Really, cause I really wouldn't give a ****. RealGM Heat Board is -easily- the worst collection of Heat posters I have ever seen. Ya'll are mostly unknowledgeable and very young. For every good poster like Rex and Gametime3, there's a bunch of HIF's, LikeaBosh's and Shanedude's.

InsideHoops and official Heat forums actually don't think it's so far fetched to move on from Chris Bosh.

Ya'll can have your circle jerk together. Bunch of middle school and high school kids acting like they know anything on the internet.


ANYWAY -------

The Heat's Jordan and Pippen.. Lebron and Wade...... need a defensive rebounding goon. Chris Bosh is a 17 million dollar liability.


Who would you replace Bosh with? A true center, does that even exist? We would need more perimeter shooting.

I think we are doing well, 3 str8t Final appearances.
What about the locker room chemistry? Heat are like family you can't take Bosh out like that, we is playing out position, not getting touches.
You no how hard it is to game plan for the team.
Bosh is the secret sauce. No one sees it. Whenever you need a bucket, outside Lebron or Wade Bosh will get you buckets on the house. I know everyone is gearing up to take it two us. Pound the paint, what you thought they want to be made like chomps while Lebron Wade n Bosh 3peat?

All other teams need to step up for the Champs.
The Champs need to improve and position themselves.
I think Pat Riley knows how to position with both short and long sights.

To elaborate why Bosh works so well. Lebron is slasher with point guard skills, Wade is a slasher also. Wade and Lebron need space to operate within the lanes and under 12 and to finsh at the rim. Bosh helps spacing with his great mid range shooting and is outstanding help defensive on the rotations . If we had a solid Big ( 7 footer atleast 260lb) that would not be a liability on defensive rotations, good offensive rebounding and post defense to add to the starting line up literally it would be a dream team. But we do not live in a perfect world.


Exactly!!!! Not to mention someone like Aisk would be a liability at the end of game because he is a terrible FT shooter.

I'll say this, very rarely does something get out and if it does, its because they want it too. This is for all sports, you think those "Insiders" don't go stright to the horses mouth in return for possitive relationships? I'll also so that those, that keeps the most secrets, generally are told more. Have I heard anything in sports? Yes but rarely if ever have I ever said a word as I ask why? If anything nothing feels better than hearing somethign and then hearing the so called "Expert" or somene claim to know something when you are certain they are wrong. hahahah

Wasn't his source his mom who works as an accountant or another financial type position?

I remember Shaq Diesel from basketballboards.net and he had good insider info now and again.

His source was his mom?

I don't know if his relationship to her was sibling-parent, but that person had a close relationship with Wade (no not that kind of relationship).

Me too and I'm starting to get a little annoyed. If it takes you this long to decide whether to play with our team or not, well I don't really want you then.

Yeah it's one thing if LeBron pulls this, but it comes off as more annoying if an unproven guy is doing it....but our options are limited as it is. Nothing we can do about it.

ODEN WATCH 2013

Through my Twitter sleuth work I have established Greg Oden is in Los Angeles. He was spotted at a sports agency building. Apparently Mark Cuban was later seen there as well, though I wouldn't look too far into that.

He hasn't played in an NBA game in almost four years. He's had five surgeries on his knees, including three dreaded microfracture procedures. He's not in great shape, and he's not even playing five-on-five, at least publicly.


The chances of him being a complete bust are just as great as him signing with the HEAT. I take solace in that.

Well that makes since because apparently Dallas is going to give Oden a formal offer this week.

Don't be so entitled dude c'mon. It's a big decision for this guy's career and he's gonna take as much time as he needs to evaluate which is going to be the best situation for him. This isn't Samuel Dalembert stringing us along only to get cash, its a player who is probably genuinely conflicted about where to play.

He's choosing a team within the next 3 days, so every organization interested in him will make a formal offer this week.
