Bosh is not the missing piece anyways, he plays poor post defense. I would rather have a healthy amare and teach him defense....all that said, you dont seem to get (alot of fans dont though) how next to impossible it will be to get a bosh/wade/amare level player through free agency. That summer we wont have the cap room,. and we are buyers not sellers. We do your plan and we have a great shot of Lebron just leaving after the cavs have a disapointing year and he looks around at how bare the cubbards are.
We cant resign andy and have enough cap space. 60% of our cap will go to 2 players. 60% because a max contract to a 7 year players is 30%. 30% X 2 = 60%. Mo is on the books for 10, delonte 5...so thats another 15 mill. If the cap is 55 mill that leaves 22 for mo, delonte and others. We have a cap hold for 12 players. We will have those 4 plus rookies....not even enough room for the min rookie salary much less hickson, jackson, etc....
So one last time, you have to ask yourself, is it worth having Bosh, Lebron, Mo, West and 11 rookie/vet min players. I say hell no. Cubbards too bare, Lebron looks around and doesnt like it, gives his buddy Jay Z a call....and leaves
Draft and trades is how you get your key players, free agency is for complimentary players if you are a contender. The exception is for aging vets who are ring chasing. Bosh is not ring chasing yet.
