    It means he doesn't care about winning championships in which case I don't want him. We need someone who'll come in and not only earn that 22 mil, but be a veteran leader for this group. Seriously, this is not a tough decision from a basketball standpoint. Bosh seems more concerned with where he's living.

    Doesn't Bosh realize that the Heat behind the scenes were trying to push him out before they knew LBJ was leaving?

    Well Woj and Amick, the two best sources in the business, are saying they don't have a commitment yet.

    Bosh is staying, he doesn't want to be seen as the guy leaving Wade behind since Lebron left not strictly for monetary reasons while he would..

    I agree, though I'm pretty sure Miami will more than make up for that 42 million dollars he opted out of.

    No they weren't. This was a media myth.

    Why would Miami even still want Bosh? They aren't contending without LeBron. Hell, they might not even make the playoffs.

    Keep in mind that Miami beat reporters have been "reporting" positive LeBron stays with Heat news for much of the past few weeks. I'm not saying Bosh will definitely sign with us, but this is pretty iffy source.

    But if Miami's offering max, it would sound pretty disingenuous from Miami's side after Riley wouldn't even commit to $15mil/yr back when LeBron was still in play.

    Again, that means he doesn't want to win. Staying in Miami so as to not get bad PR(really though, will anyone honestly be mad if he leaves now that LeBron is gone?) and because he likes living there shows he's got some really screwed up priorities.

    Yeah, I am hopeful for Bosh....but would not call this a slam dunk.

    I'm guessing you're talking about the rumored deal Miami is offering him. You're leaving out the report that he is willing to take a little less in order to sign with Houston. All of this nonsense of "he doesn't want to let Wade down", I doubt that plays a part in it. Especially when he just saw Lebron leave for home, which is technically what Bosh would be doing coming back to Texas.

    Wade is probably leaving to Chicago after Melo chooses to stay.

    I decided to visit Lakers Lounge to see what they think about getting Lin (honestly if they keep MDA, it wouldn't be that bad of a deal), and they want to also get Asik Jones and DMo for free. Some people want us to take Nash in return. Yup every fan base is biased, I'm going to stay here lol
