Don't know if this was posted before. It's a long biography of Bosh...lots of info in there that I didn't know.

Chris Bosh was a member of the National Honor Society before he was a member of the National Basketball Association. He knew how to use a slide rule before he perfected his slidestep. And Chris was a pro in the classroom long before he began schooling pro opponents. In short, he was always one of those kids who could do anyhting he set his mind to, or be anything he wanted to be. The question in Canada is, can he be the player Toronto Raptor fans have been waiting for since 1995? This is his story

I can't believe I just read an article that wrote emergence and Loren Woods in the same sentence.

Lots of cool tidbits though. Thanks for posting!

Chris may soon become a figure of national importance. Canada has already lost one NBA team, one MLB team, and a bunch of hockey teams. If Chris can realize his immense potential

A little bit OT, but I've noticed so many players being linked to being Chris Bosh's best friend. First it was Loren Woods IIRC, then when we traded for Ford, he became Bosh's best friend. Right before the draft we heard about LeMarcus Aldridge being best buddies with Bosh, what's the deal here!? lol.

First off, Chris Bosh IS the player we'v wanted/needed since 1995.

Well he'll have to run a tough campaign when he's up against Shane Battier haah What with that anyways?? I don't get it? And is he a democrat or republican cuz that'd really change my opinion on him.

Am I the only one that finds interesting the note about Bosh retaining his quickness because of his (relatively) small, size 13 feet? I'd never even thought of that as a contributing factor.

Odd that I wear the same shoe size as someone a foot taller than me, too.
