Heat must trade for Bosh

by Heatmeister on Jun 15, 2009 5:27 AM EDT

The most effective way to win a title, with the exception of landing a top pick, is by complementing a conference semifinals or even conference finals worthy team with a big man star on a falling team.

It worked with Detroit (Rasheed Wallace), it worked with Miami (Shaq), it worked with Boston (KG and Allen), and it worked with LA (Gasol).

Who can be such a talent on a falling team for the Heat? Bosh and only Bosh.

Just look at the options, none of the following teams have a sidekick for Wade that can deliver the Heat a championship other than Bosh:
Indiana, Charlotte, New Jersey, Milwaukee, New York, Washington , Phoenix (Stoudamire too injury prone), Golden State, Minnesota (because Jefferson isn't going anywhere), Memphis, OKC, Clippers (although Kaman would be a nice complement), and Sacramento.

Even if you look at playoff worthy team there isn't a plethora of tradeable talent that will win us a championship available.

The truth is, the Heat need Bosh. We can always replace Beasley, but the Heat need Bosh. Wade will not win a championship with any other possible current NBA player the Heat could trade for, with the exception of Amare if he's healthy, other than Bosh.

I agree that Bosh would be a good fit

but why trade Beasley for Bosh now when we can get Bosh for nobody next summer?
Can you explain why you think Bosh is a better fit for Miami then any other player they could bring in…thats the only thing missing from your post. Thanks, good stuff!

Bosh is not a guaranteed sign in free agency

nor is it a guarantee that Wade will even stay. Plus, Bosh can receive more money via S&T than signing outright as a FA.

I don't care how...

but I agree… We need Bosh. Trade for him, wait till he is a FA, or whatever.
Wade needs a solid center and Jermaine with his $23 million salary is garbage.

it depends...sometimes teams are looking to dump salary

and will take the young guy with the lower salary against the big salary with an unfavorable contract. It’s all about situations my friend

obviously...

the trade is NOT solely Bosh for Beasley, idiot!
The Raptors just want to make sure Beasley is included in the trade and the Heat are saying he is off limits. We would for sure give up more than Beasley, but Bosh isn’t leaving Toronto unless Beasley is a PART of the deal. Use your head now…
