Miami already second guessing the Bosh signing?

[mahonedog88]

I was just talking with a friend of mine...I don't know if this can be confirmed anywhere, they said they heard it on the radio.

But he was saying that "he heard" that Miami is already very disappointed in the play of Chris Bosh, that he's nowhere near performing how he was expected to be a part of a "big 3".  And that already the front office is sorta putting a deadline on Bosh's play or else they're prepared to move on, and that Anderson Varejao is name being floated out there, that they think he would be a better fit for that team.

Now keep in mind, I have NO idea if this is true or not, but honestly, I can see it.  So many people predicted this, that this season would show that Bosh is quite overrated as a player and that all those years in Toronto was more of a best player on a bad team sorta thing.

Regardless though, if this is true, talk about an overreaction from Miami.  All this and they're what? 6-2?  Give it 20 games before you even think about considering trading what you thought was going to be a huge piece to the championship puzzle

If I had a dollar for all the rumors started by friends who 'heard' something on the radio. Pure speculation even if they did  hear something like it on the radio

Even if it's true, what team is stupid enough to take on his 114 mil now that he's been exposed as an overpaid bust?

An overpaid bust? We can make that determination in two weeks.

Shade of an overreaction there.

You don't sign a guy to a six year deal if you're going to panic 8 games into the first year.

I'll also add Bosh by definition can't be a bust. Recruiting him was key to convincing Wade to stay and also getting LeBron to sign.

Unless signing LeBron/Wade can be considered a bust....

For ticket sales - obviously not.

For winning titles? More likely than not!

Co-sign.

Its waaaaay too early to make a call on this.

I always tought of Bosh as a talented player on a bad team, and I didn't like his game 'cause he is a big man that shots the ball all the time. Big men are big for a reason, shure if you are able and wide open(ala KG) take the shot, but your primary objective is to cause havoc downlow, let the PG SG and SF take care of taking jumpshots.
Miami won't win nothing this year, not with healthy(?) Celtics and Lakers( )

How is his performance in Miami relevant to his value to a less talented team?

It is possible that he isn't a good fit with the other 2. But he still has the skill set that made him an all star in Toronto. His performance in Toronto is without a doubt worth his below max contract, even if it turns out to not be a match in Miami.

Rumors.

You mean the skill set that made them a .500 team at best?

That the Celtics swept every year?

[JSD]

It's too early to consider him a bust. At his pay rate he'll probably be economical to trade even after the new CBA. No matter what they won't regret signing him.

Miami isn't.  The media is.  Big difference. 

Miami's got these guys for 6 years, they're not gonna panic after 3 weeks.  Especially not with a 7-2 record (soon).

Milsap just scored 46 points on Bosh.

I'm officially taking credit for jinxing Miami, cause they were up 20 when I wrote that. 

Now of course they'll be trading Bosh tomorrow for Varejao and Jawad Williams.
