Howard is better defensively, but offensively Bosh is far and away the better player. I don't think it's a stretch to say Bosh is one of the ten best offensive players in the league right now. He's scoring 23 a game on 51% shooting, but the thing is his shots aren't all putbacks or dunks like most people with high shooting percentages (i.e. Dwight Howard), but he shoots from all over the court. He started a game in Chicago last week nailing 4 straight 16-20 footers in the first six minutes of the game. If he really wanted to, he could be an excellent three-point shooter as well, but with his size and quickness, it's really a waste to put him on the perimeter. Defensively, Bosh needs to get more aggressive. His blocks are down a bit. He's starting to take more charges now, but he's still fairly passive on the defensive glass, a good majority of his rebounds are uncontested. If he can improve his rebounding, he'll be a top 10 overall player in this league for years to come.
