Chris Bosh, the Miami Heat superstar, recently admitted that he has decided to stay with the NBA franchise partially because he's being compensated well for his spot on the team.

Bosh was planning to sign a four year deal of $88 million with the Houston Rockets earlier this season, however he opted out at the last moment taking the $118 million deal for five years with Miami.

"It's always business," Bosh said via Sun Sentinel "Nothing is ever personal. I think 100 percent of those dudes would have taken the deal I took."

Although Bosh was interested in becoming one of the three major players in Houston, after joining James Harden and Dwight Howard, he felt his spot on the Heat was more important to him.

"It's not always about money, but you do want your full market value," Bosh said, "If you work your butt off to get to a certain point, you want to be rewarded for that."

Previously, the general manager of Rockets admitted that he was close to forming the best team in the league, but according to Bosh, he was not interested in any team offering him a contract.

"Everybody was aware, all parties were aware. It was always continuing conversations," Bosh said, "I never made any commitments. I never wanted to put anybody in the position to make them feel like I said something and I reneged on the whole thing. So I just kept it open. LeBron made his choice and then that kind of cleared things up, as far as negotiations are concerned."

Without James on the Heat, Bosh is expected to take on a major role in the upcoming NBA season.
