Vote Bosh For All-Star Starter

TripleMKE · Post #1 » by **TripleMKE** » Thu Dec 13, 2012 11:02 pm

Forgive me if this isn't thread worthy but...to my absolute shock, KG is ahead of Bosh in the first all star ballot returns. Bosh is having one of his best and most efficient seasons so it would be an absolute shame if he doesn't get the start (considering he's never started before).

Please Vote for him here, http://allstarballot.nba.com/ballot?ref ... _searchbar

lol weird. I literally came here to make the same thread, clicked new topic and decided to go back to see front page first.

I agree. Bosh has been getting pushed under the bus for many things through out his career. He deserves the start. But in reality it comes down to popularity and Bosh is probably one of the most criticized players in the league. People do not appreciate a "3rd wheel" (everyone thought so) joining 2 of the top players in the world and gets maybe 2 -3 plays ran for him an entire game and still is one of the most efficient players in the league to date.

Bosh started the 2007 ASG. The lineup was:

Arenas
Wade
LeBron
Bosh
Shaq

Bosh needs to start having some big games on national tv. They could become the first team have 3 all-star starters since the 1990 Lakers.

Didn't the celtics do it?

At least not during the recent big 3 era. I don't think Pierce nor Allen have ever started an All-Star game. The only starter recently has been KG ('08-'10). Before that it was Antoine Walker in 2002. However, they did have 4 players selected overall (no starters) in 2011.

I'm very upset about this. Bosh has been under looked his entire career. But the good news is, KG only has 8000 more votes than Bosh.

Come on folks, let's out vote KG fans.

Id love to see Chris get in, but do you think he really cares about starting? it's just an allstar game. im not sure if he cares.

Every player cares. I'm sure every player would rather start than come off the bench.

Got my vote. I also voted for the Heat vs Wolves game to be on NBA TV for fan night. It was tied 39% to 39% for the Heat game or Bulls vs Celtics. I went to vote then like 10 min later they announced that the Heat game won with 40%. Maybe I pushed it over the top!? lol doubt it but I helped 8-)

Not like he would be devasted if he didnt get the start but I'm sure he cares. Especially for someone like Bosh who doesnt get recognition for a lot of things when he should

to be honest, im not sure Spo deserve to. his rotation are still robotic, doesnt show a great feel for the game while it goes on. still very stubborn and unwilling to adjust - wheather it's playing a over the hill Haslem or keep getting burned by the 3's.

Yeah at this point in time Spole hasn't really shown much to give him a big push for any type of coaching award.
It is pretty obvious Lebron and Wade take most of the burden when it comes down to final plays and scenarios. Spole will draw up but Lebron will give his imput and sometimes see something different on the floor and run it.

Means nothing to me though. Spole is so young and won't even reach his prime coaching ability until probably 10 more years which is very good for Heat fans.

Prime coaching ability? What the bleep is that?

Anyway, no chance the Heat have a better record than the Knicks going into the all-star break. New York is going to win a lot of games.

It means he will reach his max mental potential. He is still young, he still makes mistakes, he does not think on the fly like an experienced 20-30 + year NBA coach. He still lets his emotions get the better of him from time to time. He will reach his coaching potential many years from now. I do not see what is hard to understand.

I cant believe it was even close. Bulls and celtics have sucked this year. Wolves will have rubio back. That should be a fun game.

Couldn't believe my eyes that KG was ahead of Bosh. I wouldn't be surprised if it was Pierce, but not KG. Thanks for starting the movement, triplemke23.

In 10 years the Heat might not have the luxury of having a prime Lebron, Wade and Bosh
