    We know that. Bucher knows that. But I'm beginning to wonder if Bosh realizes it.

    Man Carmello and Yao would be a beast against anyone. I would really like that combo. You know what could happen if Bosh comes to Houston? We have Yaos expiring contract. Maybe Morey feels Carmello and Bosh could win us more games than Bosh and Yao and he moves Yao for Carmello or Paul?

    Bosh is a person. He's capable of being swayed by feelings as well as logic. Yes, from an objective standpoint, one can say that Houston makes the most sense. We are stable, have a baseline of talent, and a front office that can help him win going forward.

    But Bosh has played with Lebron and Wade in the Olympics. He's friends with both. He has an agent with Wade. He's happy that people want him to join one of the premier players. He's probably thinking, "Hey, this is cool!"

    That's why it's up to Morey to slap some sense into the kid. :grin:

    But Morey needs the kid to give him a full session in order to administer said slapping! :grin:


    Or has he? And has Morey mind tricked him into not tweeting about it? :)

    Latest tweet by Ric Bucher: Hou makes the most sense for Bosh. Best S&T offer, he gets to play PF next to All-Star C (Yao) + he's set up as main star moving forward.

    KBerg_CBS Source indicates there will be no decisions tonight from Wade or Bosh: "They're processing all of the info."

    "all you base are belong to us" from KING JAMES, D-WADE, and BOSH to the front offices of CHI, MIA, NY, and HOU

    We're not glamorous enough. He wants to be a rock star.

    Could KMart be in this package? I would really want Brooks, Martin, Bosh and Yao playing together. Man it's like a dream come true.

    If Martin is in that deal, then that probably means we are clearing some space to make another big move. However, if we do get Bosh, I dont see Martin going anywhere.

    Maybe in a package for LeBron or Melo. Not Bosh.

    There are plenty of players who contracts make them more of a liability than an asset, or in laymans terms, makes them worth less than nothing.

    Monday? Ha, expect this thing to drag out until Thursday....monday will be the day the FAs come back tot he teams and try to counter negotiate...then the teams will come back within a day or two and then either they'll come to an agreement or not. that's where someone like Bosh will shift his focus to Houston if he's doesnt like their final offer.

    Weird how James is seen as the guy everyone is waiting for to decide first...but i think it's going to be bosh who decides first by either agreeing to join someone somewhere or by saying he's out of any partnership and goign directly to houston.

    If Bosh just walks (no S&T), and Toronto renounces Amir Johnson, Rasho Nesterovic, Antoine Wright, and Patrick O'Bryant, they'd have $8 million to sign an FA. Or, they could keep all those guys and use their MLE.

    Were I them, and I lost Bosh for nothing, I think I'd release the FAs and re-build.
