"You've got to watch people's legs," Bosh said Saturday. "I know guys want to hustle and everything but we all want to play and provide for our families and have a job."
The play in Question:
If you ask me there's no intent on Asik's part to injure Bosh. Asik was already in the dive when Bosh stepped in front of him. Granted it looked like it hurt, but Bosh didn't really have the right to call Asik out.
Bosh for his part has gotten off to a slow start in Miami, but he has been a consistent contributor to the Heat. Everyone in TO knew he would leave to capture some more time in the spotlight. Instead, he's not even mentioned as an all star anymore and appears to be feeling sorry for himself for being exposed as a second rate all-star. Without LeBron or Wade in the lineup the Heat can't win. Can the same said about Bosh? Worse still, a lot of players are making fun of Bosh since his free agency move. I think Shaq's RuPaul comparison may have stuck. Bosh is a good guy, but in following his All Star buddies he's set him self up for every criticism coming his way.
As the old adage goes: careful what you wish for.
He's forever relegated himself to being a sidekick, or to quote Van Gundy a "lap dog." When the Heat win a championship I only expect to see Bosh's elbow on a cover of Sports Illustrated showcasing LeBron and D. Wade's Heat team.
(Note: I borrowed the Bosh Ultra Soft moniker from my boy Cortron; big shout out!)
