Chris Bosh at the NBA Finals for the Tonight Show and Jay Leno
RaptorTalk —
By RaptorTalk Chris Bosh's media career took a big step forward as he did a great job interviewing the Boston Celtics and LA Lakers for the Tonight Show prior to the series start. Jay Leno and CB4 spoke before Chris started his player interviews. Bosh did his best "Cabbie on the Street" impression as he spoke with the likes of Kobe, Big Baby, Turiaf, Scalabrine (the token white guy), Fisher, Gasol and others. Best of all, Chris buried his Raptors jersey in the TD Banknorth Gardens (TD stands for Toronto ...

Chris Bosh Shows His Comedic Range, Gets Slapped By Kobe on National TV
FanHouse —
Filed under: Celtics, Raptors, Lakers, NBA Playoffs, NBA Videos, Boston, Los Angeles, TV and MoviesWe all learned this season Chris Bosh has plenty of comedic talent, and apparently The Tonight Show paid attention. Jay Leno had Bosh as his Finals correspondent in Boston last night. Via Mixmakers, here's the segment: Highlights include Glen Davis calmly explaining which Sex and the City character he'd be (at 3:50 mark) and Sasha Vujacic debunking those pesky Paris Hilton rumors ...
Chris Bosh Is Jay Leno's NBA Finals Correspondent
FanIQ Blog —
I think someone's going to have a solid career when his basketball playing days are over.
Jay Leno did himself well to tab Chris Bosh as his NBA Finals correspondent. As we've previously seen from his viral All-Star vote video, he's a funny dude.
Last night, his first appearance on the Tonight Show aired and it didn't disappoint. From Kendrick Perkins' inability to name a former Celtic to Brian Scalabrine embracing his whiteness to Sasha Vujacic reputing all Paris Hilton rumors, his interviews are genuinely funny.
Unfortunately for Glen "Big Baby" Davis, Bosh asked ...
Chris Bosh Is a Media Superstar
The Sporting Blog —
From FanHouse , who got it from Mixmakers , here's Chris Bosh covering the Finals on behalf of The Tonight Show . Bosh is absolutely brilliant at this; he's got a sense of humor, timing, and has no problem keeping the conversation hilarious. Plus, as an All-Star, he has the unquestioned respect of his peers. Oh, and he's down to earth and accessible to fans. So there's the magic formula for successful jock journalists: Current stars with the gift or gab who, like Bosh, are humble enough to understand the dynamic of the interview. Good luck replicating that en masse. In any case, it's still amazing that before this season, Bosh was known for ...
Chris Bosh is Really Funny
LOY's PLACE a celtics green blog —
The Tonight Show had Chris Bosh reporting from the Finals. He is really funny. I loved his All Star commercials but he is even funnier than that. Then again, Scal is pretty funny talking about being the token white guy and KG rubbing his chest for luck. And Big Baby is funny talking about which Sex and the City character he would be. Some ...
Friday Mini-Bullets
ESPN.com - TrueHoop —
Bill Plaschke of the L.A. Times: "The Celtics won Game 1, 98-88, on the momentum of a recovery that smacked more of professional wrestling than professional basketball. When Pierce crumpled on the floor after being apparently faked out of his kneecap by Kobe Bryant with 6:52 left in the third quarter, the Lakers led by four points. When he returned after just 1:45 had ticked off the game clock, the Celtics led by one. The 'Rocky' theme played. The crowd roared. Pierce hobbled out with drama dripping from every step. He was so hurt, he immediately began sprinting around the stunned Lakers defenders. He was in such pain, he hit consecutive three ...
Chris Bosh On 'The Tonight Show' with Jay Leno
Ball Don't Lie —
As mentioned earlier this week, Raps forward Chris Bosh landed a lucrative summer job with 'The Tonight Show' working as their special correspondent for the NBA Finals. Bosh attended the NBA media day on Wednesday, and made his Leno debut late last night. You'll have to stomach the first few minutes of painfully scripted "jokes," but trust me, it gets good. Highlights include Scalabrine talking about being the token Celtics' white guy (2:30), Kobe slapping Bosh's neck, (3:15), and Glen Davis explaining which Sex and the City character he'd ...

Chris Bosh’s Comedic Talents Go National
The Big Lead —
Forty-seven people sent us this video early this morning, and surely you’ve already seen this on every other sports blog, but that does nothing to dull its level of funny. Especially the Big Baby Davis moment at the four-minute mark.
Bosh At The Finals
RedsArmy.com - The Voice Of Celtics Fans —
This video probably shown up everywhere… but I’ll put it up anyway just in case.
Chris Bosh hits the Finals for Jay Leno and interviews the Lakers and Celtics. You can watch the whole thing if you want, but you can skip ahead to the 2:00 mark and blow past the lame jokes.
The highlight is this ...

Watch that Chris Bosh Video Again
ESPN.com - TrueHoop —
First of all, because it's funny. But then, to notice something that is pointed out by "Andy Roddick Beat Me With a Frying Pan" author Todd Gallagher: I was shocked by how much taller Chris Bosh is than Kendrick Perkins, and then how much taller Pau Gasol is than Bosh. For the record, Perkins and Bosh are both listed at 6-10. Gasol is listed at 7-0. This always interests me because the height listings the teams give are so off. The most jarring one I've seen was at the Olympic trials when LeBron James, who is listed at 6-8, 240 was taller and bigger than Elton Brand who is listed at 6-8 254. To think that Elton is such a load ...
Chris Bosh: The Newest Tonight Show Correspondent
MVN Outsider —
This video should be a solid way to wrap up the week, I think. Jay Leno appointed Chris Bosh as The Tonight Show’s official NBA Finals correspondent, and the Toronto forward stepped up to the plate big time for his debut report on Thursday. Check it out:
Loved the way Chris connected with the players, but best of all, the fella can definitely think on his feet. Could this be a sign of a future career for Bosh when his playing days are over, perhaps?
I think he’d be a great studio analyst, or better yet, he could take a full time job on Leno’s team. The used car salesman video Bosh made was ...

He's All Grown Up
Sports And The City —
In 2004, Access Magazine called Chris Bosh a "reluctant superstar." In April 2007, just last year, Bosh was called "a reluctant self-promoter" by the one and only New York Times. Oh my, how times have changed. Bosh is all grown up. He's a superstar, and he's not afraid to let people know it. If appearing on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno as a guest correspondent means you have arrived, well, Bosh has arrived. CB4 parlayed his recent internet video fame into the NBA Finals gig with Leno and company, and here's how it went: I wasn't a big fan of his last video, but I'm giving ...
More Coaching Changes - Crawford Fired in LA
Scarlett Ice —
It's true, Kings fans. Marc Crawford has been fired as head coach of the Los Angeles Kings after two years behind the bench. The hair product stores of Southern California weep silently. In unrelated news, you've probably all seen this already but our man Chris Bosh is quite funny. You don't have to follow basketball to understand this clip so sit back and enjoy.
The friscalating dusklight: Chris Bosh
Randball —
We’re thinking of using that as the subtitle of the last post of every day. Feel free to stay past 5:30 if the mood strikes. The full quote (from The Royal Tenenbaums, of course): The crickets and the rust-beetles scuttled among the nettles of the sage thicket. “Vámonos, amigos,” he whispered, and threw the busted leather flintcraw over the loose weave of the saddlecock. And they rode on in the friscalating dusklight. And Chris Bosh (from Roughkat): This entry was posted on Wednesday, June 11th, 2008 at 4:30 pm and is filed under Uncategorized ...
Some updates before game time
The Globe and Mail - From Deep —
A few quick updates to tide you over until game time: 1. For those Canada basketball geeks in the audience, this release about their new faces on the board of directors is very, very impressive, and further proof that Executive Director Wayne Parrish has pulled his weight. New president Therese Quigley has done great raising money and profile for McMaster University Athletics and then introducing Bryan Colangelo – no introduction necessary, I presume; Ron Foxcroft, formerly a world-class referee, now an observer on behalf of the NBA and a very successful entrepreneur; Jim Hunter – a Bay Street power broker who hooped at UVIC back in the day and Tom ...

But we have opinions on everything, so I decided to poke and prod a few of my compatriots for where they stand on the biggest issues surrounding Team USA.

Chris Bosh is to Video as Gilbert is to Blogs

No offense to guys who occasionally blog (Morris Almond), or those who try to go viral on the Internet (Kobe, Nash and Baron), but when it comes to being entertained, you have to give it up to Gilbert Arenas and Chris Bosh. Gil's blogs have been legendary, though many people are sleeping on the talent that exists within Bosh's mind. He's just plain funny. Peep this video of him clowning guys playing in the NBA Finals as a reporter. ...

Chris Bosh Dominates In Philly
Dime Magazine —
After an impressive summer, Chris Bosh put on a show in Philly tonight. Scoring 27 points on 9-16 shooting from the floor and 9-10 from the stripe, CB4 also grabbed 11 boards and dropped four dimes in the W. If he keeps it up, and Jermaine O’Neal can stay healthy , Bosh might not have to cover the NBA Finals any more…
A massive swelling
RaptorBlog.com —
One of the best books I've ever read is "A Massive Swelling: Celebrity Reexamined as a Grotesque, Crippling Disease and Other Cultural Revelations" by Cintra Wilson. The book is about how fucked up celebrity culture is and how fame destroys the soul of almost everyone who seeks it. It's one of the few books I've ever read that I would consider life-changing because it made me realize that being famous is not something that any well-adjusted individual should want to be. I don't know for a fact if Chris Bosh aspires to fame the same way we would like to think he aspires to win an NBA championship. I do know that he is involved in a lot of off-court ...
