Toronto is gonna losing that game today against chicago. I know! thats and easy one considering they are down by 20 right now and is 4 quarter. My real prediction is that since toronto is not making the playoff this year Cris Bosh is not going to return and will end up in new york. ok, more coming soon.

Bosh was never going to stay in Toronto unless DeMar Derozan turned out to be the next Vince Carter.

I'm not so sure he'll go to NY, though.  A lot depends on what LeBron ends up doing.  Jersey could be a much better situation for Bosh if they manage to draft Wall or Turner.  Chicago and Miami are other possibilities.

New York? Heh, tonight's loss to the Bulls might be that more tragic for the Raptors seeing that the city of Toronto lays claim to one of the most dubious honors in NBA basketball - the first ever NBA team to lose a game, ie. the first NBA game was played between the Toronto Huskies and the New York Knicks, in Toronto.

In retrospect tonight's loss might even be worse if the Raptors end up trading Bosh for un-equal value in return because they would then be creating a habit of trading away their franchise player. There was a time where Vince Carter actually demanded to be traded from the Raptors at one point due to his dissatisfaction with the team so losing Bosh would be devastating for them, especially after how this season may likely end - with the Bulls ousting them from the 8th seed.

Toronto has one big problem - they're capped out with overpaid guys who don't play D. If the team was decent, seems like Bosh would stay. He loves the city.

What if New Jersey gets Turner?
Harris
Lee
Turner
Bosh
Lopez is pretty good.

bosh and lopez is a heck of a front court

could be the only dual 20-10 front court in the league

What if New Jersey gets Turner?
Harris
Lee
Turner
Bosh
Lopez is pretty good.

I think Terrence Williams would start at SF and Turner would start at SG; T-Will has been very good towards the end of the season.

I think Bosh's destination has a lot to do with who does well in the draft and where Lebron and Wade go/stay.

If Wade stays in Miami, I'd say that's Bosh's likely destination.  Get them to sign a decent PG, keep Beasley at SF, O'neal at Center.  That's a good starting unit. 

If Lebron goes to NJ or Knicks, Bosh would probably take that as his second choice.  I figure that's the backup plan because Miami has players that are a little more established.

I too think Miami is Bosh's most likely destination.

I have Chicago as the second most likely spot with New York in third place. The Knicks can pass out the Bulls (on the Bosh race) if they convince another max contract free agent to join them first. I do not think Bosh will be the first to sign up for the Knicks and I do not think he'll even consider the Nets. If Bosh leaves the Raptors it'll be because of the lack of winning, he isn't going to join a lousy team without being sure that losing is firmly in the past.

The idea of Bosh and Wade playing alongside one another is fantastic. I hope it happens.
