They might want to consider shutting Wade down for some of the regular season and just letting LeBron do his thing to rack up the wins. Would pay dividends come playoff time so Wade wouldn't look like such a shell of his former self.

didnt the Pacers take them in a hard fought physical series all the way to 7 games?
I'd say they are the closest in terms of matchup, size, players in their youth/prime, etc.
