Chris Bosh received defense when one Lakers insider took issue with comments made by Rich Paul, one of the most popular sports agents in the basketball world, about one of the best trios in NBA history. According to Paul, Chris Bosh wasn’t the third star on the Miami Heat as people think he was.
“When you think about it, Bosh was the ultimate professional, he took a back seat and played a role,” said Paul about Bosh’s contributions to the team.”
Bosh joined the Miami Heat back in 2010, forming a “Big Three” alongside LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. Bosh became the third scorer on a team that won back-to-back titles in 2011 and 2012, serving as a versatile big man who filled many different roles on the team. Lakers insider Jason Timpf took to X and said that Rich Paul’s comments were disrespectful to the Heat legend.
Bosh is remembered fondly by Heat fans as one of the faces of the best team in franchise history.
