Is Chris Bosh (1-for-15) so worried Omer Asik might be diving at his ankles that he can't concentrate on the rim?

ah - that's it - forgot about that. He is playing way too conservatively. Nice defense of late though.

SomeDPlease · 02-24-2011, 10:20 PM

Ohhhhh, I forgot that taking 16 shots was conservative.

I'm going to love reading the comments on the Bulls board is they lose this game.

LX · 02-24-2011, 10:24 PM

He's taking good shots. The problem is that he's settling for the jumpers and little else. Even on the odd drive he's been the same six inches off. Maybe he put his contacts in wrong.

**Ball Don't Lie** · 02-24-2011, 10:25 PM

Bosh is having one of the worst games EVARRR

LX · 02-24-2011, 10:28 PM

Rose is clutch

jeffb · 02-24-2011, 10:29 PM

great game

**Ball Don't Lie** · 02-24-2011, 10:29 PM

Its so unfair we dont have a player like Rose on our team. He's not legal in 38 states.

SomeDPlease · 02-24-2011, 10:29 PM

Thib needs to get Asik back in there in my opinion.

Also, does anyone know if players are allowed to wear glasses, or are contacts a must for bad eyesight?

you haven't seen Kurt Rambis in Acie's avatar? Goggles are another option as well.

**Ball Don't Lie** · 02-24-2011, 10:36 PM

RIGHT BETWEEN THE EYES

Haha, yeah. I thought maybe there was a rule change in the 15 odd years since contact lenses became a much better alternative.

Edit: Seems like the game is done. Terrific game, Chi deserved to win it this time. But they'd be no match for the Heat if Bosh can hit his shots, and the bench can contribute more than 2 points.

TORaptor4Ever · 02-24-2011, 11:12 PM

I'm shocked that no one's made a thread yet about Bosh's performance tonight lol...

The Bulls shouldn't be happy at all.... If Bosh even plays HALFWAY well MIA wins this game easy.

RaptorsandBuckeye FaN · 02-25-2011, 01:18 AM

Denver finishes the Boston game on a 16-0 run to win by double digits. 2-0 in the post-Melo era!

Yeah, you can say that about every loss EVERY team experiences.

Chicago made Bosh take jumpers and not really get anything easy. They focussed on taking 1 of the 3 out of the game and capitalize.

Pretty sound strategy.

realistically that's how teams are going to have to beat miami in the playoffs - by turning Bosh into strictly a jump-shooter. you're not going to stop wade or lebron from getting to where they want to be on the floor, but you can restrict Bosh and play off of him. it's beyond me how he hasn't developed a post game, in fact i'd say andrea's post game is further along than CB's at this point. anyways, i don't see a team being unhappy winning a playoff series because Bosh shot 0.056% from the field in six games.
