    In what logical world would Bosh leave $30M on the table?

    Yeah I agree we can afford to make that trade and still have depth but that is a truck load of young talent considering that Knicks pick could be a top 10 pick. Basically three fifths of a quality starting lineup for Bosh and the honor of paying him $120 million. A hefty price to pay IMHO.

    Exactly. A sign and trade is going to get done. And there's no doubt in my mind that we can put together the best offer.

    These guys are like school girls who can't decide on what dress to wear to the prom. They need to man up and pick a team. You think Jordan would have waited to see where other players went before he decided where he wanted to play? #### no, he'd pick his team and let the chips fall where they may.

    If Wade, LeChoke, and Bosh are alphas, why are they acting like betas?

    Honestly I'd imagine it to be a tough call for Bosh if it comes down to an extra 30 million guaranteed in Houston, or the 5 year deal to play with Wade or Lebron in Chicago (along with Rose and Noah)?

    Yeah truly exceptional given the right circumstances. For a team with length like the Rockets he becomes worth more. For team like Miami who has none and he makes fringe contender? He (Bosh) offers only more scoring therefore less value. For the Bulls? He adds more firepower but not necessarily a max contract worth 120 million dollars worth of attributes. For the Rockets? Paired with Yao? The length, Height advantage, rebounding, and scoring he is a max free agent and thats why they are probably more willing to offer the full 6 year max to pair that value that compliments Yao and their length better together. For Chicago and Miami he is a second option. Second options dont usually get max 6 year deals they get 5 year max deals behind the Wades and Lebrons. For Houston he is the main guy and gets the full 6 year deal. Its all about each teams value for the way he is used that provides a higher use of his skills according to that teams build. He is built to compliment the Rockets the most so he is valued higher there. I dont think he should get the max 6 years everywhere else to be the second guy on the team.

    If that's all Houston has to give up then let me tell you we should be signing on that dotted line quicker than you can say cheesy doritos

    If you had a chance at an additional 30 mil and join a good team wouldnt you take it as well?

    You are acting like houston is the GS Warriors or Clippers. We are title contenders with Bosh.

    So, Morey should convince Bosh to take #3 and let Morey work on #1 and #2.

    BINGO!

    This guy Broussard sounded like he was talking out his a$$.

    No sources to back up any of his talk.

    I've been stuck in bed and have watched espn off and on yesterday and today. He and Andande sound like they are just speculating. They do not cite any sources.

    I'd hope we didn't have to give up Ariza, Brooks or Lowry. I'd give Chase and Hill
