Rockets offer Bosh max contract

After meeting last week with Carmelo Anthony in Houston about joining forces with Dwight Howard and James Harden, the Rockets have made a serious pitch to Chris Bosh about leaving Miami.

According to ESPN, the Rockets have offered Bosh a max-salary contract worth $96 million over four years.

The move to Bosh could signal that the Rockets think they can't get Anthony, who continues to mull offers from the Knicks, for max-salary money, along with the Lakers and Bulls.
