I really mixed two topics here. The point I should have more clearly made is that Bosh has been chirping for weeks that he gets no respect as compared to LeBron and DWade, that he's just as good, and that there are three, not two, franchise free agents on the market in 2010.
Frankly, there is only one--- LeBron. Wade is close behind, but he's not as consistent and can be kept away from the rim by good defenses.
Meanwhile, Bosh is a distant third. Pierce's play was just evidence of that fact.
First off- great dunk by the captain.
However-
I disagree. To me Wade is a complete player where Lebron is still developing. Adding Wade to a good playoff team makes them an instant contender, Lebron I'm not so sure. In Boshy's case one could also argue that Lebaby and Wade have been favored by the refs since their entry in the league, where Bosh has had a hard road on a lackluster team.
Bosh is certainly not a game changer like Wade/bron, but in the right situation he may be more valuable by his position alone.
For instance, a team like Chicago may benefit from a solid PF more than Bron or even Wade. Many times netting a franchise big man can change the face of your franchise. Big men are definitely valuable my man, look at what it did for Boston.
I like Bosh, and while he may rank third amongst the free agent class of this summer, getting dunked on has nothing to do with it.
Makes no sense. Everyone get's posterized at some point. Look at your boy Lespooninmouth this past summer.
