“I’m going to be honest with you. I’m a competitor, man. I’ve been competing my whole life. A lot of people don’t really know that about me, but I’m a fierce competitor. Losing bothers me. Coming up short bothers me. It always has, you know, since the moment I started playing basketball and it kind of bleeds over into everything that I do. So I’ll just get ahead of it, and so you hear this from me: I’m disappointed,” Bosh said in the video.

For a player of his quality, Bosh might get into the Hall of Fame next year. But Bosh’s regret of not making it this year seems to have made him negative about finding motivation in waiting for the next year.
“One of the things people like to say is, ‘Oh, next year,'” Bosh said. “What if there’s not a next year? That’s something that I think about every day. And I hope you think about it as well: But what if there’s not a tomorrow? What does that even mean? That is a definite question that’s been on my mind quite a bit, but I just have to be honest with you guys. I’m very disappointed.”
