the only problem there is that wade didnt face a defense like he did like what kobe is facing now...
the heat was the better defensive team in the 06 finals.


Yeah Boston's D is better but I know Wade wouldn't continue to settle for jumpers when you're shooting as bad as Kobe has been in the finals, and the few times he's tried to drive he's been successful. Also people forget Dallas D was looking good that season and everyone said there D b/c of Avery's system was a reason they got there and were huge favorites until Wade exposed it.

yeah I agree with everything.. but kobe is a better shooter than wade, and it didnt take long for wade to realize dallas'es defensive weakness..

this whole series kobe has been quadruple teamed if he tries to drive it in.. (maybe that why hes shooting so many Js?)

dallas had a real good D for that season, until ultimatly wade murdered them.

Where are all the Kobe lovers? No one can defend him today.He just seems like he does not care and rather go out with a smile. The guy is letting Rando blow by him,How is that possible for a person that is consider top 3 in the nba? The guy is trying to play team ball but his team is scared. Wade knew he had to take over to win and i just don't see it in Kobe. PS, I wanted Boston lol!!!

Doc Rivers beating Phil Jackson makes me less worried about Spoelstra.

Wade didn't face as good of a defense when they played Dallas, but he certainly has destroyed a comparable defense in Detroit. Detroit has been one of the best defensive teams in the league for the last few years and Wade absolutely had his way with them 2 straight years. An injury is about all that kept him from ending their season 2 straight years.

Why should I care.

He is no longer a Heat player. You just act like you care about PJ Brown, because you were probably rooting for K.G and the Celts. You probably don't care about PJ Brown, you just happy the Celts won, so you used PJ Brown as an excuse why you are happy.

Who said I don't care? :roll:

I appreciate what he did as a Heat player when he was here, and I am happy that he got his ring.

Rooting on the C's has NOTHING to do with this subject; granted I wasn't rooting for either team to begin with.

Heh, I think winning our championship in '06 has, in a way, ruined the NBA Finals for me. From here on out, there's always going to be a slight twinge of jealousy and bitterness whenever some team other than my own has the nerve to win a title. It's like an eternal case of sour grapes. Haha.

With that being said, I am happy for Posey and House. And I'm absolutely thrilled for PJ.

LMAO why would anyone need an excuse to be happy? Do you ever make sense. I think it's easy to root for guys that played hard for us and do well elsewhere as long as it's not against us. Hose, Posey and PJ were all fan favorites, hard workers and good guys that played hard for us so why would I not be happy for them.

Return to Miami Heat
