They've intentionally had him playing more away from the basket and it looks like he's completely forgotten what he used to know about post play. This year Bosh attempted 74 3pt shots which is more than twice his highest total from a previous year (35). He put up 3 years of 16/10+ in Toronto, with 4 years over 700 rebounds (501 this year), so he had to know something about rebounding/post play before.NotAJerry wrote:Agreed.

As for Bosh, I've always wondered what position or role he plays. He's not an inside scorer or threat. Not a great rebounder. And a much poorer defender then I thought when he came over. The Heat can get one or two players to fill those roles for a whole lot less money then they are paying Bosh.
Win or lose those are issues the Heat need to address. Plus, their chemistry looks awful.

They like to get the starters rested and hope to a) keep it close and b) hope something crazy doesn't happen. So far so good. Id like to see the lead no bigger then a 6-8 swing but can live with it. It seems to me that Miami is laying it all out there to start and Indiana is holding something back for the 2nd half
