Bosh possibly going to the Rockets (or to the Lakers or Mavs) proves why the notion of Bosh taking a $10 million pay cut to stay in Miami was never realistic. With the Bulls, Rockets, Mavs, Lakers, Cavs, Suns and potentially others chasing James, Anthony or both, there are more teams than there are LeBrons and Melos (only one of each). Once James and Anthony have made a decision, the teams that lost out will be lining up to create a market for Bosh.
Thus, with James waiting for Heat president Pat Riley to revamp the roster and with
Dwyane Wade leaving $42 million on the table at age 32, Bosh is the member of the Big Three most likely to break away. Multiple league sources say there will be a close-to-max market for Bosh if Anthony and James stay with their respective teams. One of those people, an executive with a rival team, said the growing belief around the league is that Bosh would prefer a four-year max deal with another team to a discounted longer deal with Miami.
Any deal that Bosh and LeBron sign to stay in Miami would likely be very similar to their last ones, which included early termination provisions after the first three years. So, if James does return and Bosh agrees to take less in the first couple of years of a new contract, he’ll have the option of either collecting the rest near the end of it, or simply opting out to secure a more lucrative deal when that time comes.
Bosh
has said more than once that he doesn’t want to leave Miami. But if the unexpected happens, and LeBron bolts in free agency, it would be easy to see Bosh doing the same — for max money, and without having to deal with the decision of whether or not to take a discount.
that was a good investment" except maybe Houston.
at cats constantly referencing him as if Bosh is so much better. And don't tell me about Bron or 3rd options because he actually has Gortat beat in the one area that should impact (scoring). If you are gonna give $16+ mil to a 3rd option he better be doing something other than spotting up for 3 and playing pick and roll D...if you are trying to win a championship that is. If you are all about following the market then go ahead.
this how I know most of you nikkas don't know shyt. You put Bosh on the Wizards and he back to averaging 24 and 10
they would run their O through a 4 that doesnt wanna post? Would he have gotten them over the hump against Indy? Heat still beat the Pacers and put up a better fight against SA with Gortat and cap space.
