[Mike & Mike ESPN] Jon Barry Says Rockets Still Interested in Bosh

Yeah Heard that also. Would only do it for scola not for scola and lowry/Pat.

 

Heard that too, he was probably confused, thinking the Bill Simmons quip was actually a scoop.

 

Funny thing is....Bosh was more valuable in the Finals than "LeChoke".

 

If it is for a aging Scola more like hell yeah.

Scola is not better than Bosh, he just isn't. Sure you'll have to look at the contract and what not but he'd be a major piece to the team and I think the hard working non-stop never say die attitude of Chuck and Lowry would rub off on him.

 

I say do it because he's the closest to a Tier 1 star we are ever going to get.. If you can keep Martin,Lowry with Bosh that would be a much better CORE than what we have now..

It's about building a Championship team and not a 1st round Playoff team.

Bosh gets a lot of bashing on this board but he is still an exceptional player and can be better on this team... Look what he has done so far with Lebron and Wade taking away his touches.

I LOVE PAT PAT but I know it's going to take at least Pat,Scola,Dragic,Money,Pics,3rd Team for any trades to take place for Bosh..

You only pay max money to stars.

 

That's way too much to give up for Bosh.

He's not a guy you gut your team for.

I honestly don't want him on this team. I just don't.

He's not worth the contract he got and he'd be owed even more money once traded thanks to his 15% trade kicker.

 

im pretty sure that bosh was the most consistant player on that heat team and there is no way the heat would of made it to the finals without chris bosh.. his jump shot is ridiculous!!!

 

All of it wouldn't go to the Heat because a 3rd team would need to be involved and we would take back some Assets other than Bosh..

I'm pretty sure Morey is still interested in Bosh.. If the status Quo (borderline playoff team ) is going to remain then you have to trade for a Tier 1 star.. We are never going to acquire a Tier 1 talent through the Draft...

 

Assuming the Rockets aren't going to tank, I don't see any reason why Scola/Patterson/Lowry is so out of the question.

Bosh himself basically replaces Scola and Patterson. The former is an old vet who is a lesser player than Bosh. And Patterson isn't going to develop in a place where he has an all-star in front of him.

So it comes down to Lowry. Basically, how irreplacable the Rockets find Lowry to be. There are two ways to think about this. One is the possibility of CP3 or DWill coming(if the Rockets have some under the table talks). The other is simply how confident Morey is at pulling another "Rafer for Lowry" type of a deal. Or even perhaps he may feel Dragic/Llul/1st round pick this year can make it work.

I know Rockets fans think Lowry is going to be the next big thing, but young players aren't automatically going to keep improving. Aaron Brooks is a good example of this. No matter how much I love Lowry, if he's replacable, then I don't mind seeing him leave for a better player.

 

Huh? The draft is the best way to get a star....all it takes is for the Rockets to just lose a few games...like 50 or so...

 

Uhhh you forgot the sentence before that..

"If the status Quo (borderline playoff team ) is going to remain then you have to trade for a Tier 1 star" This team will never go to tank mode so forget the picks 1-7

 

if we still had adelman, i would still get bosh with the quickness. but mchale? ehh

 

People can rag on Bosh all they want, but he is a really good player. I'd give up pretty much any player but Martin.

Ideally something like Dragic/Scola/Hill but it would probably cost you Lowry.

 

Scola and Bosh both have no defense...so i'll take the one with lesser salary.

 

Bosh isn't a Tier 1 talent.

And please poeple stop with this Lowry/Patterson/Scola nonsense.

It's awful for the Rockets, even if you really like Bosh.
