Whats wrong w/ Bosh?
« on: August 23, 2006, 03:42:21 PM »
Man I dont get it, Bosh is one of my fav players in the league but he is playing horribly on the USA team, him and Brad Miller have the lowest ratings and talk behind the scenes is that they wish they had cut Bosh.  I find this so strange cause D. Howard and Brand are playing real well but Bosh just cant do anything right on the court right now, hopefully he doesnt bring this into the regular season.

for 1 its because he barely even sees any action on the court, and 2 is because every time hes on the court he doesnt get the ball because of guys like Wade, Lebron and Melo demand all the touches....one thing I dont get is how Shane Battier is seeing more minutes than Bosh, and Miller.  Before the tournament started, I seriously thought Bosh and Howard would be starting but I guess its a Duke thing with coach K and Brand/Battier :P

Yeah thats true and in no way am I trying to bag on the guy, I think Bosh is one of the best in the league already and has the potential to be as good as anyone in this league however I just thought he would play better internationally.  Its tough though I meen Jermaine Oneal and Tim Duncan stuggled a bit w/ international play also

Also, Brand and Battier could be getting more minutes because they are veteran players who can take on more of a leadership role with the team I guess.....But still, I think Brand and Battier playing for Duke and coach K has something to do with it.  Bosh likes to play the perimeter alot too, but there aint much room out there when Melo, Wade, LeBon and Paul and those guys are all out there.  Bosh has never really been a banger down low so you cant expect him to just camp out in the paint like they prolly want him to.

Yeah but I think Bosh will bang down low alot more this upcoming year he is going to have to, he is more perimeter oriented but hopefully he expands on his low post moves.

I think this year Bosh will play even more on the perimeter now that they have Bargnani and Nesterovic, those are two 7 footers.  Now Bosh wont have to play center all the time.  For a guy whos 6'10, Bosh is pretty much unstopable on the perimeter if hes matched up against someone his size.

I agree but if he banged down low more often he would be a better player.

Battier is really out there for defense. When your team has Lebron & Wade, you need a player who doesn't mind not getting a lot of shots.
