You just asked me to name one. I named two. Thats all. Bosh and Amare. Probably for the asking price to move up the draft too?
If you mean he wisely decides not to overpay, then I agree. Of course, I think that's the proper strategy, and there are gobs of examples where overpaying can sink a team for years. Isn't it refreshing that the Rockets no longer drink that kool-aid? I think so. .
Sure. If we like to be the 5th to 8th seed every year. I guess. I can see us developing maybe Patterson to be a real good player as a way to get farther. Maybe we trade to get Anthony? I can see Brooks getting better or future draft picks in the low teens become gems. I can also see more years around the 5th to 8th seed. Not so bad. If Yao stays healthy?
I can't think for you, but the situation is pretty simple. The Rockets have assets, but it's not like Morey can put a gun to Bosh's head and force him to choose the Rockets. That is the key here. If Bosh doesn't come to Houston it won't be because Morey didn't have a good enough deal for the Raptors. It would be because Bosh preferred another team.
I voted Houston, but I highly doubt the deal listed for Houston is what will be the final package... IMO toronto is getting to good of a deal and if Houston gets Bosh its because he wants to come here, which means the deal. Also because Scola is an RFA and he has to agree to the trade I don't see him being included.
One thing is for certain: given how Bosh had treated the Raptors organization, and given how he has treated the fans in Toronto, they will not cave. The raptors are going to milk a team to death if they can... And given that I don't believe that the guy is worth it. Moreover, I don't believe thatthis team is not a contender as is with Yao in the mix. However, if the rockets trade for mr bosh than I will certainly support him.
