Bosh drop rethorics and show some heart! 

Post#1 » by Vlade Divac » Tue Feb 12, 2008 2:52 am

Yeah like clown from TSN said he was so furiously upset in the time-out urging his team mates to push and play hard. And what he did show in this game? Bricks form the penalty area. Well worth of a all-star.

Bravo to Calderon and Delfino whose shots were not falling but he had a heart to go inside and show his captain how it should be done.

I sorta agree. When I heard that on TV, I was like "Well you're the one playing like sh|t". Sometimes, when games are tough or when true superstars come into town, Bosh disappears. It's becoming a common occurrence and it's damn annoying.

Yeah 'cuz Oberto and Duncan had nothing to do with his failure to get into the paint. Delfino and Calderon got into the paint almost every time because Bosh was drawing the interior D away from the bucket, and providing those openings to them.

When they made the mistake of leaving him open, he dunked on their asses.

Oh please, way to pick. Bosh averages 9ft attempts per game on the season. Best for bigs. Im guessing the rest of the bigs in the league are soft?

Bosh's heart was in the right place but he should've considered how hypocritical he appeared.

I saw a lot of unnecessary forced jump shots out there. It's one thing if your shot is falling but if it isn't you should either drive or dish it back out - not take fadeaways.

Exactly!
LOL, I love how haters hide in their shells and come out every 2 weeks when Bosh has a bad game.

The spurs took care of Chris Bosh tonight. The only reason you saw Fino and Calderon attacking the rim is because they have the perimter ball handling to take it to the rim. Some basketball fans to this day dont understand that a PF doesnt have the same skillset as a Lebron, Kobe, VC, TMac, Manu.

Just because his shot wasn't falling tonight doesn't mean he's not the leader of this team. If it wasn't for Bosh tonight Calderon and Delfino wouldn't have half the room to operate that they were given.

Clearly when watching a game you only care about one thing which is putting points up on the board, but watching Bosh you should know he is doing a lot more out there on the floor to help his team win.

Players have bad games sometimes where they cant get it going. This was one of those games.

Anybody else sick of these threads popping up after every sub-par game Bosh has?

I like Bosh, but he's going to have to realize that he needs to expand his game in order to truly lead a great team. With where his game is right now if teams can stop him from getting to the rim he becomes ineffective. No other part of his offensive game is even above average except for his ability to beat bigs off the dribble, so when we face a great defense they can stop him fairly easy. This will also be what holds him back in the playoffs. If he played with more court awareness and was able to make better passes it would not only free up teammates but it would open things up for his own scoring as well. The pace he plays at plays a big part in this as well.

On the Spurs side Ginobli was obviously huge, but the passing ability of the Spurs bigs was what seperates their offense from ours. In tonights game Duncan, Oberto and Horry combined for 10 assists. Our top 3 bigs have never combined for that many assists in a game and Bosh is the biggest reason for that.
