I'm calling that the first narrative we see us how the smart move is to dump Bosh after his waste of a game 7.
I am certain Bosh is a very good player, but being on a team with two MAX & high usage players, it may be possible to get someone cheaper who can 9 times out of 10 provide a similar on court performance given the team around him. And it isn't like the Heat have to move him, it isn't an issue at all (to keep him I mean) in my understanding, but he is a valuable chip that the Heat do have should they want to explore it.
Rumors are running rampant in Charlotte that the bobcats (hornets) want to move their lottery pick for bosh.
If that happened who would the heat target in the draft? Someone like Anthony Bennett or Cody Zeller?
I agree with the second sentence, but not sure about the first. By that I mean I am sure it is important, but I don't know that the Heat couldn't find a way to be extremely effective without it. What's lost in outside shooting may be offset by rebounding with another player.
Heat Dynasty> Pats Dynasty by virtue of the fact that Brady is the softest QB in NFL history. That **** started with the Whitlock article 3 years ago.
If the Heat traded Bosh they'd simply be looking for another Bosh, a big who can defend and be an outside release valve for LBJ/Wade. Might as well just keep the guy that you know, who is a hard worker, good teammate, and most importantly appears satisfied with his role on the team. Also, for all the outside criticsm that bosh gets, the team seems to understand his importance and he is still the guy that LBJ and Wade chose to have with them. Watch the video last night of the team lining up for the team picture. Wade basically dragged Bosh down to the front rown to sit next to him and LBJ. He's still their guy, so you don't trade that unless you're getting LaMarcus aldridge or Kevin Love something

Whack it equates to drinking it..... Seriously though I dont even take medicine.....a little water and 5 hour energy....
Being a Heat fan is so much more gratifying than being a Dolphins fan nowadays. I hate to say it but it's true. At least when Heat fans are fapping all over message boards, it's over stuff that's worth fapping over. When Dol-Fans fap on message boards it's because Richie Incognito said we're building a balanced offense and errmagawd he thinks Ryan Tannehill is a good quarterbaaaaaack!
I really don't see a market for Bosh. With the new CBA coming in, most teams will only be able to afford one max (or near max) deal. Hard to find a team that would want to use that one spot on Bosh.
Congrats Heat fans - I was obviously cheering against y'all, but you were the best team all season and deserved this one.
Ok Sick, now that we have established that you are a panda, please do not try and stab the angry lemur in the straw hat because chances are it's just the mail man delivering the mail. Also, please go back inside the house and don't even think about driving in this condition. Sent from my phone using Fapatalk 2

No. he went nuts. he shot 7-12 in the midrange. those are numbers that just don;t happen, unless you are Stephen Curry or ...Chris Bosh. And yes..they are a BIG Three. All Three are all-stars, all three are sure fire Hall of Famers. So yeah...Big Three. hate us.
Which makes it a rather dumb narrative. Guy shot a career high this year, and adapted his game to whatever was asked. His only issue was with Roy Hibbert as he kicked Joakim Noah's ***, and played Tim Duncan even int he series as he outplayed Duncan in 3 games, lost his matchup in 3, and then pulled even in another. So of course...trade him. That is just all kinds of stupid. Not like they won 66 or 27 in row and a second championship in a row with him or anything.
He's incredible in Miami's system. A perfect fit for them. If he's not surrounded by LeBron and the Heat, I don't know that he's still a center. And I really don't think he could carry a team by himself, which was more my point. In the new CBA, max deals are going to be at more of a premium, so if you're giving up assets and using the majority of your cap room, you have to look at your team's ceiling. What is a Bosh-led team's realistic ceiling?
LOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOL Why would Miami give up one of the top PFs on a team that has been to the finals 3 years in a row for the #4 pick in a weak draft class? Whoever is spreading this is spreading absolute nonsense.
Wasn't the point of the criticisms about the Heat having turned into just another Cleveland team that NOBODY can carry a team by himself, not even the best player in the world? So why are we talking about whether Chris Bosh can carry a team by himself?
Someone brought up trading Chris Bosh. I pointed out why I thought that was a flawed idea. But yes, my being a Cavs fan is certainly relevant here. I came on being classy and congratulating everyone. Don't be a sore winner.
The issue isn't sour grapes or the lack thereof. You don't have those. The issue is your mentality as shaped by the team you follow pursuing a Get The One Man roster strategy. I generally think that people let their teams' successes and failures, not league wide phenomenon, shape their sports opinions. No other reason to present Chris Bosh in a "is he the man?" scenario. It's a false premise.
But if the original idea was trading Chris Bosh - between the assets given up to GET Bosh and the new CBA limiting the number of teams that could pay another star to play WITH Bosh, it would be difficult to find a trade for him, no? A team would be sacrificing players and the ability to acquire players to acquire Bosh, so he better be able to do quite a bit on his own. I'm actually agreeing with the idea that you need multiple stars, I'm pointing out that a team trading for Chris Bosh would probably be giving up their ability to do that.
IMO the goal this off-season should be to add a better big that we could bring off the bench than Joel Anthony or Juwan Howard. I think the ability to spread the floor with Bosh helps us against the vast majority of the league. I would just like to have a better option against the few Hibbert types out there. Maybe Varnado has developed enough? That and we may have to supplement shooters if Miller/Battier/Allen are retiring. I haven't a clue whether any of them are done, but age and injury issues always make that a possibility. I'm not in the camp that believes Wade is done. I want him, Lebron and Bosh to have a quiet off-season where they rest a ton and come back as fresh as possible for the next run.
Tons of rumors this spring that Greg Oden was going to pick between the Cavs and Heat for next season. Not sure he is healthy, but that's a pretty incredible boom or bust option for the Heat.
Just to make a point. I was the one who originally brought up the Heat trading Bosh, but the whole point was the ridiculous narratives that spin out of control by the media. In other words I do not think this will or should happen, just throwing out the next "break up the Big 3" rumor I think will be everywhere.
