I would like that idea. We'd get the all star we wanted without losing anything. Could trade Randle for a pick to create room for Bosh. Bosh was Pelinka's former client too :0

Hold on a second....doesn't Bosh have a totally jacked up ticker? I don't mean to make light of it...but I mean, can the guy play?

Seems awfully careless of us to get rid of Randle for a guy who may not get to play much with us...if at all.

Bosh takes blood thinners to prevent clotting and it would be very risky to play basketball on them. There's a reason the heat wanted no part of it and it'd be careless of us to take in that risk.

No, he has to retire.

He already have millions of dollars. He might die out there playing.

Just retire and enjoy life dude.

If he came on the cheap yeah sure. But why would he come here instead of going to Cleveland (help old m8 Lebron) or the Warriors (to screw old m8 Lebron).

Its a risky strategy to use blood thinners, but look, if he's managed well enough and plays like 20MPG, i'm sure he could make a major impact.

Can we trade one of our bad contracts and a Chicago 2nd for him?

Bosh can then agree to retire/buyout with us.

Bosh would still likely play at a high level, but his blood clot issue is worrying. The guy should retire. He's already accomplished a lot in the league.

He can still be a starter in this league. A starter with championship pedigree. So yeah I'd want him.

But for the obvious health reasons, I hope he stays away from sports competition. He seems like a great guy and it would be terrible to see him risk his life for 'love of the game'.

If his health is an absolute non issue at this point then Bosh would be the perfect 5 for this team. He wouldn't hurt any of the youth. He'd actually enhance the young guys unlike Deng and Mozgov. Not sure how anyone could say otherwise.

Bosh is a leader and a spokesperson for the game and sportsmanship and is a smart player. Even if he were to only play in a couple of dozen games, it would be a tremendous experience for the rest of the team that will be beneficial.

Someone should enlight Bosh on the life and DEATH of Reggie Lewis.

He needs to retire enjoy his rings and his millions and lead a long and happy life, not be stubborn and die on a basketball court.

I wouldn't take this guy. He is washed up and he can't stay healthy for a couple of games to save his life.

Pass.

Not a chance that it happens, he's on blood thinners which is never good and secondly he has to fly for a living way more than the average person.
