I'll repsot this here with the gif that shows my point :
Bosh is going through the process of becoming Dirk Nowitzki 2.0.
He's becoming more and more of a jump shooter, and lately a 3 point shooter. His game is moving farther away from the paint. The reason is obvious - Lebron and Wade are 2 superstars that need the paint as open as possible to be effective. They're both better paint players then Bosh, that's what you need to remember. So it's a sacrifice worth making from a team stand point. Bosh knows this and that's why he's changing his game in this direction for the past years, he really is all about winning and sacrificing.
The "problem", or the reason he struggles with the change at time, is simple - Bosh isn't quite at the Dirk level yet. Not in terms of comfort level or as a reliable shooter. He only began shooting a more serious amount of 3's this year. His shot is still kind of streaky. He's still adjusting to the role of a spacer. His confidence in his shot could get better. He's still learning what exactly are good shots for him, and how to still effect the game when his shot isn't falling. That's a key aspect he needs to get better at.
But I believe he'll get better. His 3 point % would go up I believe. He's probably going to take even more 3's, which will create even more space for Wade and LBJ inside. Hopefully he also becomes a bit more consistent with it, and learn to do other things to get into games (mainly get to the free throw line when struggling from outside, and fighting harder for rebounds regardless his scoring). As a team we'll also get better at finding him in the right spot, and feeding him when open. Right now we're freezing him out at times, we can do a better job as a team at maximizing his scoring talent.
Having a good defending big that can also hit long jumpers, and especially 3's, is EXTERMLY VALUABLE in today's NBA, and ESPICALLY FOR A TEAM WITH WADE AND LBJ IN IT.
Riley's job IMO is to help Bosh and find someone to help him carry the burden inside. that means - get a young athletic big that can defend, rebound and take some pressure off of Chris. Just like Dirk needed Chandler, Bosh needs help inside. Get him that help so he could flourish and light fools up.
