    I've been thinking about this for a while. It seemed like it would be a good idea to have one place to talk about all things Bosh. Whether it be: his weight, his shot, his bright future or what you heard his favorite restaurant is, this is the place to put it. All Bosh all the time.

    No he shouldn't get more touches, he needs to learn how to cover the ball in the post before he should get more.

    Bosh scored a career high 25 points (shooting 7-11 from the field, a perfect 10-10 from the line 1-1 from three point land) while picking up nine rebounds in a double overtime win over Houston. Bosh sank his first NBA 3 in this game but didn?t get rave reviews from everyone present. Steve "I don?t want to go to Vancouver!" Francis was less than complimentary-"(Bosh) was lucky. He just threw it up and hoped it went in," Francis said. However, another Rocket had a more positive spin- "He's poised. I looked at him take that three, and he looked like he knew what he was doing," Houston's Cuttino Mobley said. "And then he goes to the foul line and sinks six shots in a row, that kid is poised." What is clear is that Bosh is making an impression leading ESPN to make this comment "Only mistake from Vince in comeback was questioning Bosh selection. Kid is helping VC more than any other Raptor."

    Could Bosh be the Raptors new #2 man? Could he be that now?

    I told you if he gets more time and touches he would do better, but nooo some of these Raptor fans are Chris Bosh haters... Haters just like most of you Raptor fans. You love the raps when they win but hate them if they loose. Just like you love Bosh now but hate him or think he's too skinny or he's gotta learn first before he gets more touches. Tell me, who would you have rather toughing the ball. Chris Bosh or Mo Pete?

    So do you think that Bosh can play second fiddle to Vince? A solid 1-2 punch towards the future?

    I think Bosh could be at the 20-10 level in a couple of years. He provides the athletic inside presence the Raptors have missed since dealing Camby.

    Bosh Ties Raptor Rebound Record

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">
    Raptors win fourth straight
    By LORI EWING (Slam Sports)


    Chris Bosh sums up his recent success to simply not beating himself up so badly.

    The Raptors rookie forward had another sensational outing on Sunday, scoring 22 points and adding a career-high 16 rebounds in Toronto's 108-98 win over the Seattle SuperSonics, their fourth straight victory with their revamped lineup.

    "At first I think I was kind of putting a little pressure on myself to do well, I was trying to do too much when we've got four other great professional guys out there," said the 19-year-old Bosh, the No. 4 pick in the 2003 draft. "I'm just trying to relax and if I make a mistake, make up for it with hard play." Bosh, playing 45 minutes, shot 8-for-13 from the floor, including a number of huge dunks that repeatedly brought the crowd of 17,779 to its feet, and a beautiful basket late in the first half when he spun off Vitaly Potapenko, laying the ball in over his head.

    "Chris Bosh is for real, and any time you're able to get 22 points and 16 rebounds and do it with a straight face, it shows the potential that he has," said Rose.

    Bosh's 16 rebounds tied a Raptor record for boards by a rookie - Marcus Camby had 16 rebounds for the Raptors on March 21, 1997, against Charlotte.

    And the play of the young Raptor drew huge praise in the post-game locker-room from his coach and teammates.

    "He was a glass-cleaner tonight, and it says a lot about his mentality and his ability to play the game," Carter said. "He is giving up a lot of weight (he's listed at 228) and still he was a beast down there."

    Added Raptor coach Kevin O'Neill: "I thought Chris's defensive presence kept up, hanging around a lot of time and he's getting a feel for running the floor and finding his spots to get easy baskets. He's been great."

    Bosh will battle rookie phenom LeBron James for the first time this season, as the Raptors play at Cleveland on Tuesday.

    "It's crossed my mind a couple of times," said Bosh, on playing James. "But it's just another game against Cleveland, and we're going for five straight (wins)." </div>
