Re: Chris Bosh

Why does everyone keep saying the Heat have no play book?... lol They literally run plays all game. Its only when crunch time you've seen the one on one play.

All game? No. They run the 4 man standing around looking while one player dribbles a lot IMO.

I believe he would have performed much, much better under the system Chicago has. Unlike Miami who's offensive playbook consist of nothing but iso plays and cherry picks, Chicago's set half court would have been much more suitable for his style of play. As of now, he wanders around on the offensive side of the ball, watching and waiting for Wade or Bron to pass him the ball. And when he does get the ball, he's rarely in a position to make a play. Instead he has to create one and by then, the defense has adjusted and is ready for him.

Can't disagree. Based on skill, I think he would have been a great fit next to a true center like Noah. But knowing what I know now, I still believe he has little heart based on some of his quotes.

Re: Chris Bosh

I think Bosh is just comfortable being the 3rd option. I'm sure if he was the first or even second option he can put up the numbers he did in Toronto. He just doesn't seem to care enough an is content. Heck he probably doesn't even care that hes a joke in the media. He just sitting back playing basketball an having fun in Miami with his $$$. I also compare his game to Gasol except for I feel Gasol is more complete offensively an makes smarter plays with a higher basketball I.Q.

From the games I've watched and I'll admit to only seeing no more than 10 so far this season. They seem to explode on offense in the 1st half from mostly cherry picks and quick scores. Yes, they run plays but those seem to consist of Wade or Lebron doing some off the ball movement to get open. Sometimes they'll drive, other times they'll kick it out. Not much in terms of variety. I do love their inbound plays though.

Second half comes and then the offense falls apart. And when Miami is playing catchup, the entire offense runs through Wade and Lebron. Lebron or Wade handles the ball and they seem to improvise moreso than anything.

**Xs and Os** · 03-08-2011, 12:23 PM

Bosh needs the ball more. The problem in miami is when one of the big three isolates, the others stand still. Lebron does not know what to do without the ball in hands. He literally drops his arms and waits to either crash the boards or run back. Bosh can hit jumpers, so while he's waiting around during iso's, there is a benefit. That is what all of the Heat have settled into and it has them 20+ games over .500.

Most players can't just switch roles. If you are in your comfort zone, you can use all of your skills. Outside of it, if you are an offensive player, now you're switching to turn into a Marcus Camby type. If that's going to happen, the coaches have to make a major push for that.

Bottom line is that Bosh was a poor choice to pair with both players. With one of them, he's a great choice but with both he gets put into a role a bit too far from his wheelhouse. Bosh would still be an excellent fit on the Bulls or Lakers, and he could be a better interior player for the Heat, but the big three are not making the sacrifices to put him in a position to do that. It has to be a compromise; run more plays through him but demand both privately and publicly that he be the best rebounder possible. This would make him more active and more responsible. Unfortunately the focus of the Heat is makin sure that Brade are both able to be isolation rhythm players rather than expanding their respective skills. For Bron it's in the post, for Wade it's catching and shooting. For both it's about learning to be decoys once in a while.

Comparing Bosh to Pau is extremely unfair. Pau may have been and may still be a little soft sometimes, but he plays with heart and he rebounds much better than Bosh.....

Dude treats the paint like he thinks there's an infectious disease inside it. That moving pick tonight was just stupid. He honestly looks like he’d rather be doing ANYTHING than playing basketball right now.

Re: Chris Bosh

From the looks of it, he sits around and watches the greatness that is Lebron and Wade and he looks in awe. No seriously, being a 3rd option on offense is killing his game.

Chris Bosh is sadly a case of "the grass isn't always greener"

Hmm, I think I butchered that a bit but you get my point. I wonder if in some small way he regrets going to Miami? Probably not.
