Chris Bosh has looked nothing short of amazing in his new role. After spending four years being the under-appreciated “third-wheel”, Bosh is showcasing how he played in his tenure with the Toronto Raptors.
Offensive finesse and pounding the boards.
So far, Bosh is averaging 21.8 points and 9.3 rebounds per game; all while shooting 35% from deep and 46% from the field. However, according to Bosh, his old Toronto days are long behind him
Via Tom Haberstroh of ESPN:
"“Everybody’s like, ‘We need CB4,'” Bosh said. “And I’m like, that’s dead. He’s dead. He’s not coming back. This is me. I can’t hold on to the past and think I’m going to be who I was back then. It’s impossible. Because I’m much better now.”"
If Bosh is able to keep up this production, he could garner some MVP votes.
