When Chris Bosh came to the Miami Heat back in the summer of 2010, he did so as one of the best and most well-rounded scorers in basketball. He was coming off a season in which he averaged 24.0 points per game on 51.8 percent shooting, mostly while feasting on a heavy diet of post-ups and isolation plays while mixing in the occasional pick-and-roll or spot-up opportunity.

That all changed rather quickly over the last few years as he played with LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. Not only did Bosh sacrifice in terms of scoring opportunities and points per game average, but he became almost strictly a finisher, rarely ever posting or isolating compared to what he did with the Raptors.
