He plays very physically, takes a lot of charges, and gets beat up a lot. I think we'll never really know the truth about the injuries and his physical condition until one of us meets him at the mall and asks. Are there any Twin autograph sessions coming up?</p>

That can be the only explanation for including Bosh in that statement. </p> Besides Shaq, there is Yao, Curry, Oden, Kaman, Howard and the wimpy JON. </p>
