When all said and done the Rockets maybe a worse team since the season ended and whose gm worked his butt the hardest trying to be the "smartest" one in the L. And what of Bosh...he really must not like Houston...this is the second time he has stiffed them (the first when he was holding hands with Morey when he left the Raptors). Wonder what Morey has cost the Rockets in asset value in all the moves. Houston is actually not a very nice city to hang out in...fairly sterile and humid as hell.

As someone who lives in Miami and has been to Houston, there is no competition. Miami blows it out of the fucking water.
I was a freshman at Georgia Tech at the same time Bosh was, and remember riding around on the bus with him. So I've always been a huge fan. I was ecstatic when the Raptors drafted him, and distraught after the way he left. Glad I can finally start rooting for him in earnest again. The Heat is his team now.

Not saying I don't understand his decision, but personally, if I were him, I'd go to Houston and play to win. Though he does have a stupidly expensive house even for an NBAer and maybe he really needs that extra year of max money to not go broke.

ps..he does have personal qualities though that may make him an interesting person...he reads, interested in IT, travels and inetrested in languages and the arts. Ironically all areas of interest personally. So this is paradoxical.

Wonder what Kobe thinks of the contract. Its all Lebron's fault...he held up the f/a process and once he dropped the bomb the gms were so astonished & excited & frightened at the prospect of being left out of the acquisition frenzy there was a stampede to the signing table. I am sure there were bidding wars behind the scenes we dont hear about that led to these numbers....or pretty smart agents.
