Looking to clarify his comments regarding the importance of being on national television, Chris Bosh contacted the FAN 590 sports radio on Thursday night.

It had been reported that Bosh left Toronto for a place like Miami in order to increase his profile.

Bosh says he wasn't giving the reason he left Toronto when he made the comment, "I mean, really it's all about being on TV at the end of the day. Seriously, a guy can average (20 points and 10 rebounds) and nobody cares. If you don't see it, it doesn't really happen."

Referring to those comments, Bosh told the Fan's Doug Farraway:

"It wasn't in the context of why I made my decision. It was (about) the perceptions of players and how more popular players are considered better players (because they're on TV a lot). At no time did I refer to that as my quote, unquote bottom line or the reason I made the decision I made."
