Chris Bosh: When I first met him, “LeBron James” was a name, not a face. The year was 2001, we were at ABCD camp in Teaneck, New Jersey, and the internet wasn’t the Internet yet, at least not where I was from. So the articles everyone was reading from their dial-up modems didn’t have pictures. I read all of them, heard about this kid out of Akron who was turning everyone’s head. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little tight about it, too – I was 17, and thought I was pretty damn good myself. Then I saw him play. There’s a difference between being a teenager with game and a teenager with pro game. That was Bron. Everything I could do, everything I thought set me apart, he could do, too.
