Raptors' Bosh could be headed to Golden State

By Mark Miller

“ChrisToronto Raptors forward Chris Bosh(notes) is always mentioned as part of the four-headed soon-to-be-free-agent monster that will hit the NBA next summer. The other three heads, of course, belong to LeBron James(notes), Dwyane Wade(notes), and Amare' Stoudemire. The general consensus is that James and Wade will end up back on the Cleveland Cavaliers and Miami Heat, respectively. But Bosh and Stoudemire? Who knows?

Well, word is coming now that Bosh could be traded soon enough to the Golden State Warriors to play out this season before free agency. The Toronto Sun is reporting that four-time All-Star Bosh could be moving to California in exchange for Andris Biedrins(notes) and others.

Of course that doesn't mean Bosh won't be looking elsewhere once next summer rolls around.

    being a warriors fan - i would applaud the move.. however, Bosh will definitely leave as a FA next year leaving us without a center....

    For one, why is there a picture of Pau Gasol? And two...
    $14M for Bosh, a 20-10 big, who can keep the GSW in games. VS.
    $9M for Biedrins a 12-10 big, who... takes up space? I don't watch enough GSW since Davis left.
    plus some pieces... umm, i know this would be as lopsided as the Gasol to Lakers trade, but
    Anthony Morrow +
    Anthony Randolph +
    Brandan Wright makes the salaries fit.... lol
    So what are the thoughts of Golden State fans on Biedrins, is he athletic enough for your system? Do you think Bosh doesn't have enough meat on him to play with the Western bigs (even though their average size dropped like a gazillion pounds when Shaq went East...) and I have always seen Bosh as frail, what do you think?
    Plus Curry came from out here so I am curious how he is doing? Is he getting pushed around alot?

    Oh yeah, plus Bosh is a big ole' Expiring, so if the Warriors just want to dump him at the end of the season they can.
    Plus I have a feeling Bosh will want to go back East after playing in the West if this trade happens.

    Yes and the Sky is falling. Look at last GSW & Raptors trade Toronto got Bellini look at his pre season numbers what did GSW get somone who would have been 15th player and only because of contract on the Raptors bench.
    Bosh isn't going anywhere he has bulked up and will be vast improvement over his usual 20 & 10.
    Plus the Raptors have likely the deepest squad in current NBA. They will likely finish 4or 5th in the East with the slim possibility if injuries in Boston, Shaq exploding a top 3.
    Dream on Colangelo isn't a dumb ass GM.

    bosh is so overrated.
    the man is so soft that he makes kevin garnett and tim duncan look like thugs.
    he's rebounding total is unimpressive for someone his size, his defense mediocre, and his block total underwhelming.
    with 4 consecutive seasons with almost identical stats, he has already reached his ceiling.

    he's barely better than zach randolph.
    both are losers who put up decent stats, except randolph is a smaller guy who is a fierce rebounder while bosh is soft on the glass and bosh blocks a few more shots cuz he's taller (still a paltry total for someone his size)
    he's just overrated cuz he plays for the only canadian team and all the other guys are role players (and yes i'm not buying into the turkoglu hype)

    An article about Bosh, Biedrins, Wade, Amare, and Lebron. So why the hell is Pau Gasol pictured by the side? Ok guys, I think just confirms the credibility of this article......

    I'm not gonna say Bosh is a product of a watered down eastern conference with no PFs to match excluding KG.
    But, I think he'd be better served palying the East. If he goes out West Duncan, Gasol, Dirk, etc will make his life horrible.

    Ha ha this is HILARIOUS... Don't get your hopes up Warriors fans, The Toronto Sun is basically a tabloid paper, the third page of every paper is a huge spread of a girl in underwear or a bikini called today's 'Sunshine Girl".
    I can't believe this Mark Miller guy is using that paper as a source, what a joke. These guys just write whatever they want.
    Why the hell would anyone trade Chris Bosh for Biedrins??? Hahahahaha.... The Raps are totally revamped and going for the playoffs to try to convince Bosh to stay. Biedrens??? Mr. Miller, how about using legitimate sources for your articles, and don't get these Golden State fans' hope up.

    Oh, and PS, from today's Toronto Sun:
    SUNshine Girl Jenny is 24 years old and hopes to run her own business, preferably a restaurant. Our girl has a dog named Gucci and loves to draw and paint in her spare time. When Jenny is not working at one of her three jobs, she is likely spending time with her niece.
    Nice source! ahahaha....

    How these writers for yahoo don't get fired is beyond me. Whether or not this is a true rumor, to put a picture of the wrong player is just asinine. They clearly don't even care what gets posted on this website.
    As far as the rumor, and being a GSW fan I think giving up Biedrins & others is too much for 1 year. Although I would gladly part with Stephen Jackson & Monta Elllis for Bosh.

    hahaha, the Toronto Sun. The Toronto Sun is the least credible paper in Toronto. It uses sex to sell and is written so elementary school kids and 40 yr old single parent drunks can understand it.
    Note to yahoo writers, don't believe a word from the Toronto Sun. My high school newspaper was a better a source than the Sun..hah

    Bosh for Gasol would take the Lakers back to the days before they got Gasol. No playoffs, then back to back 1st round playoff losses to the Suns. Gasol in Toronto would make Toronto at least a 4 seed, with a chance to advance in the playoffs. Then the Raps could sign Nowitzki next season. That would make Toronto the "Beast of The East"

    looks like Biedrins + Jackson for Bosh and Douby works both ways...
    starting 5 of...
    GWS
    Curry
    Ellis
    Maggette
    Randolph
    Bosh
    TORONTO
    Calderon
    Jackson
    Turkoglu
    Bargnani
    Biedrins
    im a warriors fan and i like the trade. first off with or without jackson and biedrins..we're not going to win the championship let alone make the playoffs in a stacked west conf...two..this gives the warriors cap space to go after a big name if bosh is to opt out. a lot of big names in free agency. might as well start over since jax ask to leave..ship him to Canada. they get universal health care anyway.
