Bosh Blocks Himself

Breaking news coming from the Miami Heat, Chris Bosh did not pass his physical due to complications of blood clots flowing. This is a huge blow to Bosh, and his comeback hopes. He averaged 26 points per-game while Dwayne Wade was out with injuries. Now the Heat will depend on Goron Dragic and Hassan Whiteside to pick up production with Bosh still out. Before his physical, the Miami Heat were not comfortable and convinced with letting Chris Bosh playing for their team just yet. Bosh has been claiming since the off-season that he is "ready to go" for a much depleted and rebuilding Heat team. Bosh is still owed about 76 million dollars in the final three years of his contract.

According to NBA.com, "There are several unanswered questions regarding Bosh's situation, which got more complex this week when he revealed that multiple clots were found this past February - and that a CT scan was utilized in finding them. CT scans are often used when trying to find if clots have traveled to the upper body." Bosh left last year with blood clots, after the first one was found in the 2015 NBA season. Hopefully, Bosh can recover and play again in the NBA and continue his stellar career.

For the Miami Heat, they have to make a move now to replace Bosh. Supposedly, the Heat would start Josh McRoberts or Derrick Williams at the power forward position. Now, with a starting lineup of Dragic, Johsnon, James Johnson, Williams or McRoberts, and Whiteside, the Heat will be hopeing for a high lotteray draft pick after this season. This means the Heat will more than likely tank and hope for a top notch free agent like Chris Paul or Gordan Hayward in free agency with some Pat Riley magic.
