You must also admit that Bosh is not a superstar and can't carry a team over the course of a season. He is a very good finesse player most teams would love to have. The problem is the Raptors have to put the right guys around him and they have not. You guys need a bruiser at C and a nasty PG or SG who will kick other players when they start hanging their heads. The Raptors need a couple of macho, lunch pail players who will foul hard and won't take any stuff from anybody. A new coach might help too.
Is he a superstar? I don't know ........what criterion qualifies a player as a “superstar”? I don't think there is one player in this league that can carry a team over the course of the season and in the playoffs. Kobe needed Gasol, and Lebron’s going to need someone as well. If you take Chris Bosh off the Raptors, I honestly don’t think the team would be close to being a .500 team. They lost 12 games of the 16 he didn’t play in this season. The reason why I wouldn’t put him up there with Lebron/Kobe is because his game isn’t yet complete, he’s weak defensively and his post game needs work... but that’s about it........ big men take longer to come into their own, especially when they aren’t power players....we haven’t seen his full potential, far from it. The bolded part of your post is spot on.........
