In the eight years in the NBA he has a career average of 20.0 ppg and 9.2 rbg. The former Dallas Lincoln standout led his team to the State 4A Championship in his senior year by defeating Beaumont Ozen 71-51 which had won the State title in the previous year. Ozen was led by another Texas product, Kendrick Perkins who led his team the Boston Celtics, to the World Championship in 2009. Glad to be out of Toronto and recruited by the Miami Heat to become one of the BIG THREE, a team predicted to have a lock on winning the World title in 2011. Bosh’s numbers didn’t hardly change as he averaged 18.7 ppg, and 8.3 rbg for the Heat. Instrumental in helping his team all the way to the finals before succumbing to the Dallas Mavericks for the trophy and glory of retaining the World Championship. Probably the only thing that compares to the frustration of coming up short compares to his junior year at Lincoln and they faced San Antonio Lanier in the State Semi-finals, and the Voks completely frustrated Bosh who wound up fouling out, after his team which was projected at meeting Ozen in the finals for the title, did not materialize. Bosh has got to be proud of all that he has accomplished as a premier player and outstanding career. Although Miami didn’t win the title, learning from this past year, what is needed to win it all, will certainly affect how they strive to meet this years expectations. You might say the pressure is off, but it will be fun to watch who comes out on top in 2012!

All-Star games celebrate the outstanding achievements that the players and coaches have accomplished. Respected by their peers and coaches the contest is not to see who won, but rather a life-time acknowledgement of their careers.
