    I definitely agree that money, family and location were the primary if not the only reasons Bosh and Melo chose Miami and NY and Lowe's article gives me no reason to think he'd argue otherwise.

    His little blurb on H & H reputation only goes to underscore his opinion that it MAY have been one of the other factors Bosh took into consideration. Do I believe Lowe would argue that it is a major factor or that he knows for a certainty Harden/Howards reputation was even definitely a factor... No. But is it really that unreasonable/outrageous to think there is a reasonable possibility that Bosh thought about that aspect along with many other aspects related to moving/Houston/Conference/ etc.

    IMO Lowe's article was more than fair (aside from an exaggeration in calling the Lin trade a catastrophe) and that his musing on Bosh's thinking & Howard/harden's reputation were not "logically challenged" or not in keeping with journalistic "standards" as some have claimed. Of course YMMV.
