Sometimes I think Raptors fans take Chris Bosh for granted. He's a three-time All Star at the age of 24. After a promising debut in 2003 at the age of 19, every season after that has been better than the one before. He seems like a genuinely nice guy who is well-liked by teammates and coaches. Two-thirds of the GMs in the league would trade anyone on their roster for him. He's funnier than Gilbert Arenas. And now, with his impressive performance so far in Beijing, the rest of the world is finding out what we already knew — but sometimes let ourselves forget while arguing about T.J. vs. Jose or Bargnani vs. a cardboard cutout of Dirk Nowitzki — that the young fella from up there in Canada is pretty darn good. In much the same way that Paul Pierce was energized by the addition of Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett to the Celtics, I think Chris Bosh is going to be super-pumped and ready to wreak some havoc on the league with his new frontcourt partner in crime, Jermaine O'Neal. He is the undisputed leader of the most talented Raptors team yet, and he's the first reason I can't wait for NBA basketball to return. |
