    Yeah and didn't that story come out after the first reports of the full max offer to Bosh from Miami?

    I'm waiting for the site to crash when Bosh makes this no brainer deal to sign with us.

    If Miami gives Bosh and Wade full max's, sign McRoberts for full MLE, sign Napier, keep Cole sign Granger for BAE, add roster cap holds and the heat will only have 6-7 million to sign another key player.

    Cole/Napier
    Wade
    Granger
    McRoberts
    Bosh

    and 7 million to spend in free agency, are you ****ting me? Bosh's decision should be easy.

    If Bosh wants a chance to contend, he will come here. If he wants to make money and repeated get knocked out of the first round, he will stay.

    y'all need to CHILL. That extra year is almost always useless. This is just scare tactics from Miami for a S&T. Not to mention, most players opt out of the final year of their contract, meaning that 5th year is irrelevant.

    In all honestly. . . i think someone needs to point out to Chris that 80 million in 2016
    LeBron and Parsons looking at it.

    It's "run in circles, scream and shout," solid.

    Wouldn't Bosh stand to make more money making a couple of championship runs in Houston than he would making second round exits in MIA (especially now that LBJ is gone)?

    Morey already got the commitment. Bosh was willing to take a pay cut to play in Miami for a championship. He will do the same for Houston.

    Eh... opt out of the final year at age 34?

    Not when you are 34. At that age, another year of 20+ mil is a lot

    Should be an absolute no-brainer... I hope Bosh is about winning.

    Very nervous about this though. Seems like a real chance he stays.

    So I guess we'll see what Bosh really wants:

    To be a part of a new organization that values winning and going back to finals

    OR

    To be part of a rebuilding process to where the future is uncertain, but digs the beaches! :rolleyes:
