Chris Bosh endeared himself to Miami Heat fans not only for his ability on the basketball court, but also for his wild, unpredictable and hilarious sense of humor. 

There are a number of reasons why Chris Bosh’s untimely departure from the Miami Heat (and potentially the game of basketball) tugs at the heartstrings of fans not just in Miami, but everywhere.

Not only is Bosh revered for his unique skillset that made him an eleven-time all-star and twice a champion with the Heat, but he’s universally loved for the joy and humor he brought to the arena every night even in the face of immeasurable pressure and criticism.

Maybe Bosh’s finest hour, or few seconds at a time, came following the game when he deployed his now-famous videobomb antics at the expense of teammates LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. Whether it was flashing a look to the camera or dancing across the screen you could always count on Bosh for a light-hearted moment following one of the dozens of Heat wins over his tenure with the team.

When Bosh’s jersey rises to the rafters at American Airlines Arena, it will be for the championships and basketball impact, but also for moments like these five that endeared him to an entire city and fanbase.

5. The Papa Bosh Bomb

The true beauty of Bosh’s videobomb skills was that he rarely ever needed a prop. He could bring the house down with just a quick look to the camera. Here, Dwyane Wade and Will Manso think they’re getting out of the arena without an interruption as Bosh strolls by with his daughter in arm, but not even that will stop him.

4. The Mario Chalmers Headlock

This is one of the best Bosh videobombs because not only does it completely pull LeBron James away from his interview with Jason Jackson, but it also encompasses the relationship Mario Chalmers had with his teammates and fans. Every now and then, someone felt like putting him in a headlock.

3. Staring Down LeBron

LeBron is typically the one giving out a menacing look, especially on the court, but Bosh returned the favor by eyeing the King down after a win. The look of disgust became a freeze frame keepsake for Heat fans to properly express how they felt about James’ departure back to Cleveland.

2. “Good Sh**!”

The setup is just as good as the delivery. Typically goofy Bosh comes sprinting in from the other side of the floor to find LeBron and Jason Jackson, hijacks the mic and then lets an expletive slip on live television. Bonus points for the failed attempt to remove the top of the microphone.

1. “As CB pops into the frame…”

The Bosh Bomb to end all others. Everything from emerging from the bottom of the screen to the look and LeBron very seamlessly working “as CB jumps into the frame” into his interview, this is the quintessential Bosh moment.

Needless to say, the internet had some fun with this one even putting Bosh in the next Avengers movie.

No one was or will be quite like Bosh.
