    He has somehow developed worse handles since his rookie season. His ballhandling is scary bad sometimes. You can almost see it coming when he swings the ball low to begin a dribble--the ball is destined to go off his foot or out of his reach.

    Its cause PFs are not suppose to be amazing ball handlers. I cant recall any PFs (except Magic who played every position) to have been good ball handlers. Usually PGs and SG and at the very most SF should be good ball handlers, other guys develop their low post moves so they dont work on carryin the ball and stuff

    So?

    The guy is responsible for his style of play, whatever that may be. He'd have one turnover a game or so if he didn't force his dribble and fumble passes so much. Instead he has two and a half. Its all I'm saying.

    It's the first username I used on JBB. I was such a horrible poster.

    The officiating on this game was horrible. The no call on Brook when he hit Bosh in the wrist, the offensive interference on Brook when it was a great lob pass and so many more.

    The two phantom foul calls on Bargnani that forced him to the bench... I agree. Joe Crawford sucks.

    I'll fight Joe Crawford. I'll call up Timmy D and we'll fuck his shit up.

    I think the biggest question that'll plague Chris Bosh for the foreseeable future is this: Should anyone be overly bothered to get out and contest his jumpshot? The dude can definitely nail them, and I don't think any coach would completely ignore him out on the elbow. But in all his years as our franchise player, I've never seen him beat a team shooting those elbow jumpshots all game. He baits defenses into overcompensating and beats them with the drive. In fact, I think the only way Chris Bosh can beat you is if you don't remain constantly vigilent against his drive.

    I noticed this in the Milwaukee and New Jersey games. Both Frank and Skiles have seen Bosh enough and did an excellent job coaching against him.
