    Would they have won it in this years final? I mean what Bosh can do is only knocking down the J's and thats it. Scola, on the other hand, at least can make some noise in the paint with his crafty moves. Both are horrible on D though.

    You saw what Dirk did to Bosh? Just imagine Bosh with long flowing locks and Argentinian good looks because it would have been the same results.

    Bosh wasnt guarding Dirk except for a few plays. Haslem was most of the series.

    I dont think Scola's numbers would have been much worse than Bosh's for the series and I can guarantee you this....

    He would have brought in a much better and tougher attitude to that PF position for the Heat.

    Bosh's advantage is height and athleticism and unfortunately for the Heat, he used neither against the Mavs.

    Bosh is way ahead of Scola on the defensive end, and he was a big part of the Heat's success in the regular season.

    I wouldn't say he necessarily would have made them win more but I doubt he would have made them lose more. They could use the rest of the millions they are paying Bosh on getting other valuable role players to round out their roster instead of being so imbalanced.
