Ah, quite the tourny Bosh, please! Man, this could be bad, if he doesn't hold back he could hurt himself bad, which could be horrible for us.

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> Chris Bosh Withdraws from Team USA August 15, 2007 LAS VEGAS (CP) - Toronto Raptors forward Chris Bosh withdrew from U.S. basketball training camp Wednesday because of a left foot injury. Bosh has plantar fasciitis and will not play in the FIBA Americas tournament that starts next week, USA Basketball spokesman Craig Miller said. The six-foot-10, 230-pound Bosh will remain on the team and under consideration for a spot if the Americans qualify for the 2008 Olympics. His withdrawal leaves the Americans with 15 players. Bosh was hobbled in the pre-season last year by plantar fasciitis, a painful foot ailment caused by the inflammation of the plantar fascia tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot. The problem is common among the NBA's big men, and can prove costly if it doesn't clear up.</div> http://www.nba.com/raptors/news/bosh_usa_w...raw_150807.html
Is it possible to have chronic plantar fasciitis? That's pretty odd that he's had two consecutive unrelated cases of the same nagging injury. Good to hear him pull out though. He really hasn't had much time to rest for the past two years.
Bosh quits U.S. team ahead of tournament <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Chris Bosh's withdrawal from the United States Olympic team on the eve of the qualification tournament comes as little surprise to the Raptors. "We've been talking about this for several weeks and knew it was a possibility,'' Toronto president and general manager Bryan Colangelo said last night. Citing a sore left foot ? the same injury that limited his ability to practise last season ? the 22-year-old took himself off the team a week before the Olympic qualification tournament begins in Las Vegas. Colangelo said Bosh is expected in Toronto later this week to be examined by team doctors. </div> The Star
