He's always plays well against the Spurs for whatever reason so I don't see why he wouldn't unfortunately.
Chris Bosh has never been a 3 point threat. As a matter of fact, he's 28.8% from distance in his career on 0.4 attempts per game.
As you can see in the above graphic, it has never been part of the Heat gameplan for Bosh to shoot 3s. In 3 seasons with the Heat, he has never shot better than 29%, which is a horrible percentage, and he averages less than 1 attempt every 2 games.
For reference, the league average from downtown is 35%.
Chris Bosh has never been a 3pt threat.
Now, Miami was barely able to survive the Pacers series, being pushed to 7 games. Were they reliant on Bosh from distance? Since he shoots a miserable percentage from deep and averages less than 1 attempt every 2 games, the Heat better hope he wasn't living beyond the arc. But...
Holy ! He took more than 2 3s a game, more than triple his career average, and shot 50%! Is this a statistical anomaly for a career 28% shooter?
In 16 games in the playoffs this year, Bosh has shot 31 3s and made 15 of them for a mark of 48.4%. He is shooting 45.7% from the field overall:
Can he continue this hot shooting from distance? Not only do the 3s themselves hurt, but it stretches the defense on a career-horrilbe 3pt shooter all the way out to the margins.
If I had to guess, I'd say the Spurs would be happy with Bosh jacking up 3s.
Mathematics say he is due to regress to the mean.
If he does, and keeps shooting the same rate as his career percentage, the Spurs are in excellent shape.
If he doesn't, the Spurs are in deep deep trouble.

na...he will probably shoot around 60% against us
not quite prolly 38% and thats more than enough to kill the spurs
I bet he's at home right now watching a looped video of his game winner vs Spurs earlier this yr.
If nobody put hand up or don't chase ball he won't shoot good.
Nope.
Instead, some scrub like Mike Miller will shoot 85 percent against us.
Probably the edited version where it cuts Norris Cole flopping on Leonard playing good D
And Tony Parker traveled like 2 possessions before that (obviously enough for Sean to comment on it)
happens tbh
Splitter need to lock him down.
Or Ray Allen
He's averaging one make a game. It's not something we need to spend a lot of time planning our defensive strategy around.
We just live with it unless he starts making them in volume.
Unfortunately. Bosh who has been shootin 30% vs pacers. Will probably shoot 50% vs Spurs. He owns us for some reason
Bosh can hit the long 2, which our defense allows by design. He's also good at taking Timmy off the dribble if Duncan goes out to the perimeter on him. We need to stick Tiago or Diaw on Bosh, and let TD stay home in the paint with Hasleem/Birdman
CB avg'd under 9 pts over 7 games vs Indiana, no matter what his 3PT %age, he's not a scoring threat.
in the playoffs, Spurs and Heat both shoot 36% 3G
I predict he hits one 3 every game...He plays so soft
He'll probably be wide open like we usually leave players for open 3's and we have the tendency to make players look better than they are. Now we have to watch him scream and unhinge his jaw for an entire series.
Chris Bosh is one of the two or three best in the league at hitting that 16-20 foot jumper when left open on the pick-and-roll. Since the Spurs defense is designed to give up that shot to a 4/5, it just means the Heat are a really difficult matchup for the Spurs. If Miami is able to go with their small-ball lineup then the Spurs won't be able to afford to cheat off anybody to run him off that shot, or else the Heat will be able to make two passes and shoot an open corner 3. Leave Bosh open, and he'll get in rhythm, shoot 60%, and even start pushing his range out behind the line. There are no good answers, which is why the Spurs are going to get humiliated.
Not against the Spurs defense he won't.
You are what you are and at the end of the series he will be around 29-30%
if he keeps playing like he has against indiana, i'm completely fine.
he will probably have and iblakaesqe 20/20 game or two
I would say Bosh would return to form, but with the history of the Spurs luck I would not be surprised if he catches fire and has a career best series from behind the arc. He is going to have a lot of wide open looks
BUMP
he regressed to the mean
