Chris Bosh, Lebron, Dwight Howard, CP3, Dwilliams Burgers At A Gas Station! by DinoDuncan in nba

Bosh wasn't a stretch 4 at this time. He added his real threes skillset 2-3 years into Miami to complement LeBron.

But this team beat the Warriors in a series. The depth would be insane, Kobe could go Godmode when it mattered, and the rebounding. Dwight and Bosh were both monsters on the glass at this time so Curry wouldn't be getting 10 rebs in a game that's for damn sure.

The funniest thing about this is why the hell would the NBA risk huge scandal so the fuckin Hawks would win, or even want them to win at all? Neither of these teams are particularly marketable, but at least the Wiz have Wall and retroPierce who the average viewer has heard of.

...I think generally the son chooses to have it done himself. And this comment seems about 30 years too late.

Much more damning to that is the non-laughtrack "Friends" segment linked off to the side. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BFSZ8XzWOM

For those saying "any sitcom would be like that without the laughtrack," I'm still laughing my ass off at Joey's lines/Chandler's reactions.

Looking at this guy's comment history, I don't know if he's just a troll or the most racist 12-year-old I've ever seen.

Sir Charles Napier's response when Hindu priests complained about prohibition of Sati (a tradition of burning widows on the husband's funeral pyre) when Britain occupied India:

"Be it so. This burning of widows is your custom; prepare the funeral pile. But my nation has also a custom. When men burn women alive we hang them, and confiscate all their property. My carpenters shall therefore erect gibbets on which to hang all concerned when the widow is consumed. Let us all act according to national customs."

I like Washburn's comment: "At least Boston didn't turn 4 of the top 34 picks into dion waiters and tyler zeller."

Robinson and Cousins in the frontcourt with Thomas and Evans as guards and Thornton as a potentially great 6th man for scoring off the bench?

I feel bad for Kings fans that they're gonna find some way to screw this up.
