The story begins during the 2004 Olympics when Lebron, Wade, and Bosh became good friends and decided to get the same agent and after 2004-05 season they all decided to take the contract extension for 4 years so they would become free agent after 6 seasons. They had decided to work together to play for the same team many many seasons ago and the rumor was they would be going to the big apple but during last season they decided that the Knicks would be to much of a rebuilding process so Lebron and Bosh came to the conclusion to join Wade on the beaches of Miami. Bosh played hard and did not get hurt until just before his contract was over and down the stretch he play uncomfortable but he played hard and never gave up and he was not the only reason that the Raptors have never been able to stop anyone on D. Then the problems started with the Raptors GM decided to not trade Bosh because he felt he could resign him and then he was not able to communicate with Bosh's people and then Bosh just showed up in Miami and the Raptors did not get anything for him and Bosh started to rip on Toronto and the organization through his twitter account. The Raptors GM came back with the statement "He quit on the team down the stretch to the end of the season and then Raptors coach Jay Triano said that Bosh was not a team leader.
The situation has been bad for the Raptors as they have been struggling without Bosh and have not had a go to guy this season but really it is not all Bosh's fault as the GM of the Raptors handled the situation badly as he did not read the situation correctly. He had felt that he was a straight shooter and that he would be able to sit down with Bosh's people and work out a deal even if he was deciding to leave they would be able to get him more money in a sign and trade deal that would help both the player and the team.
