Bosh should be booed when he comes back to Toronto. Bosh is the enemy now (all opponents of the raptors on the court). Bosh played hard and is a pretty nice guy. Bosh was given a big opportunity in Toronto. THe Franchise player from the beginning! Everything was done to make Chris the centre of the offense and he did pretty good offensively. He was aloud to grow as a quality mid post player and now may be the best mid post player in the NBA (maybe Gasol is better). The one area that I think is a better measurement of commitment(hustle, heart and unselfishness) to a team is on the defensive end. This is where Bosh let his team down and you can blame ANdrea all you like but Bosh is as bad on the ball defender as the raptors had last year. Secondly his blocks and steals are lower then his first year in the nba. So how could he be a better weakside defender now then when he came in the league at 19. He let the Raptors down on the defense end. He hasn't improved his defense since he was 19 years old. What type of power forward averages .97 blocks and .6 steals a game and plays 38 minutes a night.
Add in the fact that Bosh didn't stick it out when the Raptors team is the third youngest in the league. The raptors were two years away from being contenders. As the demars, weems, amirs, andreas come into their mid 20's they will be a force to deal with. Either way I think the raptors will be about the same this year as they were last year. Probably 9-11 in the east and if they get lucky 500. Still we should Boo Bosh for not working on his weakness in those 7 great years and leaving before the guys peak.
