Chris Bosh suggested strongly on Thursday that he will forgo signing a contract extension this summer, setting himself up to be part of the famed 2010 free agency class.

"(When) I signed a three-year (extension in 2006)... I had a goal in mind, and that was to put myself in the best position (in 2010) ... I'm thinking I just want to stick to my goal, stick to what I was doing," said Bosh.

"That's a part of the plan ... I just want to address things (after) next season. There's a reason why I did things the way I did them back then."

Bosh considers the situation a 'win-win' for both sides.

"It puts pressure on both sides. It puts pressure on me to perform, and it puts pressure on the organization to perform as well," said Bosh.
