    Acting like this isn't a surprise is a curious reaction. They are asking him to take a LARGE pay cut if he and Lebron stay. By large we are talking AT LEAST 40 million if not more.

    This is a guy who is getting his last opportunity at a max contract. He's won rings. To act like "of course he walks away from money to stay with Lebron" is a pretty curious reaction.

    What a little b i t c h. Be your own man and stand on your own two. Does LeBron come into his bedroom at night and have his wife? Bosh is a grown man with kids, these quotes are shameful, and I hope they're fake. #LeBron2Cleveland

    Guys, the fact of the matter is that Bosh spoke to LeBron over the weekend and THEN actually took a call from Morey. LeBron must have seriously made him sweat. This thing is not a forgone conclusion either way.

    Now you all see why I don't want this guy... I wasn't hating just to hate... I had a gut feeling that he would be like this. We deserve better! :rolleyes::mad:

    Realistically, how much would Bosh be leaving on the table if he signs with Miami over Houston?

    10+ million a year? That can't be right. Can it?

    It seems almost silly that someone would pay 10 million bucks a year to ride bron bron's coattails.

    Yeah, him picking Miami just to play with LeBron is peculiar. Houston has a lot more to offer in terms of fit and pay. LeBron makes everyone better, no question about it, but Chris Bosh... he barely makes Chris Bosh better. And Spoelstra just winds up making Bosh worse. Playing the 5 does not suit the guy.

    I seriously question the intelligence and ability to process information of some of you. There is zero reason to be reacting at all to that Woj quote.

    Seriously, this is a quote from Wojnarowski himself, speaking about what Bosh might have said to Morey. Everyone needs to chill... If everything was done then there wouldn't need to be a meeting tomorrow between Riley and Lebron.

    Yeah, it almost makes you question the mental stability of the guy. Unless there's some kind of escalator built into his endorsement deal that gives him a bonus if he plays with LeBron or Kobe or something it just doesn't make sense. It's as if LeBron started some religion and Bosh wants to be the first dude to put on the black Nike sneakers and drink the sleepy juice.

    Bosh isn't being asked to take a pay cut any more. That whole strategy failed.

    man wtf are y'all talking about?! Dude has went to 4 straight Finals WITH Lebron. Why the hell would he WANT to leave? Y'all need to chill out and "get a grip". It doesn't make him a b**** if he prefers to play with the greatest player on the planet.

    I think it is, there is no tweet by Woj saying anything of the sort.

    Have you been living under a rock for the past two weeks? Or months, perhaps?

    The Rockets were always interested in Bosh. He's a perfect fit. But he's repeatedly stated his preference to stay in Miami, going back to the season. The only point in which Houston has become a realistic option for Bosh has been since July 3 -- i.e. the point in which LeBron staying in Miami was not a foregone conclusion. Likewise, the first time Bosh spoke to a member of the Rockets was today -- a day or two after he spoke to LeBron and sensed uncertainty in the Miami plan.

    Chris Bosh coming to Houston is likely dependent on the "Heatles" not sticking together. This is common sense and something 99.9% of the basketball world has known for quite a while.

    The dude is a weak player, and always has been. Having LeBron has covered up his weak game.
