I love this. Also, it should be spammed every time someone says we don't have an offense and in every thread where someone suggests we replace Bosh

Great article. LeBron is so cerebral. BBIQ off the charts. And Bosh is the second most important player on this team. Fk anyone trying to talk **** about him

I agree that Bosh is under appreciated, but I think that is overdoing it. Bosh opens up the lane a lot for Lebron and Wade, but having Lebron and Wade to take advantage of that is the key. Without Bosh hitting those shots, that throws the Heat offense off quite a bit, but those are the times when James and Wade turn into gods and get it done (think Pacer's series in 2012; also game 7 of the finals this year). Conversely, I don't think Bosh is really able to fill the void without Wade in big games.
Then again, god-mode Wade may not be sustainable anymore. It's complicated, so I'm not sure how relevant the "who's more important" debate is.

Yeah, the offense has been designed in such way that they're all necessary parts at this point. One piece doesn't really fit without the other, or at least fit as well.

Ok let me read this first.
Honestly I was about to jump onto that "let's replace Bosh" bus after losing to chi tonight.

meh, maybe in 2011-2012. Bosh really doesn't do his job anymore. We get a good game from him here and there and then act like he's Dirk
