Could the 2015/2016 Warriors beat the 2010-2014 Miami Heat?

[MalikX]

They're destroying the Cavs.

That's a given.
But the real question is could they have beaten the Heat?

Steph, Klay, Draymond and the rest are one of the GOAT squads but, Bron, Wade and Bosh were running through the league back then.

The 2011 team beyond the big 3 was either trash or injured. Even with as good as James and Wade and Bosh were looking back, I'm impressed they made the finals. They had no depth or shooting or coaching. Chalmers was the only guy besides them who was healthy and useful on both ends of the floor. The 2012 and 2013 teams could have competed. The 2014 team aged really quickly. The biggest issue is matching Steve Kerr against Erik spoelstra. That's as bad a mismatch as you can get.

 

[Primetime21]

they would easily beat the 2010-11 team and probably the 13-14 team too.

and why is would they beat the Heat the "real question" it's the Cavs playing and getting beat

 

[Foxmulder]

2012 team has has the best chance. 2011 and 2014 team would have absolutely no chance.

fukk...I wish I could see that matchup. It could've been a GOAT level rivalry. Golden State just came along a few years too late.

Different level team altogether.

Heat went 7 games against that aging Celtics Squad, no?

 

[Jordan>>LeFrozen]

2012 kould beat him

We would have needed to reload. The supporting cast aged in dog years.

You're aware bosh basically missed the first five games of that series right?

Yes, and still a different level team altogether.

Dubs barely missed a beat without Steph. Who is a bigger piece to them than Bosh was to the Heat.

Just a better team top to bottom.

Celtics that year won games on heart and intelligence. Something most of the teams from this postseason are lacking. Most notably the Thunder.

This thunder team beats those Celtics in 4.

I don't know about all that. I do know that no team in this postseason would beat the '08 Celts

Warriors in 6 breh.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Warriors in 6 breh.

No. Celtics would bully them. We're not seeing grown man basketball this year. Curry's leg wouldn't make it past game two.
