Houston Rockets GM Daryl Morey met with Chris Bosh on Thursday morning according to a tweet by Morey.

"Just finished meeting with @chrisbosh - great player & person. He is about winning so I focused on how w/Houston he can win a championship."

The Rockets have been targeting Bosh for months. Their pitch to Bosh is pretty straightforward. They believe he is a perfect fit with the existing talent they have on their roster and they can offer Bosh a return home to Texas.

The Rockets will also stress that if Bosh joins the Rockets, they're likely a 60 win team. If he forms a trinity with LeBron James and Dwyane Wade in Miami, the Rockets believe the team won't have enough supporting talent to support a championship team. The Rockets believe such a pairing would produce a 45 win team.

To land Bosh, the Rockets would have to work a sign-and-trade with the Raptors. The team could offer a players like Jordan Hill, Aaron Brooks and the expiring contracts of Jared Jeffries and David Anderson for Bosh.

The big 3 would only win 45 games? Stupid.

I do agree that Bosh with Yao is a good look for everyone involved.

Western Teams need to add size to contend.

lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

And this is why the Hill trade was so terrible. We could have gotten rid of Jeffries through a draft-day trade and still had Hill and our draft picks as assets. Instead, Houston is probably going to trade Hill, our draft picks, and 1 or 2 other players, to get Bosh. Walsh needs to be fired by the end of the month if we don't get Lebron.
Trust the Process

For what its worth, Vecesey said that Bosh does not want to play in Texas because he wants distance from family and friends. It didn't seem like his typical sarcasm.

yeah, bosh has said he doesn't want to play in texas.

i think bosh met with morey first because he was home in texas and morey contacted him first.

i still see bosh going to miami. i don't think anything changes that.

WAS took Kirk Hinrich's $17M dollar contract off the Bulls' hands for a #17 draft pick on Draft Night... we had to give away a #8 lottery selected rook, swap rights for 2011 protected to #1, & our 2012 pick protected to #5 to dump Fishlips' $7M dollar salary months before the draft... i thought making deals early was supposed to get you discounts but apparently that doesn't apply for us.

After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

Kahn rejected the Chalmers and Beasley idea. He asked instead for a $16mil exemption and to get their first rounder back from Miami. Anyone think Riley will do it?

Maybe Bosh is considering Houston. This is from Wojo:

"We feel like we'd be an elite team in the West [with Bosh], as good as anyone," Morey said. "We're a team ready to win. The core of players we had won more games than any team without a superstar, and now we're going to add Yao Ming. Adding Chris Bosh with Yao, I think we could be a 60-win team."

Yao sent Bosh a message on Twitter about an hour before the negotiating period for free agents opened. Yao said Tuesday that he'll be 100 percent healthy for training camp after sitting out last season following foot surgery.

"Hey Chris, hopefully you'll play with us next season," Yao said. "I'll be healthy and I'd really look forward to playing together."

The Houston Chronicle reported that according to a source, Bosh said he "definitely" would consider the Rockets, and would be interested in playing with Yao on "a world stage."
