To all of yall saying the Heat need a big center to clog up the middle... You obviously don't know shite about how the Heat and how they play.

They don't need a guy who can only play near the rim, because that clogs the paint which is where D Wade and LeBron do their best work. Why do you think they moved Chris Bosh to Center and have him playing on the perimeter??


Defensively, idiot.

Lol. What else should they do? They don't have any options.

Still need to defend the other end. And a big man doesn't exactly have to stand there and "clog the lane" whatever the frick that means



What else should they do? Play him at the position he played at his entire career maybe? Power Forward? Let him play down low like he did all the time while he was in Toronto when he was averaging 24\11??

The Heat don't need a post presence because they don't want another one. If they did they would let Bosh play down there but it puts more bodys in the paint and takes away from LeBron and D Wades game.

So what's the guy going to do on the other end of the court?

The Heat want to play small ball.

quote:

And Bosh is a PF that only shoots 3s and is never in the paint. And im a Bosh fan and thinks he gets a lot of undeserved criticism. Hes the 1 that sacrificed the most when he came to the Heat. But hes turned into a 3pt shooting PF, not that great at it either. Hes never in the paint, which kills the Heat in rebounding. These last 2 seasons with the Heat, hes had career lows in rebounding (6.7rebs) and career highs in 3pt attempts. Coincidence? Nope.



Bosh has gotten better, not worse. He still has a great post game and has increased his jump shooting ability tremendously since coming to Miami. THey just don't want him to post up and they play him on the perimeter. His rebounds are down as well because since they play small ball he is the center and he can't really hold his own against true centers. Couple that with him being on the perimeter the majority of the time and you see why his rebounding numbers are done.
