What you just said, while maybe true, requires a lot of assumptions on your part and nevertheless is not an agreement in principle for Bosh to go to Miami. Again, it's bad reporting on that guy's part. I wouldn't say it's "sematics"--if you call something an agreement in principle and it's not, that's more than an error in semantics.
Perhaps you misunderstand me. The original reports about Bosh to Miami being a done deal struck me as B.S. I tried to make a reasonable inference about how the story could be both true and false. The notion that Miami and Toronto had reached an agreement and would have a scenario to present to Bosh tonight was my best guess because it's in the neighborhood of the report, it wouldn't entail any illegality, and it makes plenty of sense for Bosh to be interested in Miami and for him to have communicated that to Toronto. Simple as that. I'm not getting sucked in by bad reporting. I'm trying to read between the lines of the bad reporting to get a sense of what might actually be going on.
