its about even.

i dont know really. The Heat were great of both ends.

the offense wasnt really good until the 2nd year when they moved bosh to the 5. before that they were more efficient with wade or bron on the bench. they also had no defined roles until that second year it seems.

the cavs know, this is lebrons team 100%. kyrie second in command, love has to take whats leftover since hes not a ball handler. their chemistry is definitely better up to this point.

Wade was still Wade tho. Bosh was overpaid but still was a good. The heat offense was better with Bosh playing center him playing the 4 games Anthony the starting 5 spot which help clogged the lanes very well.

the Cavs might be better because Mike Miller and Haslim were hurt for most of 2011 and this current Cavs team is FAR more balanced

This team is scary good. Better than the Heat during their first season together. :ohlawd:

After the trade yeah, they definitely have more talent than the Heat their first year.

Kyrie & Bron fit together much better than Wade and Bron though, so while Wade was better than Kyrie, Kyrie is much better playing off LeBron because he can hit the 3.

maybe but Wade was just that much better.

there is no doubt that this current Cavs will be as good if not a better team with 2011 Wade instead of Kyrie Irving. Wade isnt the shooter that Kyrie but an elite shoot block guard with almost equal abilitiies as LeBron can make up for his lack of outside shooting.

The Cavs wouldnt have lose that many game with LeBron sitting out with Wade.


Wade was better, but he and LeBron never meshed together, we know how LeBron and Wade played together and it was never that smooth offensively. That first year they straight up just took turns handling the ball and iso-ing, you remove Kyrie from the Cavs and that's one less shooter they have on the floor, he's hitting 40% from 3 on 5 attempts per game.

Yeah.
This team doesn't have the lock down defensive intensity the Heat had even though the Cavs are solid on D.

Its close honestly. I never expected JR to come in and be all over the place on defense...he's playing better D than Lebron right now which is why he's still in the starting lineup. Its not even just 3&D he's rebounding and creating shots for himself.

The Cavs are a lot more diverse on both ends than the 11 Heat.

Joel Anthony presents were undervalued. He had the combination of great lateral quickness for a center and shot blocking which gave Derrick Rose a lot of problems. He just a shytty rebounder and can't score even when he is opened.
