Does Bosh not have a trade clause in his contract? Why would he want to get traded to a team with as bleak a future as Toronto.

fuck that pussy bitch bosh

[TheMACHINE]

who is riley gonna trade...any expiring contracts in Miami?

[Giuseppe]

They'd never give up Bosh, but, it's still a sensible idea by Miami. Probably would just take bupkis.

hahah if Haslem gets traded, thats some fucked up shit. Homie took a paycut and gets traded. :lmao

[mavsfan1000]

lol Heat. Already talking about trades.

[Giuseppe]

They'd regret parting with Haslem. After Wade he's the only one not afraid of his shadow.

But, why would Denver want Miller. He's got a fork in him and his contract is long & distinguished.

Bosh did not qualify for a no-trade clause in his contract under the current CBA. Looking at the Heat's roster and Billups $13.5 million dollar salary it would seems that the Heat would have to trade Bosh in order to make this work. If you try to package Miller, Haslem and Anthony to get salaries in line that would leave the Heat with less bench than they have now. You would almost be forced to bring either LeBron or Wade off the bench...yeah, right. Wouldn't that be perfect, Bosh wouldn't sign with a small market team like Cleveland and he ends up in Denver.:lol

I can't imagine Bosh's facial expression upon hearing news that he's going to be traded.

[TheMACHINE]

this team is hopeless...unless they make some crazy ass Kwame Brown trade, they'll always be stuck with atleast one crappy starter and a bench of d-leaguers.

[Giuseppe]

Hey, Vent, you want to do an ELE bet on Bosh getting traded? You'd have to give up Venti but you could go back to being that other asshole you were before.

" Chris, we are trading you for Jose Calderon and a bag of pucks"

Stephen A Smith : There are no rumors. I said The Heat should go after him, that's all.

did he say why also?

rofl if the heat trade for a pg with lebron and wade on their team..

[MiamiHeat]

The only thing Riley is considering is grabbing another 3pt shooting PG and obviously grabbing a Center.

[DeadlyDynasty]

I feel bad for the Heat...it's only November but the unrealistic expectations that their fans and the national media put on them is creating too much pressure. Bosh isn't used to any kind of media coverage so he just doesn't know how to act, while James is notorious for wilting in the limelight. Look for Wade to guide this team through their rough start, he's the only one with the sac to do it.

[JamStone]

If the Heat really are trying to get Billups, it's a desperate panic move imo. Billups is 34 years old, can't guard a chair, and he's shooting 34% from the field and 29% from three point range playing in an offense that already gives him plenty of open looks. He is still pretty solid when it comes to tempo control, but the Heat don't want to slow it down anyway and the ball is going to be in Wade's and LeBron's hands all the time anyway. With Chauncey's age leading to deterioration of his game, the only true positive he brings is leadership. Are the Heat in that much of a mess that they'll bring in a bad older player just for that? Maybe...

Apparently you don't realize that Bosh staying in Miami is a GOOD thing for the rest of the league.

Like Billups and Nene?

thank fucking christ.

chauncey wants to finish his career in denver. front office should let him do so.

[sefant77]

Of course its fake, Billups has a a 13 million contract and the Heat got nothing to fill that kind of salary. They wont trade Haslem after him taking less money and Miller/Anthony got long sucking contracts and they arent that good either.

The rest are minimum guys, they wanna pack 5-6 of them together?
