Bosh says goodbye to Toronto, hello to Miami on websiteBack to video

“I just want to thank you guys for one of the best experiences of my life,” Bosh wrote on the left side of the page. A greeting to Heat fans is posted on the right.

Bosh, whose posts on Twitter during his impending free agency left some fans feeling he seemed all too eager to leave Toronto, said the decision to leave after seven years with the Raptors wasn’t easy.

“As I diehard sports fan, I know what it’s like when a familiar face decides to leave and so I understand your disappointment,” he says. “But know that this was my toughest decision, mostly because Toronto has been so great to me. I’ve loved every minute here and I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart …

“To a world-class city and its world-class fans, thank you.”

And to Miami he writes: “I really think that this is the beginning of something very special.”
