    "In the end where he and his family want to be is all that matters." You just proved my point. I'm confused.

    I'd rather go after Greg Monroe than Bosh.

    You don't know basketball if you think Bosh is just an "overrated has-been".

    He's 30, not 20, so I don't think this is all a ruse with no intent to leave New York. He wants to win, and stay in NY. Problem is, those two goals aren't aligned. The Knicks suck and have to tear it down completely and he knows it. It's only for four years of his life, and they can keep a residence in NY while he plays elsewhere and move back after he retires.

    Anyways, from what Bosh is asking for... 4 year, $64 million... HE IS NOT WORTH THAT! If we get Bosh, its because we couldn't get anyone else... Sign him for the MLE and that's it... That's how much I value him as right now... *tongue in cheek*

    Bosh would be the perfect four next to Dwight. Other than Kevin Love, who costs you players.

    Other than Lebron he fits our team better than any free agent.

    Then I guess you don't enjoy winning. Bosh makes this team a lot better and is a nice fit next to Dwight.

    Better than Love? I'd rather have us do a S&T with Minnesota.

    And Bosh can play center if needed be. I wouldn't complain a bit if our consolation prize is Bosh.

    I do enjoy winning but I feel like we aren't getting the same Bosh from when we first tried to get him with the iPad and all... :(

    Yep, and he plays great defense which Melo and Love do not.

    He said free agent, Love isn't a free agent.

    Bosh doesn't need to be that guy to help the Rockets. Back then, they needed any superstar, now they have two. And after the rockets re-up Parsons, they can't be players for guys like Bosh except via trade. Bosh costs you nothing player wise.

    Can't believe some people don't want Bosh. Heck...he's better than a Kevin Love trade, IMO, because you can keep Parsons and the Pelicans lottery pick. Perfect fit for us as well, and would also be one of our best defenders (not saying a whole lot on this team, but still).

    If they can get love without dealing parsons sure. But otherwise bosh and parsons is better than just Kevin love.
