    The only thing i want from the knicks is walt frazier, as far as commentators go, he's about the best there is, the rest of their team is just so dysfunctional.

    which 5 are better than him?

    Stat and Gasol are a given, Griffin shortly if he isn't already, then? Kevin Love and maybe KG?

    LeBron also wasn't traded to Miami in the middle of the year.

    Good list, I totally agree, although KG would be borderline since he has declined a lot as he has aged and played with a great core. I think the list would be even longer if you take contracts into consideration. When you pay a guy the max (or close to it) you are counting on them to be a franchise player, and, IMO, bosh is not that.

    I'm probably going to get some heat for this, but I'd take Patterson over Bosh when you take the contracts into consideration.

    Pugs

    LOL Knicks.

    They could have just signed Carmelo in the offseason without gutting their team.

    Everyone point and laugh.

    Knicks incorporate Jared Jefferies in there rotation. LOL After last nights game, I can see why Rick doesn't play him hardly at all. D'antoni is turrible.

    Jefferies will make some boneheaded plays to drive any coach crazy.

    I'd rather have Patterson than a Melo half a season rental.

    And Bosh is not a top 5 PF.

    You can tell the people who don't watch Chris Bosh play, say he isn't a top 5 PF right now. Not even worth arguing about.

    And LOL and the person who would pick Patterson over Bosh, that's going to be my new Sig!

    Unfortunately, not a lot of people here are Miami Heat fans.

    Even more unfortunately, most people here are capable of using facts as retorts, instead of "lololol, I'm not going to argue with you because I'm correct".

    I can easily name 5 other power forwards better than Bosh. In fact, I can name 30 power forwards that didn't go 1-18.

    Bosh is playing better then Amare, Aldridge and Love right now.
    Love is a one way player, and even Bosh is playing D right now.
    Take your hating glasses off, just because he didn't sign for the Rockets, doesn't make him a bad player

    Miami Heat fans: Where playing well for a few games makes you the top 5 player of your position.

    Bosh stats
    Career: 20-9-1 (49%)
    Season: 18-8-1 (49%)
    Last 10: 19-9-0 (50%)
    Last 5: 21-11-0 (53%)

    If you use his best numbers,
    21 ppg edges out Love for #5 in scoring (so long as the others only get to use their season averages)
    11 rpg would make him #4 among PFs (again, their season averages)
    0.7 bpg (his season), has him #22 among PFs
    53% shooting would tie him with Dirk for #6 among PFs

    So, as long as Bosh takes his best hot streak numbers and compares them against season averages, he does sneak in as about the 5th best PF in the NBA.

    And he's unequivocally #1 in youtube flopping videos

    So does this mean Willy the Squid is a Superstar too?

    It's the fact, that Miami has got him more involved into the Offense, and he is posting up a lot more now.
    Lebron and Wade are trusting him a lot more now, which is a great sign, as Miami plays real well, when Bosh is getting down low.
    People forget just how good he was last year..
