    Did anyone ask Donnie if his old man is sloshed in the bar down the street?

    I have seen Don Nelson smashed 3-4 times... the man is amazing...

    The prevailing assumption is that if LeBron goes to Cleveland then Bosh comes to Houston. What if, the Heat tell Bosh they will make him the "man" if he stays? With the right money that could be very appealing.

    That's a high possibility but if Bosh is SERIOUS about winning, why stay on a broken ship?

    His team couldnt win the title with the best player in the WORLD on it. Imagine where it will be without LeBron?

    Based on bosh's personality and lack of making his own decisions, it wouldnt surprise me if he indeed stayed in miami with wade and a bunch of nothing.

    I'm pretty sure Bosh knows he can't be "the man" on a decent team he never could

    Bosh being the man in Miami would essentially be like the Toronto days since Dwyane Wade is basically a walking corpse at this point in his career.

    Yeah Im actually not so sure Miami would want that. Bosh is not a first option, regressed some and is on the wrong side of 30. I'd think without LeBron they think rebuild - they might like a s&t for some young talent and picks.

    This. Isn't it safe to assume he won't be making up his mind in the next three days? Yes it is possible to sign a contract overseas, but how likely is it.

    it's possible, ipads and all, but the nba can also allow us to count it due to logistics as long as agreed to.

    Bosh bailed on Toronto largely because he hated being "the man" on a god awful team and being pushed to play center as much as PF. I'm sure he likes Florida more than Canada, but why would he suddenly love a situation he hated?

    The most Miami can do if James leaves is push lifestyle and a larger contract.

    Houston would offer a superior team and playing PF next to a star center for the first time in his career.

    He's not hoing to be able too so, we would have to sign Parsons and be locked up... unless LBJ leaves and we just move on from Parsons and get Bosh. Risk it for the biscuit.

    Indeed. Bosh has stated in multiple interviews that he likes being the 3rd guy and likes not having to shoulder the load. Perhaps it's trauma from Toronto fans expecting too much from him or something, but the guy is definitely lacking in terms of that superstars me-me attitude.

    Perfect for the Rockets since Harden and Dwight hogs the ball more than enough here in Houston.

    If Deron Williams can do it, so can Bosh

    I'm strongly guessing that's what ultimately goes down.

    Bron goes back to the Cavs.

    Morey and Riley work out a s&t for Bosh which is now necessary for him to get the max after the Dallas/Parsons offer sheet. I would imagine a pick(s) and a young player (T.Jones?) to Miami.

    Match Parsons.

    Good news, rockets haven't received offer yet. Won't get until tonight. Morey is working for a S&T just to prolong the offer. A S&T I'm sure he doesn't plan on doing. Earliest we'll get it is tonight.
