Report: Heat fear Chris Bosh's career is over

[NardVa]

Bosh always came off as a humble down to earth dude. I thought he caught some heat when he joined Lebron in Miami. No pun intended.

[Grits n' Gravy]

His long term health is far more important than playing for an average nba team. I'm sure Riley would like him to retire so heat can get out of contract and use space on acquiring a star or two to replace Wade.

He was a hell of a player in Toronto but got overshadowed by Lebron in Miami.

Heat will be fine

They got some good material

[existential]

old news, Heat have been encouraging Bosh to retire since last season

yes

Heat lost because Whiteside did not play

[LordVodka]

Better to live than to keep playing and possibly die.

I don't know??? If he would have gone for it and demanded to play near the end of this season, he may have propelled this Heat team to a championship run.. It's not like he was going to play for a full season.

How many people get a chance to do that in life? Small chance he could die, but a partial season probably means he won't.. He was playing with this crap for years..

Maybe now he should retire though.. Heat are done...

If this is his second blood clot, which I believe it is, then Bosh has bought himself LIFELONG anticoagulantion. Without treatment, he has greater than 20% chance of getting another clot leading to pulmonary embolism and death. With treatment, playing basketball for 80+ games means certain risk of traumatic fall leading to internal bleeding, which can go unnoticed before going into shock, or cerebral hemorrhage leading to stroke, seizure and death. Chris Bosh is finished with basketball. He would have to be a complete moron to not take the millions of dollars he has already earned and live his life as long as he can. If I were the heat's medical staff I wouldn't allow him anywhere near the court again and his family should not allow him to take that risk either.

His acting career is just starting. I saw him in a new promo movie with Arnold Palmer.

Both sides agree with this. Bosh will retire

[gauchojake]

I believe if it's a medical retirement the Heat get salary cap relief and Bosh gets paid the full contract. Win win

Bosh is one of the coolest guys on the team.

We love him here in Miami and he actually goes out and hangs out at local spots.

He is always at the breweries I hang out at and he is an avid beer collector like myself..

well then, I'm not surprised by his medical conditions. AThletes should not be consuming grains of anykind. This goes for the general public, as well. Grains strip the body of the nutrients needed to prevent things like blood clots

Hog wash!!!! ^^^ Whole grains are good for the body..

When you play the video... did he just introduce himself as a Veterinarian???? Who the fuk does that?

Trevor... I don't know where you get your info from... but a bowl of plain oatmeal... is one of the most important carbohydrate of your life.

High carbs.... and high fats.... that's what you don't want. You just need moderate carbs... that match the protein intake.

[ttwarrior1]

and all it is , is a deficiency of a couple minerals that docs dont know about, shame shame

[ttwarrior1]

u got to love all these people that still think whole grains are good, they think of the world wholesome i guess.

Wheat is junk, all wheat, except buckwheat

as well as barley, rye and oats

[mtneer1212]

The Heat are holding Bosh out for insurance reasons, plain and simple.

[thechaoz]

Right. Because money is everything. The guy can't do what he's done his whole life because he'd be at risk of DYING. But yea, he made lots of money so who cares.

Peanut logic here.

Boo hoo....it sucks but he's generational set. Not a worry in the world. Most of humanity just wonders where their next meal comes from

Hopefully he replaces Shaq on Inside the NBA.

Oatmeal is poison you penetrating jackass. I eat a high fat, high cholesterol, low card diet. I feel sorry for anyone who doesn't. You people are so penetrating dumb it's unreal

actually it is. If you look into it, doctors discount nutrition as a cause of disease.
