Like a Bosh 

1. Spend the last days of the season on the bench with a bruised nose.

2. Abandon a city after 7 years for more TV exposure.

3. Create enormous hype for your non-existent potential and then let your new team down when it matters.

4. Lose 60-pounds by cutting of your dreads.

4. Become the victim of a humiliating facial from a 6'1 point guard.

5. Score 35 points in a game and still be criticized.

LIKE A BOSH

"Go to Georgia Tech,
Become a Raptor,
Hit the weight room,
Get a nickname,
Lead the franchise,
Gain the fans trust,
Make the play-offs,
Date a crazy b*tch,
Piss Lebron off,
Beg for fans votes,
I'm an all-star,
Been on Leno,
Win Olympic gold,
File a lawsuit,
Win domain names,
Predict a cold-front,
Get some tattoos,
Make a DVD,
Get my nose broke,

Sit some games out,
Let my nose heal,

Sit more games out,
Lose the fans trust,
Tweet my face off,
Can't buy League Pass,
Hate Toronto,
Cut my dreads off,
Go to South Beach,
Become a third wheel,
Flex my biceps,

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Go on entourage,
Hit the Hamptons,
Tuck my shirt in,
Toast some white folks,
Drink some chocolate milk,
Start the season,
Get on TV,
Forgot to rebound,
Make a poster,
No one loves me, no one loves me."
"Coach wants us to work, we want to chill, he has to meet us half way" (Chris Bosh, post game interview. Nov 17, 2010)

-LeBron complained that he played too many minutes...

-Pau Gasol said he enjoys playing extra minutes, and LeBron wonders why he has zero rings? Like a Bosh

“Like a Bosh” idiom, ~2010: When someone or something desires the limelight only to wilt under the newfound pressure.
Skeets: What's going on? What's wrong?
Tas: The stapler, I just bought it. The guy at the store said, "it is great, it's going to work well." And it is not working. At all.
Skeets: Oh yeah, like a Bosh.
Tas: Huh?
Skeets: Like a bosh. The stapler, you thought it was going to be awesome. You get it, it sucks. It doesn't do anything. It doesn't even staple.
Tas: What do you mean?
Skeets: Like a Bosh.

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
