Chris Bosh says Miami Heat season, 'More lows than highs'
Whenever the Miami Heat come together after the NBA lockout, power forward Chris Bosh said Wednesday they still must come together as a team.

Reflecting on both the work stoppage and his team being stopped two victories shy of a championship by the Dallas Mavericks in last season's NBA Finals, Bosh found himself in an introspective mode during an appearance on ESPN Radio's "Mike & Mike in the Morning."

Chris Bosh will be joining Dwyane Wade as a member of the Miami Heat -- as was widely expected.

ESPN's Chris Broussard first reported the package deal and multiple sources with access to Wade quickly confirmed.

 CONFLICTING REPORTS ABOUT BOSH TO HEAT IN SIGN-AND-TRADE DEAL

The Chris Bosh  era in Toronto may be officially over.

ESPN's NBA contributor Dan LeBatard reports that the Raptors are poised to complete a sign-and-trade deal with Miami that would see Bosh go to the Heat for power forward Michael Beasley, point guard Mario Chalmers and forward Joel Anthony.

According to Lebatard's Twitter message on Wednesday, Bosh and fellow potential free agent Wade share the same agent so there's no tampering involved.

Chris Bosh isn't waiting for some summit to determine his landing spot next season. The soon-to-be Toronto Raptors free agent is determined to chart his own course and forge his own identity apart from the star-studded field of peers also entering the open market.

"I don't want to be mentioned as an addition to a team," Bosh said prior to the season. "I want to be mentioned as the guy that people want to center their team around."

 Would Bosh and Turkoglu be enough?



Just in case you missed when he was benched for a March 28 game against the Heat and fined for his indifference, Hedo Turkoglu further fueled the fire of his discontent with the Raptors during a television interview in Turkey.

One translation of his recent interview put it thusly:
