Report: Heat fear Chris Bosh's career is over

"There is a fear within the Heat organization" that Chris Bosh will never play in the NBA again, sources told ESPN's Brian Windhorst.
Per Windhorst, Miami's fear stems from the idea that Bosh's condition "will prevent him from ever being cleared to play by team doctors." One scenario on the table is Bosh being forced into medical retirement, and the two sides will have to navigate an uncertain and uncomfortable road together moving forward. There is a lot of uncertainty surrounding Bosh, and nobody—including Bosh and the Heat—knows how it will ultimately play out. May 16 - 9:25 AM

They needed him against the Raptors. Former Raptor now his career seems over sad story

[lakerboy]

The contract is guaranteed right?

[l7ustin]

[jjgold]

He's healthy I don't feel sorry for him he's a very rich guy

[Git Lo]

Guy is taking blood thinners, knew he wouldn't play again

[kmarinouofm]

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..

Nah but winning 2 rings certainly helps.

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.

[l7ustin]

Hes 32 how many years did he really have left at an elite level anyways.

[The Giant]

Pat Riley is already putting in calls to Kevin Durant.

[packerd_00]

Blood clots are nothing to joke with,might be time to call it a career. Raptors fans like myself will always have a lot of respect for the guy,played his heart for us.

[t-wizzle]

So he should only play if he's "elite" ???

I think it's time for Riley to quit.

No way HOF numbers

Bosh is for sure in the HOF

He's close. Like I said, the two rings might be the difference maker even though he was pretty awful for the most part during those championship runs.

• 2× NBA champion (2012–2013)
• 11× NBA All-Star (2006–2016)
• All-NBA Second Team (2007)
• NBA All-Rookie First Team (2004)
• 2008 Olympic Gold Medalist

he's 99.5% in according to basketball reference. Basically close to a lock as you can get.

[lakerboy]

11 all star games. 2 rings. No player with those stats that didn't make it.

Personally I think he was pretty overpaid for what little he did during the finals crusades.

[CanuckG]

10 all star games. 2 rings. No player with those stats that didn't make it.

exactly. 11 straight all star appearances would get him in regardless.

[packerd_00]

Who hasn't got in,even Yao Ming did.

[t-wizzle]

It's all relative. He played in the East when virtually all the good big men were in the West.

Similar numbers to Zach Randolph who won't sniff the Hall of Fame.

Most blood clots come from trauma to the lower extremities. Once found, patients have to be on blood thinners for 90 days, then they are essentially cured. Blood clot breaks down, go about life as usual.

In his case, blood clot returned absent of further trauma to the extremities. So he fits in category B, patients with a genetic clotting abnormality. These patients have to be on a blood thinner for life to prevent DVTs (deep vein thrombosis) or PEs (pulmonary embolism).

He's at low risk while on the blood thinners. Can live a very full long millionaire life. Problem is with the risk associated with contact sports with medically thinned blood. Risk of traumatic internal bleeding is too high for any doc to sign off on a return to NBA play. There is therefore no way he's playing again I don't know why it's dragged on this long.

Yes but you should read my entire post. Not just "Zach Randolph."

[JIBBBY]

Bosh needs to man up and play.. Leave it in Gods hand.. Doctors don't always know everything.. What else is he gonna do now, just sit around the house or sit behind a desk the rest of his life and begin to do this in his basketball prime?

I say he should demand to play and if he collapses and dies on the court atleast he dies doing what he loves.. I'd play myself and just up the blood thinners..
