Paolo loves Battier
Wade's game had to take a back seat to Lebron. This is why Heat fans find you so comical when you discuss all the possibilities of Lebron/Irving/Love, yet you fail to realize that the big 3 experiment in Miami didn't exactly start off smoothly and there were times that they struggled.
Bosh had to modify his game as well so that he can stay out of the paint so that Lebron could drive the lane more freely. This, once again, makes it comical when you talk about Love's rebounding presence, as Lebron thrived off smaller lineups because it spread out the defense.
Wade has carried the Heat before. But in this instance, he won't have to do it with an improved supporting cast as well as another all-star in Bosh next to him (I say supporting cast referencing players like Granger, Deng, and McRoberts. In no way am I saying they're even remotely close to Lebron in skill set.)
Wade struggling in the Finals was more of how the Spurs defended the Heat as opposed to Wade struggling. During the first three rounds, Wade was pretty damn good. We'll see how Wade does now that he looks like he'll be shedding anywhere between 10-20 pounds. But Miami's not making the playoffs as a 6th seed. They'll likely be a 3rd/4th seed behind Cleveland and Chicago (if Rose stays healthy).
Heat fans are secure about their team and don't have to trash other teams to make themselves feel better about their own team.
Dude. Bosh lost his balls. He's a perimeter player averaging 6 boards a game that's afraid of contact until I see different.
And thibs put 150k miles on deng without changing the oil once. Dude is cashed. HE WAS LEAKING SPINAL fluid for shut sake
What did I say shouldn't be taken into account?
My point was that some were much harder to earn then others.
They all hold equal weight historically, but modern day championships are much harder to achieve then they were ' back in the day', and especially the Minneapolis days.
Uh, we know what it's like to win modern day championships and "Back in the day" championships.
The Clippers achievements include hanging selfies up in the rafters where title banners are supposed to go.....oh shit, this was supposed to be the opposite.
The Clippers DON'T hang up selfies.
