07/09/2010 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chris Bosh officially joined the Miami Heat Friday night via sign-and-trade with the Toronto Raptors.
The Raptors acquired two first-round draft picks and a trade exception from the Heat to facilitate the deal.
Bosh announced Wednesday that he would join forces with Dwyane Wade to play in Miami, although there was some question as to how the five-time All-Star would arrive on the Heat - either directly through free agency or in a sign-and- trade. It became a triumvirate All-Star festival Thursday night when LeBron James announced he was going to Miami. Because Bosh arrived in the sign-and- trade mode, he can be paid as much as $128 million, but he'll likely have to earn less. He could have gotten as much as $99 million through free agency.
"It's all about winning," Bosh said during a press conference Friday night after the Heat held a celebration for their big three free agents. "If it was about money and it was about numbers we'd all go back to our respective teams. When you get wins, all the individual accolades come. I averaged my career best last year and nothing happened."
Bosh averaged 24 points and 10.8 rebounds last season, but the Raptors finished two games below .500 and missed the playoffs.
"We all just witnessed an unprecedented moment in professional sports as these three young stars have joined forces in an attempt to completely transform this league. We are certainly sorry to see Chris leave, but we are planning to use these acquired assets to retool our roster and evolve as an organization," said Raptors president and general manager Bryan Colangelo.
The Raptors reacquired their own 2011 first-round pick originally sent to the Heat on February 13, 2009 and Miami's 2011 first-round draft choice (lottery protected). The Raptors traded Jermaine O'Neal and Jamario Moon to the Heat in that February 13 deal for Shawn Marion and Marcus Banks.
The fourth overall selection in the 2003 NBA Draft, Bosh has career averages of 20.2 points, 9.4 rebounds, 1.2 blocks. He is the all-time franchise leader in points (10,275), total rebounds (4,776), free throws made (2,997) and blocks (600).
"Playing with these guys, sure the numbers are going to go down," Bosh said. "But the wins are going to go up. It just falls into place. We just have to make this place an environment where we work hard and put the team first."
