Anderson Varejao Can’t Stop Dwyane Wade on Fast Break in 2009 (Video)

Editor's note: The 2011-12 NBA season was supposed to tip off Nov. 1. With no games to watch, NESN.com will help fill the void by posting a dunk video every day until the lockout ends.

It seems like a long time since Dwyane Wade and LeBron James were on their own teams, but it was just two years ago that the two were competing against each other.

In November of 2009, the Heat and Cavaliers clashed early in the season.

After James was blocked by Jermaine O'Neal, Wade corralled the loose ball and pushed the ball up court. No one got in Wade's way and he attacked the basket. Anderson Varejao made a solid effort to stop him, but Wade jumped too high and put it down with one hand.

Check out the dunk below.
