Whenever I see a Chris Bosh/Toronto story two things pop into my mind.
First is: Why does Toronto care? Not everyone likes you Toronto. It's okay. You don't need constant emotional validation.
The second is: why is he still trying to constantly justify in the press his decision a decade ago? He left cause the organization wasn't run very well and he couldn't win here. End of story. All of this other bullshit (26 hours in customs!!!!) sounds to me like he has some regrets about how he made his decision and he's constantly trying to convince himself he did the right thing. Even this whole podcast: Bosh's decision had literally nothing to do with any 'player empowerment' movement. He was a free agent. He left. He wasn't any sort of trailblazer for anything.
I wonder if a part of Bosh looks at Derozan and even Lowry and sees how beloved they are in Toronto, and how they had more success there than him, and sees his own world where he is pretty much the forgotten third wheel of Lebron and Wade. That has to bother him.
