My take on the Bosh/Dirk pairing is simply this. While they're clearly not an ideal combo defensively as both are PF's who lean to the skinny side of things, they're arguably the two most dominant - and here's the real kicker - most flexible scorers at the big positions (PF/C) in the league. They'd keep one another fresh because they'd be able to sub for one another so well, meaning energetic offensive end-of-game execution from both would be consistently attainable even in the most tightly contested games, they'd regularly put opposing front courts in foul trouble, and having both out on the court together would be all but guaranteed to expose a mismatch in Dallas' favor every trip down the court against just about every team they'd face.
