    He's interested. That is all that matters.

    You shouldn't have expected him to automatically commit to Houston after meeting with Morey.

    Wow, that's cold, I guess he is not interested at all.

    But he isn't even offering a follow-up meeting. That says something.
    Unless this is to force hand with Toronto.

    This is feeling like the Chris Webber free agency a few years back.

    I don't understand what's negative about that article at all. Did you guys think a freakin' 20-minute presentation at his house at midnight was all it would take to seal the deal? Of course not. There will be lengthy meetings with Bosh and his agent, you know, the guy who actually runs the show. And no, a team like the Rockets that can't sign Bosh straight up isn't going to be one of the first teams to interview, because that would destroy his leverage with Toronto.

    I'm very encouraged by that article because it tells me Morey is in Chicago and ready to go. Now, if Saturday gets here and we still haven't seen a meeting between Morey and Bosh's team, that would be worrisome. Now? No.

    I guess you guys are ready to say Chicago and Cleveland are both out as potential LeBron destinations, since both aren't meeting with him until Saturday or later, right?

    Don't think he offered one to the other teams as well.

    He met Miami in Dallas and in Chicago again.
    Correct me if I'm wrong.

    I think you could actually take the article as a positive for the Rockets. Even though Thomas downplayed the meeting, he did say the Rockets were on the radar. That means Morey made a positive impression on Bosh in the introductory meeting.

    Come on, folks. It's impossible to tell from that article what level of interest Bosh has in joining the Rockets. Hopefully people won't be too surprised and crushed if he ends up not choosing Houston. All the teams are making compelling cases for him to come there, and he can only choose one, so the vast majority of fans are going to be let down. Even if Morey makes a great case for Houston and Bosh at some point seems receptive to the idea, people shouldn't get their hopes up too much.
