Before someone else does, I believe that trading for Bosh this summer is a solid move for the Knicks.
We need a star. A tall one. That plays at least semi-high level D.
I've been crapping on & on about Bosh coming here since I heard that he's not loving the Raps. Border issues, management clashes & the want to be a ★STAR★ in a city where it actually holds some meaning.
He's not that shot blocker/changer we need, but seriously, we need someone to hand the ball to who'll be reliable with it. He can play D from the baseline to the tip of the arc & has good footwork & lateral movement at near 7 feet.
He has a reliable mid to sometimes long range jump shot & can be baffling for opponents as a lefty.
The question of having Wade or James eventually donning the orange and blue is going out on a very shaky-breaky limb.
We need a star, Bosh can be that star. In my humble opinion.
He's had an off season through being disgruntled and having niggling injuries, but as I've said in the past "He'd be an awesome fit for Mike D's system"
This was the best trade I could figure out with Lee's upcoming sign & trade in the off-season.

Chris Bosh, good call? Bad call? I say good.
