NAW there have been mixed emotions. Most of us stood behind him but after shooting air balls and blowing dunks...only so much a fan can take. Sometimes he demands the ball only to shoot a fadeaway that bounces off the backboard or does not make it to the rim. So today the boos started.

[vctmac]

give me a damn break, bosh has one bad streak and you are all ready to throw him under the bus. When he was putting up MVP numbers you were all on his nuts, quit being so damn emotional and cheer for your damn team. If you can't hold in your frustrations then don't go to a game. Im as frustrated as everyone but that doesn't mean i act like a baby and start booing our team, in the ACC.

[Superboy316KING]

this is a perfect match

a crappy team and a crappy fan base.

yeah right, the raptors fan base are some of the most loyal fans.

we don't expect them to go out and win every game. If they play hard and compete, we'll support them. but they're not doing that now

[Harry Palmer]

I'm seriously amazed that the obvious response has yet to be made:

Chris Bosh to fans: If I want to get booed, I'll go on the road.

Fans to Chris Bosh: If we want to cheer, it looks like we'll have to do the same.

Good fan bases boo. Because they care. Bosh spoke of MVP. With players like LBJ, Kobe, CP3 etc thats big talk. He's a good player that's it. VC was right. Bosh MVP? Give me a break. He was wrong to show it. But he was right. Bosh is good, but not as good as he talks.

I would never boo Bosh, except when he deflefts blame. Orlando fans **** off.

[cage]

i can see bosh being run out of toronto by media/fans. the sad thing is we'll probably be stuck with bargs forever, because he can't speak english and therefore make comments that irks the fans

[garbage time]

. VC was right. Bosh MVP?

hahahahahahhaha

[Live Free]

It's called choking like Raps tend to do. Don't go to the game? LOL, that will help CB make his moola. CB talks a big game. And he has been largely disappointed by the organization. But shut up and accept it like a man. He wanted to be MVP. Which means a minimum 50 win team. We are lucky to make playoffs at this point. MVP,MVP,MVP.

don't be a jackass, remember when Chris would put up multiple 35+ point games and we'd still lose? getting no production at the wing spot on defense and offense.

remember when kobe had to score 50+ points a game 5 straight times just to get 8th spot.. dont trip. we still got a long way to go.

what we have to do is move Bargnani and whoever else it takes to get a SOLID wing player.

Disagreeing with Madmo equals jack ass, ahhhhh, got it! Did Kobe call out Laker fans for booing pathetic efforts? Did Laker fans give a ****?[/quote]

i aint callin u jackass for diagreeing with me.. you can disagree with me all you want.. im just sayin to not be a jackass by tripping on chris bosh just because he had a bad game.

btw, whats Kobe going to say? stop boo'ing my right hand man starting point guard Smush Parker?

I **** love CB4, would hate the Raps losing him and would love to see him end his career here. He took the whole organization, along with all of our hopes, on his back after VC left. He's been so passionate about improving and winning since he came here. I remember when VC was still a 'tor and he turned the ball over or something and the camera showed him laughing while CB was looking really pissed off. That was when he was a rookie (maybe second year). Most of the teams in the league would love a franchise player with his passion for winning. The thing is, he hasn't been the same for the last few weeks or so. Ever since the MVP/Mitchell/2010 talk, he seems to be missing something. Ya, he's still putting up decent numbers, but unfortunately, he's put this on himself.

The majority of Raps fans are from Canada and we as a people value hard work and the drive to succeed. Raps fans were used to our role players being the hardest workers on the team (ie. JYD... yes, i got him in!), we've never really seen it from our star players. I'm not ragging on any former players here it's just my opinion. CB has always focused on not only making himself better as a player, but also on making the players around him better as well as making the team better. We just haven't seen that determination in a little while. He had it for a nice five minute stretch after that blown dunk tonight. He played great defense, moved without the ball on O, and drove to the bucket three out of four offensive sets. He had been doing that consistently for the first month and a half then he stopped. I think a lot of it had to do with the losing. He was playing at a level just below LBJ, Kobe and CP3 and we we still losing games and slipping to/under .500. Frustration has to take a toll. The players around him are so inconsistent.

About the fans at the ACC, why the f*** are they (or we, wahtever) always sitting on thier hands? When the team's in a slump get loud. When they need a stop get loud. When the team needs a lift GET THE **** OFF YOUR FEET!!! How bonehead are we? How can we have some opposing coaches/players saying that our 'barn' his the loudest they've ever been in, and others saying it the quietest? CB is right to some extent, even though I hate hearing players whine about fans, especially since they are terribly overpaid while we have to pay to watch them get paid. I'm not complaining about how much they get paid because sports are an excellent release from the everyday grind, but sometimes I wish they were able to put themselves in our shoes.

Hopefully, they can get three out of the next four games to get things going. I hate not wanting to watch the games (which I still do, of course); it's getting sad. go raps go.... please!


that's my rant, sorry for the swearing

if you didn't go to the game tonight than maybe it's a good idea to shut up about fans booing the team. Cuz by paying $100 or more per ticket, they support the team far more than whoever sat behind the tv. If they want to boo let them, they boo because they are not getting their money's worth and that's their choice. If underperforming for a stretch of 15 games (many of those games the raps were blown out by 30+, if that don't deserve booing what does?

The mentality of the people who tries to shield the team's shortcoming now is exactly the mentality the team has adopt over the past 2 season. SOFT. These are the people instead of buckleling down and practice their ass of, they say "it's only the 8 th game, we can still make up loss ground", then a month later "we're only a quarter into the season we can still turn this thing around". Next thing you know the franchise is back to its loser mentality and used to losing every night. You can see it already, the players on court now are expecting to lose.

I was at the game basically courtside. & I can tell you this, we have one of the stupidest unnecessary hostile fans that come to the game. like ****, guys behind us didn't know shi*t about who was on our team and every miss they called them a bum. like wtf!? and were down by a couple and catching up but yet still getting booed. **** most of these beer chugging basketball-watching hockey fans.

I feel ashamed just to be a part of this city sometimes.
I snuck a glance and Mark Cuban and from his body language showing to one of the fans there, he couldn't believe it.

[Death Knight]

Go f*** yourself Bosh. If blowing leads wasn't such a trend, the fans wouldn't be booing. There are arenas in the league where fans actually cheer on their team when they are down in hopes of giving the team energy to pick themselves up (Utah I know is one for sure). However, those teams don't blow leads as often as the Raptors. When blowing leads become a habit, it can be quite sickening, and fans have every right to boo.

I watched the postgame interview as well, and I didn't like how Bosh said, had he made a couple of more shots he would be shooting 50%, so it was really that bad. Come on................really???????????? Bosh is really 4-18 instead of 6-20, when you consider the fact that he made 2 useless baskets towards the end when it didn't really mattered anymore, because the game got out of hands already with very little time left. Maybe Bosh should have made those baskets when it counted and the game was actually close. But when it got to a 10+ pt lead for the Mavs, the game was pretty much over.

Even if Bosh goes on a tear moving forward, and the team goes on some 20+ game winning streak, it won't change my view on Bosh. I've made up my mind already that he not the type of player you build around to win a championship. He'd choke in the playoffs again and again and again.

It's just as well the team goes on the road, too much pressure right now.
