    The odds that Bosh comes to Houston INCREASED.

    Now this is something I can buy into. Vegas is Vegas for a reason. They don't often change odds on unfounded speculation. It's all business.

    -600 to -320 means the odds have gotten worse. you guys clearly don't gamble enough.

    Guys - The odds went down dramatically due to the Parsons contract getting handed to Morey. That's it. That's the only reason. As long as Lebron is still un-decided, and the clock keeps on ticking, the odds of Bosh to Houston are going to continue to go down and down and down.

    This should be no surprise.

    No according to that website, the odds got worse. moving from -600 to -300 means that it's less likely to happen. If the odds of getting Bosh increased, the line would have moved in the opposite direction.

    i posted about an hour ago. heat beat reporter on otl stated that bosh to hou for max was smokescreen so bosh could get max from mia. he also said if LJ left mia, mia would max bosh and wade and rebuild with both as a base.

    Maybe the odds decreased because the clock started on Parsons' contract, limiting how much time we have? I would think that played a big factor.

    Could be just because people starting taking those odds so much that the market shifted.

    Uh oh. I thought the posts earlier meant to have security at his house in MIAMI. But, if it's Cleveland. ...that combined with the odds going from -600 to -320 have me worried.

    I've been confident for last 2 months it was Cleveland. (Not to mention what poster said a few post back about Bosh to Hou being a smokescreen to get max from Mia)
