Lots of chatter that NY and Stoudemire are working on something. Interesting, as many of the tier 2 free agents are off the table or close to it: If Stoudemire goes to New York, Boozer goes to Orlando in the rumoured sign and trade, Johnson resigns with Atlanta, Pierce to Boston and Nowitzki looks pretty certain to go back to Dallas or Pheonix... all the sudden options are starting to look pretty slim for Miami, Chicago, and New Jersey.
Also, rumours are that Miami isn't very fond of Bosh's attitude. Apparently he's got a camera crew following him around and is making a documentary of his free agent experience. Rumours are that Miami doesn't think he's deserving of the max because he isn't as serious about winning.
Also, a lot of the early chatter about Bosh seems to be about Houston, even though they're a bit of a longshot to sign him. Still the best case scenario for the Raps (other than LA, who's been so quiet you have to assume they're not interested in Bosh).

How hilarious would it be if Bosh goes to Houston, Lebron goes to Cleveland, Chicago, or New Jersey, and Miami is stuck with Wade, Beasley, and a roster that they need to cobble together from the third tier of free agents? To me, it would be very hilarious indeed.
