Chris Bosh, after talking with LeBron James this past weekend, is seriously considering the Houston Rockets' maximum contract offer of four years, $96 million, according to sources close to the situation.

To early to say if Heat are imploding. There are a bunch of balls up in the air with a bunch of FAs and a bunch of teams. Honestly, the most likely scenario with all of these teams and FAs are just that the FA resigns with his current team (sorry Cleveland and Houston).

I'm curious what happens to Wade if LeBron goes to Cleveland and Bosh goes to Houston.

I hate the Heat, so I'm glad to see them broken up.

I'd hate to see Bosh go to Houston. Another team that will misuse him.

Bosh needs to play with an inside-outside threat or solely a perimeter threat but not someone who is solely an interior player like Dwight Howard is. Bosh will not have a large impact in Houston because Bosh and Dwight are not good for one another. Still, a good addition who will improve their team but not the star level impact Houston will be hoping for.

I'd love to see Bosh in Houston. That would be a tough trio down there.

This would be awesome let Wade rot away through a long rebuild

Yeah he'd continue to be a perimeter guy who doesn't use a the part of his game that made him an all-star in Toronto.

Isn't Bosh way closer to Dwight than Lebron or Wade?

Who would be a good compliment to Bosh?

Yessss!!!!
Want to see the cHeat dismantled - notice how I didn't say Big 3. The Big 3, in this generation is referred to as - Pierce, KG, and #20. Not- LB, Wade and Bosh.

Power forwards. Bosh works very well as C alongside almost all PFs. The ones with more quickness and skill the better.

If must have a center alongside Bosh, then an inside-outside one like Marc Gasol or Tim Duncan. Or a PF/C like Garnett, Pau Gasol, Aldridge. Lesser option again is a more limited scorer but good high post passer like Joakim Noah.

Worst options are ones that hang around in the paint all game long and turn Bosh strictly into a jump-shooter (as he has become over last few years in Miami). Also troubling are slow footed players that decrease team speed but that isn't an issue with Dwight. Say a Roy Hibbert type.

On First Take today, Stephan A. Smith said Bosh going to Houston would open the door and real possibility of Carmelo going to Miami. Bosh going to Houston increases the likelihood of Lebron staying in Miami.
