    Default How hard would it be winning a championship with these guys as your frontcourt?

    Your Center/Enforcer, last line of defense whos supposed to dominate the boards and defend the opposing bigs




    Your PF, defensive bruiser whos guarding the David Wests, Hibberts of the world, and having to outrebound them





    How many players could win with those guys as the PF and Center, being the main defenders, bruisers, post scorers, rebounders on the team?

    If we had Three-Peat Bosh instead of injured Dwight we'd be favorites to win it all.

    Perhaps a half-season rental, while getting progressively worse in the playoffs

    As long as you can duck any team in the playoffs with a big taller than 6'9 you should be fine

    Not sure about that, MJ had Dennis Rodman aka the only man to guard Peak Shaq 1 on 1 and live to tell the tale


    The entire Bosh species would get extinct if he had to guard Shaq

    MJ got it done with Cartwright/Longley/Grant, so I think he could get it done.

    In the East, while having the 2nd greatest SG ever as a teammate as well? Almost every all star in the league would win championships with that.

    Horace Grant = 6'10 250 pounds with elite post defense

    Cartwright = 7'1 245 pounds elite defense and rebounding, basically a rich man's Mosgov


    Longley = 7'2, white man's Roy Hibbert


    So he had 2 guys taller than 7 feet, and another 6'10 guy who was an elite defender.

    Dont forget that half of 2012 run was played with various combinations of Anthony/Haslem/Turiaf/Pittman on the center

    Yup, and the sad part was they were usually the 3rd best player on the Heat
