    Im so glad a Bosh insider is posting here. Ive always wanted to tell Bosh that joining Wade with 12 scrubs will not get him in the finals. (again Bosh may be to dumb to understand that)

    I'll enjoy watching Lebron and Rose and Gibson and Noah and Deng destroy Herpes Wade and Rupaul Bosh. Should be fun to watch. Instead of having 1 billion chinese twitter followers Bosh will be gone fishing with Wade watching Lakers and Bulls battle it out. Man Bosh is dumber than I thought. But,he has a really long neck so he is really about 6'7 with bad knees. I'll take a healthy 21 yr old rookie salary Patrick Patterson thank you.

    i know for a fact that no matter how many times DasouthDakota has stroked bosh's member(s), and no matter if bosh signs with us or not, a troll is a troll.

    I'm a troll because I dont have 5000 posts? Or is it the fact that I dont view NBA transactions with rocket red colored glasses?
    All I did was post info that many people on this site already know. Bosh isn't coming to Houston.

    It's not like I'm ridiculing Yao, Morey Les or the Rockets organization. Ive been a Rockets fan since I was born. Went to Kenny Smith and Vernon Maxwells basketball camps. Remember those makeshift Rockets championship gear shops that sprouted all around Houston after we won our first championship. Im just a big a rockets fan as everyone on this board.

    Difference between me and some is that I'm a realist.

    To take Jeffries, i'd imagine they'd want the good (ie 2011) ny pick.

    DasouthDakota, unless the info is something they want to hear, people are not going to believe it. They only believe what they want to believe. The last guy that posted "insider info" got flammed too but only to have Morey confirm that did indeed try to get #2 from PHI. They probably scared away that guy too.

    If he's enamored with florida, you'd think he'd go to orlando rather than miami, at least if he ever wants to win anything....

    dude comes runnin' in with a nanny-nanny-boo-boo-i-know-something-you-don't-know routine. whether he has legit info or not, he came a'trollin'.


    oh, and i really don't care if bosh comes or not. my concern is for the rockets to put the best team they possibly can together. but for the record, my hunch is that bosh is coming.

    What are the possiblities for involving a 3rd team? Take the Hornets or Pacers for example. Is it possible that we send expirings and non-essentials to Indiana, Granger goes to Toronto, and Bosh to us? (If that scenerio would work, I'd rather just have Granger ourselves anyway).

    Or take the Hornets, who are looking to cut salary by trading Paul (maybe). Could they be interested in expirings and draft picks, but don't want Paul to be traded within the division. Paul to Toronto and Bosh to us.

    I'm not saying the numbers would work out or that it could be viable for all parties, just seeing if it's an option to pursue. The point being that expiring contracts have negative value to Toronto since they can just let Bosh walk and essentially get immediate return. Those expirings are valuable to teams looking for economic deals. Toronto gets talent, other economic relief, and we get Bosh without giving up talent.

    That said, I still don't really want Bosh, I'm just throwing it out there.

    You probably have very deep information about, where Bosh is going to be, you can even tell me where he is going to be July 8th, as a matter of fact, you can tell me were everyone is going to be at the end of free agency, but until the process is over, no one nows what is going to happen, today LBJ is a Bull, tomorrow, he is shaking, Pokorovs hand, so your information is based on presents "facts", but tomorrow is another day that will bring other facts

    I will laugh my a.s.s off when someone big signs in Houston, and laugh at all the insiders, just like you, that daily hype teams, Gms, players, etc, but miss horribly in their inside information

    How did I do this? My initial post simply stated that Bosh wasn't coming to Houston. That's considered "nanny-nanny-boo-boo"?

    Just making sure you know it's the right to swap picks right?

    I don't know if Toronto wants this because they will both suck really bad next year and will almost certainly be getting a top 5 pick so it's pointless but who knows...

    Damn, that was so innovative, you know, the sarcasm and all. Did you come up with the "jab" all by yourself?

    I don't know where Bosh will be July 8th (I'm not his personal assistant), but the same way it's a given that LeBron James won't be a Boston Celtic or Indiana Pacer, Chris Bosh won't be a Rocket.

    Again, keep hoping, and wishing all you want. We're a lot better off with our young pieces, and a healthy Yao anyway

    So you admit you're not particularly close with Bosh, yet you still have direct knowledge of a major secret, and yet the entire Rockets' organization - including one of the brightest GMs in the game - has no clue? You've been a member since November 2009, and suddenly decide to reveal this on June 29? And you have zero knowledge of what Bosh will ultimately do, other than that it doesn't involve Houston?

    I think you have to understand why people are skeptical.

    that'd be good. a yao/bosh combo at the c/pf position would be pretty awesome

    I'm not Bosh's best friend, or in his "inner circle", but trust me, I'm in the know.

    Yes, I've been a member since November 2009, and I revealed this June 29, because in November 2009 I didn't know what Bosh was going to do. I found out his intentions a few weeks back, I never really felt compelled to post the minute I heard it, because I have a life outside of clutchfans, and whenever I hear something, my first instinct isn't to go run and posit what Ive heard. Furthermore, I like coming on here also to read insider scoops, and just keep up with the Rockets in general..thats what I use the site for

    SInce I'm not World Wide Wes, or some high ranking league official, this is the only "inside scoop" I know of, because my family is very close with the Bosh family..so I wouldnt know anything else outside of anything relevant to Chris Bosh.

    Do you think Dallas has a legitimate shot at signing LeBron James? Yet, is that stopping Cuban from trying to acquire him?

    The Rockets have a "shot" per se, but a shot is like a 5% chance. Morey is probably hoping he can win him over with the analytics, and fans - but it isnt going to happen.
