Feel bad for Bosh. I never really disliked him, even during Lebron's Heat days.

Always seemed genuine, without the ego and Hollywood hoopla that Wade and Lebron exuded.

The blood clot thing sucks. If Bosh has to retire early...at least he has two championships to show for it.

I posted this in the Heat thread but....

I have/had similar blood clotting issues. My Dr. literally wrote the book that med schools use. For some people clotting is hereditary and life factors (things I mention below) just make things worse. Usually treatment for the first one is a few months of meds, like he did last year. If a 2nd one happens they suggest blood thinners for life. A clotting issue for a guy who is young, black and semi-healthy is extremely rare! Generally you see this in very old Caucasian folks. The general cure is take blood thinners forever and don't do anything "dangerous". This works for most people b/c the vast majority of patients are old as hell and aren't active anyway. Most Dr.'s don't know what to do when they get a patient who is young and active.

Dude either doesn't listen to his Dr.'s or his Dr.'s are idiots and don't know how to treat the condition. The vast majority of clots start in the calf. Most clots come from some trauma to a person like a strained muscle. This calf strain should've been immediately accompanied w/ a short dosage (a week or 2) of blood thinners as a precaution. Even if they don't come from trauma (usually hereditary condition) they most likely start in the calf. The strain+a previous condition and no treatment, I'm not surprised. Plus for many people who get blood clots high elevations (airplanes) can cause clots. He should have not been allowed to fly to the all-star game with a calf strain. Plus dehydration causes clots, so if he was in T.O. drinking over the break :smh:. All these factors, I'm not really surprised.

I don't have the dudes med charts, but it doesn't have to be the end of his career even if its hereditary. You can play sports on blood thinners. The only real risk is to your head, as concussions are more dangerous. Football would be a hell no, but a Dr. would most likely say you shouldn't play basketball but give the patient the option.

Another option could be to take blood thinners full time in the off-season. During the season take an injection of blood thinner before or after flights. The injection wears off in 24 hours and your blood is no longer thin, so the dangers of concussion aren't any worse than anyone else. This may prevent him in playing in back to backs on the road but its doable.

Based on the article I read it sounds like his career doesn't have to be over.
 
There's nothing worse than getting the one thing you love taken away from you. Not saying Bosh has to retire but if it is indeed a genetic thing then that's a real possibility. Damn I get depressed just not being able to exercise if I get injured. Basketball's literally how the dude makes  a living (a very good one), can't imagine how it feels to hear that news.

Hoping for the best for Bosh
 
You guys are talking like he's dead already or something.

I wish him a speedy recovery but damn, this thread seems to have condemned him. Let my man live. We only got an initial report.

Wishing the best for him = condemned.

Ok sir
 
People are acting sad because it might be a major issue that can affect the career/life of a good guy.

Even if it's just a scare, it sucks he'd have to go through that after what he just went through last season.

Not sure what's hard to understand about that.
 
Damn not my dawg CB. Feels.

Damn bron to hell for making me hate bosh and dwade for 4 yrs.

Ill never forget my dude making that sus cowboy vid to get in the ASG. Joint was leaking zest everywhere. Dude stayed himself. I hope he pulls through.
 
It is easy to tell now, how much Lebron had the spotlight in Miami.
I/we didn't even know how much of a class clown or how fun that Bosh was, especially in front of the camera, because it was all Lebron
