Bosh to Miami Rumour Thread (Update pg 44)

Steven A Smith doesnt know anything. Hes just a nobody from yesteryear.

Now this guy releasing this info and then finding an excuse such as "I made it up" is definitely something that doesnt make sense and is worth looking into.

people who break news rarely admit it was made up or fake. that's definitely fishy

I'll take the assets of Beasley and TPE and keep Chalmers around for back up when hopefully Jose is moved.

Still the top story on thestar.com. Surprised The Doug hasn't conjured an update yet.

Its happening folks, i feel it... I figured Miami would be Bosh's destination... For anyone not liking Beasley or what we're getting in this deal... face it, we wouldn't get anything close from any other teams... Beasley is talented and has upside, and is still young... Young Gunz get a new member...

There remains the issue of who internally polices their antics. Jack? Too likely to hang w/ them as an older brother type. Triano? Marshmallow man. Need a vet similar to Willis, Kurt Thomas, etc. to keep matters in check.

Just take Beasley and the trade exception. The other two guys are pretty useless. I remember when Bryan gave $2 mill to Maceo, which didn't seem like much but did take away from our cap space. All these small deals he takes on add up.

Maybe BC's trying to win a fantasy league?

Because PGs and PFs have always been the way to go for fantasy ball.

I think Bron end up in NY with JJ and Lee and Bosh knowing that only thinks joining Wade in Mia is the only way to compete....but Chi is a close second option but loses out in the end

we should have a sticky thread for Free Agent Stupidness 2010

The Doug Smith is waiting for tomorrows info so he can claim he already knew it all along.

agreed. unfortunately alot of the good vets will go to miami/wherever lebron goes. well need to get the jke voshkul type guy who unfortunately wont command much respect from the younger guys. joe smith? michael finley? ben wallace? earl watson? kurt thomas? stackhouse? battie? etan thomas? juwan howard? youre gonna hafta take the scraps leftover from contenders and hope you find a guy thatll sit on the bench as a vet because they dont want to let go yet. gonna be a tough find. would be easier if we just had a coach who could command the respect

I'll be extremely disappointed if the Bosh situation doesn't get done within the next two days.

They tell me that LeBron is controlling everything...I really hope he doesn't drag this ish any further.

People say it's between Chicago or Cleveland, but I think LeBron is going to give New York every chance at signing him.

49 pages.

The way he said it's fake pretty well tells me it's real. What makes sense is he can't give away his sources too much. And keep in mind we have reports of other GM's thinking Miami is the place, but also we did hear from Stephen A Smith that Miami was a done deal for Bosh.

so when do we anticipate that his media outlet will have his balls under the guillotine?

From Doug Smith’s Raptors blog: The reported deal runs counter to what I’ve heard as the Raptors’ opinion of Mike Beasley for months. But, as we know, strange things can happen this time of year; things aren’t done until they’re done; and one move may just be something to set up another.

LOL, Doug Smith at his best.

It could possibly happen, but it might not happen.

update to Doug's earlier story:

It’s not as if the fate of the Raptors franchise as a whole is in the balance as Chris Bosh decides where he’d like to play starting next season.

It just feels like it.

This crap will go on for another week as teams can't sign anyone until July 8.

In regards to this whole trade rumour, I'm sticking to my original stand. I don't want anything to do with Michael Beasley. The Raptors already have a core player who has motivational issues in Bargnani. Michael Beasley might just be worse than Bargnani is this area. With someone like Jay Triano as the head coach, this is just going to be a disaster by picking up more lazy ass players who doesn't have any heart.

No thanks Miami. Trade exception and picks are just fine.

How would you feel about this return?
