Chris Bosh Tells GQ Wade Should Be Closer, Not Lebron

By Chris Rands on | From ranzsrants.blogspot.com

This is why I can't stand LeBron: you wanna be the "chosen one," you call yourself the king, you gotta act like one. You have to be 'the man' in clutch situations...the guy everybody looks to. When asked who would be that guy on the Heat, Chris Bosh didn't hesitate to answer. http://www.gq.com/sports/profiles/201201/chris-bosh-miami-heat-interview-style His response:

GQ: Quick hypothetical, toes aside: Let's say the game was tied. 10 seconds left. You had 30 points, LeBron's got 30, and Wade's got 30. You got the same amount of rebounds, same amount of assists—having the same great game. Who takes the shot at the end to either win or lose the game.
Chris Bosh: [immediately] Dwyane.
GQ: Why?
Chris Bosh: Because of his success in the past, given what he's done. He's a champ. He's an MVP, and he's hit a bunch of last-second shots. That's the time you have to put pride aside a little bit, and do what's best for the team. He's quickest, and he's gonna get a shot off. He relishes those moments.

I like how his response was immediate by the way. Bosh knows what most of us know, except for the LeBron James fanboys out there, he's not the closer and never will be. A great player, yes. But not a killer like Kobe, or MJ.
