If bosh were to return... 

Post#1 » by FlashKing » Fri May 25, 2012 6:02 pm

Should he come off the bench?

The chemistry right now between LeBron and Wade is in another atmosphere. Bosh coming back to the starting lineup I fear might disrupt that, just like Jameer Nelson did for the Magic when he returned to replace Rafer Alston who was playing very well.

What do you guys think?

Nah, but he might have limited minutes. He must work has way back in, the chemistry must be between all 3 of those guys.

I do think he needs to come off the bench initially. just to limit his minutes. Plus being able to bring one of the big three of the bench would take this team to another level, because then Bosh could come in and be the main guy for an extended period of time.

Hell no. Even injured, Bosh is better than anyone else except Wade and Bron. Unless he can only play very limited minutes, I think it's important to get him starting and back into the groove quickly. He'll have to find his offense in the flow of the game, but there'll be plenty of opportunities. Those times when we kick it out to Shane or UD, it will be Bosh sitting there with his sweet and reliable stroke. That's what I want.

I think the good news is that Joel and Turiaf can anchor the center position for significant minutes now, allowing Bosh a chance to play his true position where he can score on anyone. PEACE.

No way. He needs to start. Now is not the time to try to "ease" someone back into playing. This is the playoffs. Whatever rust he has, he has to get off in the next round so this team can be in sync going to the Finals.

Bringing Bosh off the bench might be a good idea, but the time to find that out is during the regular season. We can't afford to be experimenting

No. They should just try not to take away shots from Wade and Bron to force feed him as soon as he returns. Let him get into the flow of the offense with those kick-outs that would usually go to Haslem, or one of the 3 point shooters.

Why do people always suggest someone should come off the bench when he was out just because the other two have stepped their game up. You need to understand that it's natural for them to produce more due to an increase of opportunity and need. You also need to understand that the more weapons we have out there, the more dangerous we're going to be and Bosh certainly is an upgrade over anybody not named Wade or James out there. We obviously need to keep our offensive flow going, but that's possible as long as Bosh doesn't force the action too much.

nah, like someone else said, that's an experiment. We can't experiment right now.
