2010 NBA Free Agency Prop Odds – Where will Chris Bosh Sign?
Expected to follow with others, Chris Bosh is a big free agent that could turn a team from a contender into a championship program.
With free agency ready to begin on July 1, the odds are out as to where Bosh will sign on to play next season.
Oddsmakers from online sports book SPORTSBETTING.com have given Chicago and Miami 5/6 odds to sign Bosh. Other short odds are New York (5/1) and Cleveland (10/1).
While many thought Bosh and LeBron James would head to the Bulls, Miami’s odds have shortened after a radio report from Stephen A. Smith on Monday that said James, Bosh, and Dwayne Wade will all be playing in Miami next season. Smith made the claim, citing unnamed sources on 790AM the Ticket.
Miami has the ability to sign all three without taking a cap hit as Wade re-signing with the team for a max contract leaves more money open for the other two. A re-signing doesn’t have the same affect that a new addition would have on the salary cap.
Chicago has the ability to also sign three max players as the Bulls traded Kirk Hinrich during the NBA Draft last week. The Bulls have expressed interest in trying to sign James, Bosh, and one other player like Wade or Joe Johnson.
New York has set themselves up to sign a few max contract players, but the buzz is dying down on their ability to sign LeBron, which would likely take Bosh out of the running. The Knicks lack a lot of talent and it appears that Bosh wants to play for an immediate contender.
Cleveland is among the favorites as well as they can offer James more money than any other team due to the NBA salary rules. With James signed, Bosh may be intrigued to head to Cleveland as well, but the Cavs can only sign two max contracts this offseason.
