Does anyone feel Bosh is going to leave.

I have a strong feeling that he will want to play for a Texas based team.
The Raptors better start getting another star player or hes likely gone.

I have a strong feeling that you have no idea what you're talking about.

Seriously, name the star players that have left their team via free agency.

So, who's going to win the 2010 federal election?

Brans · Post #6 » by **Brans** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 4:14 am

Dallas
Houston
San Antonio

Could all play to the championship with Chris Bosh. Money is not everything, championships are.

Bosh isn't going anywhere unless BC decides to trade him.

I don't see him just walking away though.

Only if he gets tired of playing under the shadow of Andrea Bargnani.

I would of been inclined to agree with there until I saw the CBC piece interview at halftime where he expressed how uneasy he was with toronto at first - - I still didn't get the impression that he felt Toronto was home. Bosh seems like a competitive guy and I see there being a slim chance that he would walk away from Toronto if a better situation appeared. Never Say Never I mean after Vince Carter and all his pals (Alvin, JYD, Antonio Davis) were locked up you had to figure he was a raptor for life and look how quickly things changed. I'm Not saying Bosh will leave, I'm just not 100% sure he will stay a raptor.

If he leaves, meh whatever. There is always a next star waiting in the shadows. There are potential stars coming out of college every year. I am not worried at all, to me he isn't a go to guy anyways.

Cause they have the money to sign him. Unless Bosh feels like signing at the MLE.

I've also read Bosh say that he DOESN'T want to play in Dallas. He said nothing about Houston or San Antonio though, but his reasoning for not wanting to play in Dallas was because it's "home". This was on his website.

First of all I believe you were the OP in a similar thread started a few days ago so maybe you should either 1.) start coming up with more original ideas or 2.) stop posting rubbish on here.

To humor you and answer your ridiculous question, the whole Vince Carter fiasco has desensatized me to pro athletes. I was heartbroken when Vince quit on this team and eventually was basically given away to the New Jersey Nets. As a fan who paid a lot of money to go and watch him play in person it bothered me that he could just simply pack it in and quit on a fanbase that embraced him and made him one of Toronto's most loved athletes of all time.

If Bosh were to follow in his footsteps (which I highly doubt based on his solid character shown to date) and would want out of Toronto then good riddance to him. This franchise bounced back after one star player bolted on the team, if CB4 wanted to do the same thing I know that the Raps would struggle initially but life would move on and the team would rebuild.

If there's one thing the VC saga taught me, it's to never get attached to pro athletes. At the end of the day pro sports is a business, and like in all businesses people get greedy. I have a lot of respect and faith in CB4 and I think that he does seem to be one of the good guys in this industry. If he were to one day leave the team I would hope that it would be on a good note and not the way that VC left. Bottom line is players come and go. You can't spend your whole life worrying about how long Bosh or any other guy for that matter will be here in Toronto.

He may leave, who knows? Remember Carter, Stoudamire, TMAC have all left the Franchise. It is nothing new. Maybe the Raps will get Bargs as the first white guy as the franchise player. As well, if CB4 left that would be a real blow to this team. I will never watch this team again. There is something real powerful that Bosh has that nobody on the Raptors have. He is the LAST REMAINING PLAYER ON THE RAPTORS TO PLAY WITH VINCE CARTER!
