mmm i remember something similar about Amare, something like injury prone and that will never recover from that knee injury etc.. i'm pretty skeptical with this kind of rumors. For sure, if we'll land bosh this off season i will not be disappointed. :)

This is BC's plan to turn away any interested parties and he can keep Bosh :lol:

I would not buy any of that crap. Especially if it's coming from those 'characters' on the Raptors board.

2 threads on it, both deleted because the OP wanted them removed, which is typically what you do when you want to protect a source.

So yeah, it definitely smells fishy.

I believe it...

He's too young to be wearing that humongous knee brace, but with the right diet of omega-3 fish oils :lol: and training he could presumably prevent the worse from happening



But that knee brace foreshadows nightmares.

Get an independent medical done, go through historical records, it should all be there and I'm sure as part of the insurance process everything has to be documented.

If it's true or not, a medical should prove everything.
There is no consolation prize. Winning is everything.

I'm not worried about this, you don't just sign a guy without checking all of this out first. If it really is that much of an issue and turns out to be true, they'll pick it up in his medical examination that's done in Miami and pursue someone else like Amare.

Acer's been continuing the discussion in this thread if y'all interested:

http://raptorsrepublic.com/forums/showt ... 738&page=4

I agree this seems more legit than the typical fake insider crap. This paragraph intrigued me

One thing I want to make clear, because this is important: It was the Raptors who told CB right after the Memphis game that they wouldn't be offering him a max contract. CB was on the fence on whether to stay or go, but after that conversation they both agreed to get max value for him somewhere else.


This would also explain why it felt like Bosh checked out after that injury. Combination of BC spurning him contract wise and wanting to make sure his knee holds up... I never bought he'd just quit on a team in a playoff hunt solely because he wanted out, Bosh has always been a high character professional and ego wise, these guys want to make the playoffs. But he definitely went into jumpshot only mode the last couple months...

Medicals guys.

I love the way the toronto fans are jumping on this one as gospel.
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders

+1. There'll be enough medicals, especially after these rumors are out. Riley is smart enough to not waste this big shot on a player who won't be able to play at his best in the playoffs.

This story is fabricated. The user will be disciplined for spreading false rumors. Lock if you'd like, Miami mods...

Brooklyn, if you don't mind could we get an explanation as to how it was proven to be false?

Was hoping for a little more proof than that.

All we have now is your word vs. his. That's the reason I asked for some more information.
