People who want to dislike the Heat's formation can take a quick look at his stats and see that they dropped substantially since Toronto, ignoring that he went from being by far the best player, to the third best player behind two of the best in the world. His rebounding numbers dropped, but he no longer plays down low as much, because LeBron and Wade need space there. They also ignore that he's become nearly as good as Dirk Nowitzki at long 2's, which is generally an inefficient shot (unless you hit it at the rate the two of them do), which spaces the court very effectively, especially given Miami's 3 point shooters. He redesigned his game to fit into a really unique system that has ended with them in the Finals every single year.
He then tops all of this off with really insightful thoughts for a high level athlete (not saying athletes aren't capable of this, but they unsurprisingly tend to dedicate the vast majority of their mental bandwidth towards their sport), and a fantastic sense of humor. In Toronto he ran a YouTube campaign to get support for n All Star bid (or maybe dunk contest invite?), and he's become a meme because he loves photo bombing interviews. This isn't normal HN material, but since Chris Bosh came up, please, look at this GIF at explain how you can't like him: http://slacktory.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Chris-Bosh-Miami-Heat-GIFbomb.gif http://slacktory.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Chris-Bosh-M...
- wmboy 13y agoMan, the first paragraph made me think I'm at www.reddit.com/r/nba/ Although I agree with your comments I still think it's an inefficient use of his talents (stepping further outside to make room for LBJ and Wade). Either way, I'm expecting him to have his best statistical season this year, which may mean he'll become too expensive for the Heat.
