    Remember when it was cool to bash Bosh?!?

    Guy is an absolute A+ player. He's a force....

    I often wonder what it would have been like if Bosh had chosen Chicago.

    Not only would the Bulls be the clear favorite for the next 6-7 years, but I wouldn't have to watch Boozer screw us over against good teams.

    Agreed. He would have been one of the greats. He'll get overshadowed in Miami, which he seems fine with...but I've become a big fan.

    I'm guessing Bosh just didn't understand how good the Bulls could have been without him. He bought into Lebron and Wade's 'Oh, we'll win 8 championships with you here.'

    Truth is, he could have won 8 championships with the Bulls probably.

    I still don't think the Bulls with Bosh would be better than the Heat with Bosh. If rings were his desire, he made the best choice. These guys are starting to completely gel and they're unstoppable.

    Bosh would have to produce and be clutch in Chicago. He can ease into any role with the heat and get the same or better results.

    +1.

    People make fun of him for his effeminate mannerisms but you know what? He's a smart guy and a great player. I'm a big Bosh fan, I wish we had him on the Bulls.

    Bosh has a long history of being a great midrange shooter and highly efficient. He reminds me of a cross between Luol Deng and Boozer. He's like Deng in that his game is not flashy like Wades or Lebrons but he affects winning, and he reminds me of Boozer in that he's a fantastic mid range jump shooter.

    Bosh was good last year too. He played excellent in the post season, arguably better than Wade OR Lebron. Certainly more consistent...

    Hospital x-ray of Chris Bosh leaked to the public.

    Other than big contracts, bosh and boozer have no business being mention in the same breath. One is a stud, the other is a defenseless liability.

    I disagree with you there. Bosh is clearly better than Boozer but I don't think the difference is so great as to preclude a comparison. I was only comparing their mid range game, anyway...

    Yep. He just goes about his business. It's actually a great situation he's found himself in. I think he's more important to the Heat than Wade.

    I know it. I usually notice him torching the nets, but tonight it surprised me on the final box score.

    Maybe because I was enjoying Lin getting harassed.
