What a wonderful thing our economy is.
Chris Bosh will start Sunday’s all-star game and Doc Rivers was pretty emphatic Saturday about why.
"Because of the Canadian dollar,” Doc was saying this morning. “You know, it's grown in value, and so we figure we'd go with that.”
But seriously, folks, it just makes sense.
"I think he deserves it, I really do,” said Rivers. “I think he's terrific, a terrific player, and I think he deserves more attention than he's getting, so I think he should start.”
It'll be the second time the 24-year-old Bosh has started an all-star game
After being added to the roster by coaches in 2006, fans voted him a year ago
Coaches again added him this year and Rivers named him to start for the injured Kevin Garnett

If Chicago can get healthy in the stretch run after the All-Star break, they should finally get it together and take one of the last playoff spots. If I'm detroit or Boston I don't want to see this team in the first round.

Yes, Bosh is a terrific player on and off the court. As a Raptor fan and Canadian i very much appreciate CB4 as a player and as the type of man he seems to be. He is a star player without the exposure because he plays in Canada, a small market for basketball and the american medias overall. CB4 you make us proud!

Chicago is going nowhere because of their contract issues affecting team play and perforamance. The plus is they will get a decent pick...
