it really did because we didn’t have a true center and bosh was there to pull hibbert out of the paint. The real change to big man centers being phased out was the verticality rule that was abused by the Hibbert. Then Pacers fell off and the era of small ball lineups took over. The Spurs wrecked us doing small ball lineups but Tim Duncan played the same as Bosh

Yep, the warriors may have perfected it, but Miami laid the foundation. A non traditional big who can space the floor and having 5 people who can hit the three. Kind of crazy to think about how much the league changed in just the past 12 seasons.

Well, sounds like Bosh shook things up for the Pacers! Maybe they couldn’t handle the Heat in the center…literally!
