The LBJ hate is expected, but what about Bosh?

I'll even give Wade a pass because he's frankly old and his knees are shot. But LeBron takes most criticism for Heat losses while nobody mentions Bosh. The guy flat disappears. He plays a great game maybe 1 or 2 times per playoffs and he doesn't get much criticism. For being a member of "a big 3" he sure doesnt play like it.

They never go to Bosh unless they're looking for a corner 3. I wouldn't put it on him.

lol I personally like all the "Bostrich" pictures.

Bosh played poorly but Wade was atrocious. Terrible play, lazy on defense, turnovers. Just bad,
The son of a bitch looked like he gained weight DURING the finals.

Bosh is one of the most overrated players in the NBA
He's a center that is soft and sits at the 3 pt line.

But that's my point exactly. Bosh is paid like an elite NBA player. He is labeled as a member of the Big 3 which makes him sound elite and he isn't effective outside of shooting 3's sometimes?

I think Bosh partially gets a pass because:
1) He's playing without decent center help.
2) They have him spending a ridiculous number of possessions standing in the corner shooting 3's.
3) He doesn't have the same "cocky" aura, whether it's justified or not, that Lebron and Wade have.

He's not THAT old.
Maybe is body would be in better shape if he didn't spend half his career flopping and throwing himself on the ground.

Bosh has gotten too obsessed with the 3. No excuse for him going 0-5 from the 3point line in an elimination game.

Part of this has to do with him being the 3rd, and sometimes 4th, wheel in the Heat offense.

This one isn't on Bosh....#Fashion.

To be fair to Bosh, this was not the best decision for him in terms of developing his skill set. Go back and look at some youtube videos of him on the Raptors, he was awesome. It's like night and day seeing him now as opposed to then.

That's just further proving the point. How many elite NBA players are 4th options?

Probably tired from fricking Gabrielle Union all the time. I can't really hate on him for that if so.

Bosh isn't perceived as a threat to MJ. It's the same reason people don't hate Durant with a passion (or any other current star in the league).
LBJ is the first player after MJ to have the potential to approach and surpass Jordan's legacy (and still does in my opinion, albeit a long shot). People don't like that, thus they make up any and every reason to call him second rate, when in reality he is biggest superstar in the NBA since MJ.

I'll be honest, I'd be lying if I told you I could recall one game I watched when Bosh was in Toronto.

Yeah but I'm not talking about chicken little fans who say lebron sucks. How much time on ESPN will be spent talking about Bosh's disappearance?
I agree with you btw.

Which is sad because they are wasting time being absurdly angry when they could enjoy the greatest athlete of this generation play the game.
