bosh has a fantastic offensive game that keeps on improving, Howard might never fully develop one.

my thinkings exactly, and I'd like to see some more blocks out of Howard. Right now he's beating Bosh by about .5 blocks per game at 1.8, despite his size advantage. His 2 extra boards per game just don't compensate enough for 4 points (they play about the same minutes). If Dwight could become more of a defensive stud and get his pts/game up to 20 I'd reconsider, but by then Bosh will be dropping 25/game.

Bosh > Howard imo. His ability to hit an outside shot (getting better, given that he just started shooting 3s) coupled with his quickness and athleticism make him pretty ungaurdable.

Reading through this thread I'm reminded of this question that I had during the games:

How on earth did Bosh and Howard not completely dominate the games when they played for Team USA? I just can't imagine how those international teams stopped them.

Howard played pretty well, Bosh (for the first time since I've started watching him) didn't give a [censored]. He didn't try to do anything other than what was completely offered to him.

yea bosh was terrible on the US team...howard played well, but having so many shoot first wing guys doesnt exactly provide alot of opportunities for the bigs to take over

IMO he has dropped off a good amount, and a lot of his numbers are a result of Jason Kidd.

In a situation of Kobe, T-Mac, Pierce, LeBron, Joe JOhnson, etc. I don't think he would be able to put up the same numbers because of those teams lack of a point guard.

I also hate his attitude/demeanor, and have two similar (albeit players that I like a lot more) in Pierce and Mcgrady around 30.
