For some reason when I read that the first thing that came to my mind was that French mime street performer in Eurotrip.

I don't know man, he doesn't seem too upset about the team being 17-17 and I don't really care if LeBron was just having fun, we ended up giving away that game because he couldn't answer LeBron on his own turf. And what's this about more videos? The first video was nice and all, it was creative because it had a point to it, votes for the all-star game. He should go Rocky style and take a little break from this outside stuff, go back to your training, work on your game and concentrate on basketball, that's what you're paid to do. And his cousin and girl seem to be a distraction, I hope coach or Colangelo talk to him about it and get them some nice seats far away from the bench and team.

I agree with Kosta's last post. When I heard the interview, I thought, he's a cool guy, I didn't know he had that much personality, sense of humour, etc. He is a nice guy, but when you think of it, is this what you want your franchise player to be like? Focused on making videos for fun? I'd rather he be focused on playing more intensely, working harder at building up his body, etc. You want your star to be all basketball.

I hope he's not becoming another VC. Vince was always too caught up in being likeable, having fun. He lacked the fire and killer instinct of a Jordan, Kobe or Lebron. It's easy to be that way because you're going to get your millions anyway. I hope CB isn't that type.

Good....one?

I have never heard Bosh this candid before. I mean, I understand he's coming out of his shell, so to speak, but there was a period in that interview where it sounded like he was just rambling on about nothing. Bosh is usually very mild-mannered, well-spoken and polite; it was just an uncharacteristic interview, is all.


I agree with you. i think i like the silent Bosh more.

but TJ was the best. in the middle of his interview, it sounded like he was eating a peanut butter and jam sandwich.

He did the 1st video during the Xmas Break, on his own time. It wasn't an extravagant video that needed 3 days so I believe it had little to no cost towards his development or conditioning.
He can't be going at it 24/7.
It's easy to start poking holes in the system when things aren't going well but lets keep a perspective here. I work 10 hours a day, 40 hours a week. Sometimes I bring my work home with me, somtimes I'm forced to put in overtime, but in a 24 hour day I most certainly have a right to enjoy 3 to 4 hours doing the things I enjoy, non work related. Now I realize CB4 is making much more money and has a bigger obligation to fill but not to the point where taking 2 to 3 hours of his own time out to make a silly video should offend anyone. It's well within his right and has absolutlely no effect on the Raptors organization other than generating it much needed publicity.
