Will he stay in Toronto, where there's little chance of ever getting a legitimate shot at a title, or will he bounce somewhere else for slightly less money?

well he will be restricted, so he'd have to force a trade. could that happen? i dont think so

i think this is a similar situation to lebron except toronto is a year behind cleveland. they have the beginnings of a supporting cast but they need to sign some ppl in free agency (after they trade jalen for anfernee). if they do a decent job of it. bosh stays. if not. bosh will be heading south.

if he leaves he could win a championship quickly but if he stays he would become the centre piece of a franchise who look to be in good stead for the future, so id say if he puts up with a couple more losing seasons guys like joey graham, jose calderon and all the other young guys should mould around him

He'll force a trade.

He'll bolt, because he maintains everything depends on the Raptors getting better on the court. Whether it's plus .500 or reaching the .500 mark, but I don't see their youngsters getting that much better in such a short time. Maybe if they get lucky in free agency, but I doubt they become a sub-par team.

i dont think the "youngsters" are the problem on that team. besides bosh, Villanueva is having a comparible rookie season to bosh (perhaps with a slight edge). they have a rookie pg who is averaging 6 assists a game, another rookie who is gradually getting more and more playing time in graham.

there biggest problem is
jalen rose --- 16mil , 10-3-2
alvin williams ---7mil for next 3yrs, 1pt all season
lamond murray--- 5.2mil and he plays for the nets
ZO ---- 4.1mil for a few more years, again he plays for another team.
eric williams - 4mil , 3pts 1 rebound and 1 assist all season.

thats alot of money going to waste

If he was smart he will bolt because that franchise sucks they are in semise you could tell because they traded Vince for basically nothing in the future they have no chances of winning come on to the states CB4 where you could make a lot more money.

Go somewhere else

Huh? This is not like Lebron's situation at all. Cleveland is a playoff team. Bosh originally said he'll stay if the Raptors show signs of improvement, so this will go down to the last few games of the year. If they manage a winning streak near the end of the season, that would be signs o improvement. Right now there's no telling where he'll go. Simply put, if the Raptors end the season on losing streak, Bosh is gone.

I think he will leave.... but they just put too much pressure on him... i mean , i live in Canada... and the media always puts him on the spot.. will you stay.. you have a contract soon... and he keeps repeating the same answer.... because obviously.. he doesn't want to be the second most hated Player ( after vince) in Toronto... and his answer is always... if we start winning... i'll stay.... now with their record... what does that tell u?

**qross1fan** · 12-28-2005, 10:44 PM

He'll sign with Maccabi Tel Aviv

**superdude211** · 12-28-2005, 10:47 PM

Bosh is going nowhere, i'll bet anything that CB4 will be in T.O for years to come

i really hate criticism especially when it stems from ur ignorance. first of all let me have a go at you for ur own ineptness. why does it matter if toronto finishes on a losing when bosh's contract ends in 06-07; 4 yr guaranteed contract for all first rounders, he is in his 3rd year. and then to the point u started ur post with. what part of " is a year behind cleveland" didn't u grasp. u said cleveland was a playoff team, but they weren't last year. they went and signed all those free agents, which is why i said toronto needs to get a better supporting cast. then i gave examples of how they could do so by freeing up CAP space.

b4 everyone starts saying "sheesh buddy calm down". this guy criticized me, when i had a perfectly valid point, and my points actually said some continuity with the real world. unlike his haemoraging drivel about bosh's contract situation. if u are going to criticize someone, be accurate, otherwise u just look like a fool
