Chris Bosh will play and defend the center position with greater frequency this season, but he has accepted the reality that he will always have a slighter build.
“It’s been like that for three years,” Bosh said. “After about three years I said forget it and just be myself. I’m never going to be big and just bulky like that.
“I’m strong but it’s a wiry strong and it’s two totally different things.”
Bosh believes his quickness will make him an effective center in Erik Spoelstra's "position-less" basketball.
“They need me to be fast against other [centers],” Bosh said. “That’s my advantage. We want to make teams match up to us and that’s how it’s going to be here.”
