Bosh PISSED off about playing time!
From Sheridans column.
Quote:
SAPPORO, Japan -- If Chris Bosh knew several months ago what he knows now -- that he'd be buried along with Brad Miller on the end of the bench -- would he still have been willing to join Team USA?
"That's a good question. I'm not sure," Bosh told Insider on Thursday night after the U.S. wrapped up preliminary-round play with a 103-58 rout of Senegal. "I can't say that I would, but I don't think anyone would have told me that."
|
Quote:
"We're going to practice for two days, and I'm going to put myself in a position where I'm going to do good and it's going to be hard not to play me. I just have to play as hard as I can at practice and prove my worth," Bosh said.
Still, this was clearly not what Bosh was expecting when he became one of the first American players -- and one of the most enthusiastic -- to accept team director Jerry Colangelo's invitation to become a part of the national team.
|
I've never really seen Bosh like this, and hopefully this lights a fire in him, and want to prove all the doubters wrong once again. Seriously seeing this from Bosh is wonderful.

Re: Bosh PISSED off about playing time!
and given his play against Senegal, it appears it did motivate Bosh.

Re: Bosh PISSED off about playing time!
Remember when Bosh got really pissed off during a game last season? Angry Bosh is a scary Bosh. Angry Bosh plays with fire.
This may sound weird but it's actually nice to hear that Bosh isn't pleased with his playing time. This shows that he wants to perform for his team and wants to do everything he can to help them out. It also shows that he has a strong desire to play. Hopefully over the next few days he will make it really hard for the coach not to pick him.

He's played 57 minutes, Wade has played 82. It's not like he's getting Darkoed.

Agree Bosh was just a force last season when he was angry, and if he plays angry this tourney the rest of the teams better watch out. Remember the game against the Kings when Bosh got ejected he was all pissed, and he threw a tantrum the next game he put down 33 points, 13 rebounds, and 4 assists?

Re: Bosh PISSED off about playing time!
I think Bosh was more upset at his DNP against Italy, than his minutes overall
this interview was probably right after that game, so you can understand why he might have been pissed

Re: Bosh PISSED off about playing time!
I guess it's pretty much an allstar team where the guards dominate. I would be mad if I was Bosh too.

Re: Bosh PISSED off about playing time!
he was given plenty of chances to earn playing time, he was the 1st big man Coach K put out on the court when team USA started playing games

Re: Bosh PISSED off about playing time!
It may have something to do with this :
Team USA almost doubled up Senegal by defeating them 103-58 with Chris Bosh going off for 20 points and 10 boards. His scoring burst came after Jerry Colangelo erroneously named him as one of the team's non all-star players to the media. That's what Jerry gets for not taking an interest in his son's hobbies.

PISSED off!!!
I dunno. Looks like he's frustrated but he isn't venting, it's not his personality.
He'll do what he has to do and hopefully he keeps things in perspective.
