I don't think it's his added strength. I think that actually helps more with and-1's and would conversely lower his raw FTA/G (1 FT,not 2). I think by far the biggest influence on his FTA's has been the hilariously maligned offense. With Bargnani actually scoring, and a guy like Turkoglu becoming more of a threat, and even Jose needing to be checked as a shooter (or Jack driving), Bosh has a lot more opportunities to drive. Obviously 16 FTA's/g might be as much of a pipe dream as 15rpg, but based on what we've seen so far, 10 FTA/g is clearly an attainable goal.
9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.

Many times refs give him an hand... Donaghy teaches... :roll:


Like what Triano said to a ref at last nights game:

"If you're gonna help him, call a foul."

But those added muscles is really helping CB4 banging with those bigs down low.

He's actually starting better this year than he did last year when Sam was giving him everything. I think this time it's just actual improvement.
