I think he got an unfair rep from being the captain of a team that included Artest, Stephen Jackson, Jamal Tinsley, and bunch of other retards. Like almost every other star player in the NBA, he gets annoyed with his management when his team is rebuilding instead of contending. But that's just a reality of the league (even though I personally find it annoying). All this talk of him bringing in a bad attitude is just pointless, IMO.

Notice when Reggie left, that team fell off a bit...because they lost his leadership. O'Neal's just not a good leader, unfortunately. Hell, O'Neal should have been shipped off as soon as Jackson and Artest bounced. Hopefully, for you guys, Bosh is a better leader than O'Neal.

The next season they had to endure Artest's idiocy (and there was a lot of it). The years since then were filled with crappy personel decisions, coaching changes, and his teammates' off-court issues. Its hard to really blame him for any of that crap. Fortunately for us, Bosh is already established as our leader and he's an excellent one, at that.

Yep. And Jose's the man as well. We lose Rasho's great attitude, but we also get rid of TJ's crap. Character/attitude is not an issue with this trade, IMO.
