Depends if we use the 2000 or 2006 NBA rules. Each team really had a very good grip on the rules of their era. If the Lakers played in the 2006 era, Miami would beat them in 5 as Shaq would get called for traveling and elbowing a slower Shaq, plus Wade could explode by Kobe all day long.If Miami played in the Lakers era, Lakers would win in 5. As the prime Shaq would be able to do whatever he pleases in the paint.

In any era, lakers would beat the heat. Simple fact is that Shaq of 2000 is the most dominant player of all time. Then you have kobe who was at his best defensively that year.

Shaq of 2000 was a superstar. Since the nba beagn, superstars got calls. Shaq in any era would be allowed to get away with it. Also, shaq travelled? News to me. You compare lebron's travels to shaq's so called travels and you'll see there's no comparision. Also, shaq of 2000 was not the one accused of elbows. It was later, in 2001 when shaq kept on throwing elbows at mutombo and then in 2002 when Adleman of the kings complained with it. Shaq of 2000 was just a beast. The man was unstoppable. The man would get the ball in the post and would just straight up dunk on his defender The heat would be swept.Also, you said wade would explode by kobe all day. Well not sh*t dude, kobe would do the same. Wade's a poor defender, if he couldn't guard a slower kobe last season then what would happen against a kobe who was in his athletic prime? Kobe would do a better job because kobe was a beast of a defender in 2000.Your whole post is just a cop out. The lakers would sweep the heat in any era. Period.

Definatelly the 2000 Laker squad. Shaq was young and he dominated the paint, this season you can tell that he is getting worn out. Wade is great, but he is not Kobe, I think Lakers have a better chance of making it anywhere in the post season then Heat have.
