is what makes this team so good, If the only change you make is allen for wade the past two years (even prime allen) you would not be able to defend at the level they have been able to defend and therefore they are worse. Wade and Lebron being all time defenders is what makes up for the shortcomings in size, it would be like replacing pippen with allen, it would make the team worse.
