Bosh will be a Cavalier as long as he oks it, IMO..
The Cavs can give Toronto relief of an ugly contract, young prospect, and a proven role player.

John Hollinger thinks the proposed trade would be:
Bosh and Turk for Jamison, West, Powe, and Moon.
Saves Raptors 10 million and gets rid of Turks contract.
Interesting he doesn't think JJ or Andy are involved... That would be HUGE for the Cavs.

That is an interesting thought. Maybe they really don't care what they can get back as long as they can unload Turkoglu's contract?hoops23;412641 wrote:John Hollinger thinks the proposed trade would be:

Good lord. If true, where do we sign up for THAT trade? Bosh would obviously have to agree but dang!

so that would leave the cavs looking like this:
PG: Williams, Gibson, Telfair
SG: Parker
SF: James, Turkoglu, Green
PF: Bosh, JJ, Williams
C: Andy
if somehow they are able to add haywood, that team would really light it up. but as is (with hollinger's predicted trade) they are a lot nicer on paper than the gutted fish deal that was talk about yesterday.

Exactly.. That is an absolute steal for Bosh, I mean sure it saves Toronto money, gives them a BIG expiring contract in 2 seasons with Jamison and rids them of Hedo, but wow..
With hat said, I think it'll be hard for Bosh to turn down that extra year and all that money just because he doesn't want to REPORTEDLY play in a city.
Bosh isn't Kobe or LeBron.. The extra security is huge for him because this is most likely his last BIG payday.

You forgot Mike Miller @ SG
If we get LeBron and Bosh (or even just LeBron) it's likely Mike Miller comes here.

^^No tweets and almost 60,000 followers. It isn't a verified account, I'm not sure who announced it; but I wouldn't be surprised if it isn't him.

It is him...KNR is reporting it and it is listed on his website that is about to launch.
Also, how sad is it that I am following 11 people and I have ZERO followers???lol...loser

It is verified.. At least by his publicist.
Jemele Hil and Rachel Nichols both verified it to be him.. As did Brian Windhorst.

I'm sure it's him, why else would it be "news"??
It's funny though that he has always been very against social networking and all that, but now he's on Twitter. Won't be long til he's on the Book and everywhere else.

wow, getting Bosh and Turk for Jamison who is close to the back end of his career, West who is about two minutes from wearing clown makeup while playing a banjo and being surrounded by guns and the other two are just fillers. Chris Grant would be raping the Raptors on that one.

Maybe it's a Tupac/Elvis thing and she isn't really dead. Maybe it was just a cramp and not carpal tunnel?

At least 1. More than likely in the 7-10 range.
