Chris Bosh impresses fans

-- A poll on the Toronto Raptors’ Web site asked, “Who do you think has impressed Coach (Kevin) O’Neill the most this preseason?” A whopping 62 percent chose rookie big man Chris Bosh, while 26 percent of the votes went to Vince Carter. (18,268 votes)

Last night Bosh helped the Raptors beat the Timberwolves by LEADING the team with 16 points (6/13), 7 rebounds (3 off), 2 steals, was 4/5 from the line.

Check out this re-cap: On one play, Bosh got Garnett off his feet on a ball fake from the right block and then scored off glass. Defensively, Bosh was, at times, a shot-blocking presence and controlled the boards.

Through these early pre-season games, Bosh has become the #1 guy off the bench for the Raptors. Friday night he plays against Carmello Anthony and the Nuggets. Who knows, he may be starting by the time the season starts. CHRIS, COME ON!!! Sure you don't want to consider another year of development at Tech?

Now, where is the mighty Lebron James - averaging 8 points (33% shooting), 4 rbds, 4.3 assists, 3 turnovers. Bosh is out of the gates and running....
