When Chris Bosh decided to leave the Raptors to sign with the Heat, he was seeking additional national exposure in addition to a better chance to win. While Bosh is unquestionably on a better team this season, the attention has been more difficult to quantify. According to the Raptors, Bosh had 553,230 all-star votes through the second returns last season. This season, Bosh has received just 260,007 votes through the second returns this season.

With Toronto being "Canada’s Team," Bosh had 30 million people behind the Toronto Raptors. Bosh complained about not getting much exposure with Toronto and that was one of the main reasons he left Miami. Do you think his talents are being overshadowed because of LeBron and Dwayne? Or do you think it has to do with more than that?

I think Bosh is getting hated on too much and most of it is his fault. But can you name 20 better players in the league then Chris Bosh?

Granger, Manu, Joe Johnson, Boozer, Garnett are not better then Chris Bosh. And Chris Bosh is doing the same thing with Miami that Pau Gasol is doing with the Lakers and that is fitting in where he can get in while providing the team with an elite big man talent to contend with other teams. And notice only 7 post players were mentioned 2 being Boozer and Garnett I disagree with making it 5 post players that I agree with being better then Bosh in the whole league. So with them stats I feel like he deserves to be an All Star especially since Scalabrine plays in the West and he don’t have to contend with the red headed votes.
