Is there a more useless star in the NBA than Bosh?

[JT123]

Can't rebound, can't defend, can't post up. :facepalm :facepalm :facepalm
Only thing dude can do is hit wide open jumpers, and when those jumpers aren't falling he is like the invisible man out there. This fggt should be embarrassed to pick up his paycheck.

bran. ballhog bailout passer who chokes

[Warfan]

Biggest flower forward in the league, I don't even remember the last time he scored in this game

[secund2nun]

Very overrated player. If a team actually gives him a max contract this summer they are idiots. I see him opting in.

[CelticBaller]

A PF playing like a spot up shooter

[AnaheimLakers24]

also that homo causes bosh , a superstar, to play like a spot up role player

[Trollsmasher]

Implying Bosh is a star

Him trying to rebound the ball and slapping it back to Grizzlies instead was just pathetic to watch. Guy is the softest big in the history of the league

[TheReal Kendall]

Blame Lebron bro

LeDiva made him into a spot up shooter.

But just like Wade he will have one good game and then the whole world will laugh at each other and act as if they knew all along that he was still a 'star'. The first page will then be filled up with threads about how underrated he is, how stacked Bron's team is. Then the next ten games he will stink it up and this exact thread will be created again. A week later the process will repeat itself.

Bosh will bail out the Heat with a clutch last second shot, get praise for a few hours before getting the brunt of the hate again on another day. All the while Lebron stans think their team isnt stacked and that Bran is doing it all by himself.

That was driving me nuts! :facepalm Russel Westbrook is a better rebounder than Bosh Spice. I would honestly much rather have Ibaka on this team. At least if Ibaka isn't hitting shots he can still protect the paint and rebound.

The only reason the Heat are going to need that clutch 3 in the first place is because Bosh was being a total bitch throughout the game.

[Mr. Incredible]

Damn man, the overreacting is strong.

Bosh has proven time and time again how valuable he is to Miami. Yeah he has flaws, but he has far more strengths. I'd much rather him being apart of the Heat than on the other side.

I can't wait until the playoffs when Bosh is making big plays and you guys will be saying how great and clutch he is.

:rolleyes:

Not if he's making $20M a year. Could get a really good center and a couple of other good 3&D players for that kind of money.

In all honestly, the way the Heat are constructed is perfect for LeBron and Wade.

You know the team that has been to 3 straight Finals and have won the last two rings. Just sayin'.

The team is really old and tired now. over 4 seasons worth of basketball in the last 3 seasons? Allen is done, Battier is about to retire, and Andersen is gonna turn 37.

IMO, they should get rid of Bosh and Allen (Battier is retiring anyways). They can use the money to get a good defensive center and 3 young 3&D guys.

Wade might be able to play only 50-60 RS games, but we NEED him for the Playoffs. He showed us why we need him in Game 7 of the ECF and games 4 & 7 of the Finals. He's the only one who's capable of running the Heat's offense (other than LeBron, obviously).

We were damn good at small because of our quickness. Miami swarmin/trapping defense worked because of the teams quickness as well. Do you know why we suck defensive now?

All I'm saying is let's give Bosh some serious credit instead of bashing him. The guy had played an integral part these past three years and will continue to do so these playoffs, win or lose.

And I disagree with you about getting rid of him. It would be a mistake in my opinion.

Look at how many different rotations Miami has been forced to play this season, new faces, new lineups, fatigue, boredom. A lot of factors have played into the defensive woes this year. Let's see what happens when Miami has their backs against the wall and the lights are shining the brightest, shall we?

I do give him a ton of credit. He's one of the best help defenders on the team. He's extremely quick on his feet and constantly helps out on the perimeter and one of the main reasons why the Heat's defense has been so good.

Then again, he's EXTREMELY soft. He's a big, who's too scared to defend other bigs. If his jumper is off, he always tries to force it, instead of taking it inside.

The last 15 games, he's averaging 14/6 on 44%. Miami has gone 9-6 in these games.

The Finals? He put of 10 points on 12 shots in that game, while letting Timmy score over 25 points in the first half. People like to blame LeBron for that game, but where was Bosh? Dude almost never gets any blame for that game, because he grabbed THE rebound, which wouldn't have even been necessary, if he managed to play good defense and score a bit.
Game 7... I'm not even gonna go into that.

I agree with all of your points. I will say he has the worst hands I've ever seen out of a star big man. That's not deniable. However, he does way more good things than bad. I can't blame him for getting owned by Randolph because he was outmatched. I think we should have expected that.

Not just Randolph though. It's like every big turns into Shaq against us. Hibbert, Duncan, etc.

Anyways, wouldn't you say that it would be better for the team to acquire a legit center and a couple of young 3&D guys? Would help more than having just one soft big man who can't defend other bigs.

You could say that, but we were without Birdman, Oden and Haslem. That's HUGE. Especially against teams that have a great front court. I think were fine now and in the future.

I trust Pat. Again, the Heat are the two-time defending champs and three-time defending EC champs. He knows what he's doing and will continue to keep Miami successful. What will a slow defensive center do anyway? Just negate what Miami has been successful all these past 3.5 years? Miami needs a young rookie who is hungry, can rebound, etc. Miami can't have it all. And Pat knows this. How about we trust him?

Haven't lost to them, but it wouldn't have come down to Ray Allen's three, if we had a better center and wouldn't have gone to 7 games with the Pacers as well. Relieves some of LeBron's burden as well.

It doesn't matter man. It's the Playoffs. It's never easy. Things happen. It won't ever be perfect. Just because the Heat have the Big 3, it's never guaranteed. Anyone can say "if we had so and so or this or that" for any team and they would think they should win.

Just appreciate this squad. Everyone is acting like it's the end. It's only the beginning. Go look at the 93' bulls squad. 2nd seed, only won 57 games. They were going for a 3-peat, struggled during certain points during the season and found a way.

It will be okay.

Who got the rebound for that Allen 3? :oldlol:

Bosh ALWAYS steps up when the team needs him, he has had so many clutch moments in the playoffs. Even when Duncan was owning him in that Game 6, Bosh stepped up in the 2nd half and held Duncan to 0 FGs, his pick n roll defense on Parker and crucial blocks were also a huge reason for Miami's win.

Bosh may have some lackluster games, but when it matters most, he will make a big play to seal a win. Those kind of players are rare. King Boshtrich will show us his resolve soon enough, all who doubt him will go back to their holes.

I'm not worried about this season at all. I'm pretty confident that Miami will 3peat. It's next season that I'm worried about.

[FLDFSU]

All I want Bosh to do is rebound. After the first season in Miami when I realized that Bosh was a complete p9ssy in the post, I have just wanted Bosh to get to double digit rebounds.

I don't get upset at his complete inability to play in the post or guard men in the post but at 120 million, the least you can do is rebound.

Bosh, come playoff time, won't even be the 3rd option...James, Wade, Allen, then Bosh AND he STILL can't get 10 boards a night.

Why didn't Riley listen to me when I said last year we should trade Bosh for Omer and a filler?

You mean the guy that was the best defender on the Heat in the Finals & rebounded a Lebron brick TWICE in the last 30 seconds, which led to the 6 points that tied the game? That guy? The guy that blocked Danny Green from tying the game at the end of OT? Yeah, he's TOTALLY useless & has zero impact on the team ()-.-()

He only saved Lebron from an embarrassing Finals series last year, what else do you want from him? He shows up in big moments. The Memphis game didn't decide anything. The game against Indy will.

Lebron played below his averages for ONE series, while Bosh was trash for all 4 series. Bosh was so awful for so many games that of course he eventually was bound to do something right. Just the law of averages. There is no way to justify a man who makes 100 million dollars going scoreless in a game 7 of the Finals.

Classic blind box score reading Lebron stan with no basketball knowledge. Whose Jan 2014 alt account are you? You sound a lot like Silk.

[Nash]

I'm very disappointed in my dude Bosh. He needs to play better. Wade has been out for most of this season yet Bosh still hasn't taken up that 2nd option role properly. We've been talking about Bosh stepping up to that 2nd option role with Wade aging/declining but the guy is not taking the chance at all.

I wonder what Miami needs to do next season between Wade being injured all the time and Bosh not stepping up.

Do you think that Miami would've gone to 7 games against the Spurs, if they had a competent big who could defend Timmy? Do you also want to totally forget about the 25 first half points that he gave up? How about the 10/5 series against the Pacers? Yeah, lets just ignore all those and blame ONLY LeBron for the teams shortcomings. Gasol gets destroyed by Laker fans, even though he was MUCH better than Bosh during the back-to-backs. How do you think they would've done Bosh?

Ah sheet didn't realize Bosh makes that much. :oldlol:

If money is the issue, then yea he makes a little too much. But then again what do you expect from a 3rd option that isn't involved in many plays. You see how good Bosh plays when Lebron+Wade are out, those games vs Spurs were great.

Just seems like these Lebron stans shit on Bosh just because. They do it to Wade too. They never mention the money issue, they just shit on anyone to prop up Lebron.

Yeah. Miami is pretty much over the cap with the big 3's salaries. So, instead of keeping Bosh, just trade him for a legit center and young 3&D guys. That would definitely improve the team significantly. $20M is plenty of money to do that as well.

Vogel and Pop don't think so. They gifted two series to the Heat by being afraid of Bosh.

[pauk]

LeDiva made him into a spot up shooter.

Did he make him into a horrible rebounder & defender aswell? Did you see the game last night? Any time he tried to post up/score he either bricked / got blocked or turned the ball over.... and it has been going like that for the majority of his games this season. As far as spotup shooting goes, it makes sense for him at this moment, infact he WANTS to do it, he LOVES it, you will see him now even randomly chuck up a couple of (heavy contested/defended) 3PT shots a game....

[jzek]

I love how his stats nearly double whenever it's near the All Star break. Only player that has consistently done that 4 years in a row.

[JellyBean]

:facepalm Jeez. Reading this thread, you would think that Bosh was a scrub or something.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

Epic fail. Why do you think he has become a spot up shooter?:facepalm
because LeBron has no three pointer and cant space the floor?? oh wait that isnt true
because LeBron is a ballhog and doesnt let other guys score?? not true either

Always steps up. great logic

they have two average players in Bosh and Birdman and every other player is a worthless scrub.:facepalm

He wasn't needed in Game 7. However, he had to rebound Bran's brick in game 6 to save his legacy.

[mistergreens]

Miami needed Bosh to score more than zero points in game seven of the finals...

People will say anything they can to continue to discredit Lebron James. Saying they didn't need Bosh to score a single point in Game 7 is ridiculous. Some people, still, just refuse to acknowledge Lebron.

[J Shuttlesworth]

People will say anything they can to continue to discredit Lebron James. Saying they didn't need Bosh to score a single point in Game 7 is ridiculous. Some people, still, just refuse to acknowledge Lebron.
Actually sounds like they are accepting his greatness. Saying he doesn't need his a star on his roster to score points in game 7 is GOAT level shit. Even Jordan needed Kukoc to score some points, but Lebron didn't need it because he's that good. These guys are used to watching kobe who would shit the bed if Gasol went cold. Lebron is beyond that

You just described a clutch role player there, yet Bosh is being paid a max contract. Not to mention he doesn't always step up. He nearly cost Miami the 2013 finals and ECF. He was the reason it was so close.

why?? its much more reasonable to like one player than an entire team.
i have nothing against the Heat, i actually like them quite a bit, but i will never root for assholes like Chalmers, Cole and corpses like Allen or Lewis who act like they are 29 every game.
on top of that they have a retarded ape as a coach.
i can understand when you root for a team because its close to you or you like nearly all their players but rooting for an individual is much more reasonable:coleman:

[ralph_i_el]

Do you guys just want bosh to take the ball and try and score every possession? They don't run plays to get him the ball near the hoop or in the post, they don't let him make many plays from the elbow. He's valuable standing out behind the 3 point line because you have to respect that shot, and it lets Lebron and Wade work in the paint.

A lot of ignorant folks in this thread that don't understand the team aspect of the game. Bosh isn't going to catch it at the 3 point line and drive it, that's not his game. He's a big man and they don't let him play like one because they need him in a role that makes them the best TEAM.

Do you all really think he has forgotten how to score since his toronto days?

Give me Chris Bosh and I'll let him work from the elbow and the post and he'll put up 20+ a game no problem. Why would you construct an offense around Bosh if you had Lebron though? Drop CB in Nene's role on the Wiz and they're right up there with the Heat and Pacers Imo. Swap Bosh for Boozer on Chicago this year and he'd get a whole hell of a lot more touches and respect.

Bosh was putting up the same efficiency numbers on Toronto at 27-28% usage as he does today at 22% usage. He can obviously take more touches if that's what the team NEEDED.

rooting for an individual is much more reasonable:coleman:


rooting for an individual makes you seem like a child. No self respecting man would do it. Real men root for their team no matter who plays for them

Maybe if you guys didn't go all-in with that cancer of a player, you guys might've had a better team.

Stop being such a player fan. You player fans are an embarrassment to sports fans everywhere.

Huh? I'm a Denver fan, always have been, always will be. Straight up. You're always bashing the Heat, which just backs up my point about you being an embarrassment to the organization

I've never been a huge fan of Bosh, but he's still a great guy to have as the 3rd best player on your team...

yeah having a 9x all star big man in his prime as the 3rd option is a pretty damn nice luxury to have

Can't rebound, can't defend, can't post up. :facepalm :facepalm :facepalm
Only thing dude can do is hit wide open jumpers, and when those jumpers aren't falling he is like the invisible man out there. This fggt should be embarrassed to pick up his paycheck.

I agree with absolutely none of that (except the defense as he really doesn't make a difference one way or another). Bosh had a fantastic year in 2010 the season before he joined Miami though when he had bulked up and put on muscle. Guy was averaging 24ppg 10.8rpg on great efficiency. I never understood why they wanted him to lose that muscle he put on when he joined the Heat...they don't exactly have a plethora of big men or anything, so why would you want Bosh to get smaller again?

IN general though he's playing the role that is given to him. He joined the two best players in the world 4 years ago, so he had to go in expecting to be the 3rd option (I do find it interesting that, that first season he averaged his Miami career high, but the 2011 team lacked a steady offensive scheme. Next season wehn it was established Lebron 1, Wade 2, Bosh 3, their offense started to come together. That first season Spo just let them do whatever they wanted and put no offense system in place.

So I don't understand how a guy can be useless for playing the role he's being asked to play. Kendrick Perkins is what you call useless. Chris Bosh is a 3rd man (and 2nd when Wade's out and shows he can put up 20 on any given night if asked to), so it's not his fault he doesn't get the shots a player of his calibur normally would. If anything the fact that he's put aside his ego to play the role he does is admirable.

Yep

the problem that haters of Lebron don't realize...is that in that role he plays he's about as valuable as Lamar Odom was on the Lakers...

What Bosh could do as the first option of an average team isn't really relevant to how much he impacts the Heat.

So while Bosh is a better player than Odom in general terms...he's not doing anything more for the Heat than Odom did from 08 through 11...

In the playoffs I should say...after 2011 (Bosh was better and played a bigger role in 11)
