    Other then Dallas being his hometown, I wouldn't understand why he would choose them. I can't see him holding up in the Western Conference playing Center. I know that have Tyson Chandler, but still. I cant see Dirk coming off the bench so that Bosh can start at PF. Houston is the perfect fit for Bosh and Bosh is the perfect fit for Houston.

    Bosh is the better defender of the three and can pick and pop with Harden. Better fit than iso Melo or rebound over defense Love.

    Putting a lot of pressure on Lebron. It went from retooling to just wade.

    Are you OK with $15 for Bosh and $5 for a back up center?

    How exactly would our offense change? Bosh is quick for a big man who would be able to keep up with our pace and has a credible midrange out to 3 point shot to space the floor more effectively than anyone we had last season at that spot.

    Everything would be the same we would just have a much better player holding down our 4 spot.

    And please don't comeback with some bs about midrange being forbidden.

    The Rockets should leave the poster of Carmelo in the locker room and put one in front of it in oversized letters with the terms of the offer to Bosh. Then another that analyzes how much he would lose by staying in Miami with big wade and big share.

    I'm going to agree with this guy. Morey is looking to add midrange to the Rockets arsenal after watching the playoffs. Two years of depending on 3s and at the basket buckets is making us way way way to easy to defend in the playoffs. Harden and Bosh make a pretty formidable midrange duo threat small-grouping pair twins couple. I'd like to see our existing 4s, mainly DMo, work on his 16-18 footer. If we had any player that could hit the midrange like Yao could and not be a defensive liability like Yao was not, we would be a far more dangerous team.

    Hear that DMo? Work on your defense and midrange and drop the 3-ball.

    Hear that Morey? Stop pushing the 3 or paint agenda so much! It only works during the regular season. Taking what they give you works in the playoffs.

    Speaking of... Dwight should be adding something to his arsenal that will make teams respect his outside game. A midrange 10-12 footer would do that! If he gets that going, he would own a large circle around the basket and command many double teams making us super dangerous. WWHDTO? What would Hakeem Do This Offseason? Add something to his offense that makes him even harder to guard.

    Yeah, that and shooting 1000 free-throws a day. He took the 4th most in the NBA last season, being able to hit 75 to 85% would be a huge add to his game.

    Is Bosh, Kevin Love? No. Has Bosh gone past his peak? Yes. Do we have T Jones to back him up? Yes.

    So if we strike out on Melo and the only way to get Love is to trade Parsons...go hard for Bosh.
