NBA Trade Rumors: Will Miami Heat deal with Cleveland Cavaliers to give away Chris Bosh?

Chris Bosh now enters his seventh season in a Miami Heat jersey, but his health issues have reportedly placed his current owners in a transfer conundrum. Should the Heat decide to let Bosh go, will they send him to Cleveland in exchange for the Cavaliers' Kevin Love?

According to Deadspin, when doctors Bosh's second clot was discovered in his leg during the All-Star break last season, they reportedly told the Miami Heat star that he's risking a potential career-ender.

Bosh, however, seemingly quashed those claims by claiming that he's healthy enough to represent the Heat this coming season. But he has yet to receive clearance to play just five days before the Miami Heat's training camp.

With the departure of the Heat's longtime superstar Dwayne Wade for the Chicago Bulls this coming season, the Heat went to Hassan Whiteside as he signs a blockbuster deal this off-season worth $98 million for 5 years. Compared to Whiteside's $980,000 salary last season, he's set to make roughly a whopping $22 milliion - the largest pay rise in the NBA every since Michael Jordan went from $3 million to $30 million, as said by Shaun Powell in nba.com.

So even if Wade is gone, this will probably be Hassan Whiteside's team now and not Bosh.

If the Miami Heat decides to move in Chris Bosh, they might consider making a deal to the Cleveland Cavaliers in exchange for Kevin Love.

Before Love moved in to the Cavs, he was known as the superstar of the Minnesota Timberwolves. But many have been disappointed with the way he is playing with the current NBA champions. In that sense, perhaps Love just doesn't fit in with the Cavs.

Making this trade might benefit both teams, according to Chatt Sports Net. Love can restore his confidence in Miami and get back to his all-star level play with the Heat, who needs quality players right now.

On the other hand, we know that Lebron James and Bosh could play well together. They have 2 NBA Championship belts to prove that. If Bosh gets healthy, a James-Bosh combo could be a deadly weapon for the Cavs.

As of now, the Miami Heat have yet to release an official announcement of Bosh's availability this season.

Will Bosh remain a Miami Heat player this season? Or will he join his former teammate James in Cavs to make another NBA championship run?
