I have never questioned Lebron and Wade bothe are superduperstars ...
I question coach and bench and Bosh to some extent
TBH though getting Miller, House and retaining Haslem was better than I tthought they would do ....
They will be fine ..... even though Stern hates the fact that two organizations, Toronto and Cleveland, are not irrelevant, he has to be happy that off-season basketball talk overshadowed MLB All-Star game and the season .......

Wade and Lebron are both great defenders on help and on the ball. Don't kid yourself. Their defense will be one of the top in the league imo, at least on the perimeter.
definitely agree .....
I still think overrated ...
What they will be good at is transition getting steal etc andfturning those in to easy basket and that in itself will make them scary ...
BUT with the load they will be carrying at times I dont see them as the best defensive team ...
But I do think they will be good.
Where that help will hurt is the willingness to go for the highlight play teams that execute should be able to take advantage of their gambling but their athleticism is scary ...no lazy passes aganst the Heat ...
I don't think they will be the best defensive team, but damn good. But their ability to have play makers instantly transition from defense to offense will be unmatched.
Eddie House is a lot better than Steve Blake. Especially come playoff time, championship experience with huge clutch shots. Fisher ain't the only 3pt clutch PG if the Heat-Lakers meet.
and the way you tried to deconstruct Miller, Haslem, and all the others is funny, because you didn't do it effectively.
If Miller is a 3pt sharpshooter, well, that's more than what Barnes can do offensively.
Theo is 37 yrs old. Juwan Howard and him cancel each other out.
and Odom has a better post up game than Haslem, but Haslem has the better jumper. also, Haslem plays better defense than Odom does.
Eddie House > Steve Blake
Mike Miller > Matt Barnes
Udonis Haslem = Lamar Odom
Juwan Howard = Theo Ratliff
James Jones = Shannon Brown
Then you look at the starting lineups.
Carlos Arroyo < Derek Fisher
Dwyane Wade > Kobe Bryant
LeBron James > Ron Artest
Chris Bosh = Pau Gasol
Big Z < Bynum
It's over Los Angeles. Enjoy this off-season, it's your last as champs for a long time. Kobe will be sent into retirement, and Lakers will be left rebuilding again.
Actually I don't think Kobe will retire anytime soon and the Lakers won't be able to rebuild quickly either. They are going to be stuck with that stupid contract they gave Kobe for several years up until 2015. If anything the next several years should be comedy watching Kobe go awol considering he has a great track record of acting re ed when his teams aren't on top. I can guarantee it him and Artest will go at it in a few years. Its going to be fun watching Kobe going bananas especially knowing the lakers won't be able to get rid of him when he is old and has lost all of his athletic abilities.
Pau and Bosh is a legit discussion
Wade and Kobe is not. Wade has been better than Bryant for a few seasons now.
Lebron on the Bulls > Miami SuperFriends
STILL
Actually dumbass you are still over the cap even with both of those guys off. I factor Artest is going to exercise his player option in a few years since his value is going to decline so factor in his 7 mil contract, plus you will still have Blake and Walton's contract along with Kobe and Gasol. The Lakers are are pretty much in cap for half of this decade unless you drop Kobe and Gasol. Its pretty much impossible to get a max player with those two guys contracts counting against the Lakers Cap. You are an idiot lol I doubt Dwight and Melo are going to come and play for the MLE.
You are mentally re ed and I definitely look forward to your melt down when the Lakers get walloped in the Finals by the Heat.

Make a poll.
Again re do you know how to do math are you really that stupid lol. If you calculate the math with Kobe and Gasol contract those two contracts alone are close to go over the cap. Who are you going to trade to clear out cap space ? Are you suggesting trading Odom and Bynum to clear cap space? Even if you do trade them you are still over the cap when you combine Kobe and Gasol plus your crap role player contracts. Are you speculating you going to be able to trade Bynum,Odom, and your scrubs for a franchise player like Melo and Dwight. I just don't see those organizations being stupid like the Griz to accept your trash. The Gasol trade was a once a life time trade I don't see that happening again for the Lakers anytime soon. Also re it goes to show you are a bandwagon fan when you implied the Lakers have never gone a period of time without having great players. how about 1991-1996 your best player was Nick VanExel and Ceballos. Those were two were definitely all time greats right there.
Enjoy your trolling days nobody will pay you any mind next year when the Lakers are no longer champs. You will be just the fool everybody laughs at when you post.
thats what I thought
scurrreedddddd
Actually I owned you in the argument you pretty much couldn't come up with a good comeback ot. You are pretty much claiming fantasy trades and FA moves are going to save the Lakers. Is Chris Wallace on speed dial you brain dead re to bail out the Lakers with another stupid tradelol. Fact is after this year your team is garbage for the rest of the decade. I guess you can look forward to your team getting demolished this year by the Heat that should be entertaining.
You don't have nothing on me when I made those comments that was referring to the rest of the board. I was referring to how the rest of this board pretty much always responds to your stupid re ed threads. I'm one of the few in here who have never done that. Its not your trolling that ever bothers me the thing that gets to me is how people are stupid enough to respond to the dumb threads you create. Its fun watching your unraveling trying to convince everybody that the Lakers will beat the heat. You know your team is screwed maybe you should do some voodoo on Lebron,Bosh,Wade because thats your only hope now. Only thing sucks you won't show up next year when the Lakers aren't on top because you are pussy.
You have pretty much have summed up yourself in a nuts .
Pau > Bosh
Wade > Kobe
By pretty much the same margin for each.
Which one the shoulder injury one or the one when Kobe was making crazy Game winners ...
One right in Dwades face as time expired ...
Not sure I agree but is IS debatable ...
Well, Kobe is still a top talent, but Wade is better right now.
So is KD and LeBron.
Ask Ron artest who is better ...who he had more success guarding the past 2 years ...
Durant or Kobe ...
Wade is really good at throwing his body at the defense and praying for a whistle. Will he be remembered as one of the 5 best players ever like Kobe Bryant? Hahahaha, nope.
They are going to be able to coexist because they're probably already having a secret kinky gay love affair. It wouldn't surprise me at all if they had a threesome with Bosh. Hopefully this gay love affair will distract them during the regular season and help the Heat implode and not even make the playoffs.
