Heat Big 3 staying together


Recommended Posts

Seems that could be the plan. As a trio they can still be one of the more formidable partnerships in the league, however they need support. They need a true center and an upgrade at PG. Depending on the cuts the big three take, it is possible to upgrade those positions, while having the ability to put together a good bench.

That said, would Bosh be tempted to go to another team so he can be a main option, or at least play a bigger role than the number three option he is on the Heat? It is possible, would he consider here to pair up with Al?

Also, would LeBron see Cleveland as having a better starting line up at the minute with Iriving, Waiters and Wiggins as their main trio? It is possible he could bolt and join them. The Cavs have been tipped [again] to make a push for the 7th or 8th seed, with LeBron they could be a top four team in the East.

Overall they will probably stay together. But they have a lot of work to do to make sure it happens.

Melo is a huge possibility now that the big 3 all opted out. Also upon is haslem opted out. The heat have a record 55 million in cap room

It would be interesting to see if LeBron and Melo could work as a double act.

That cap space is going to make it an attractive landing spot for FAs. I wonder if the Heat will now try to sign LeBron to a max contract and keep the big three, with upgrades; or whether they will let Bosh and Wade go, and pursue other FAs to rebuild with?

The other thing, I wonder how the Heat fans would react if Bosh, LeBron and Wade walked in free agency, and they missed out on big name FAs to replace them? Worst case scenario they could end up tanking. Won't happen, but it would reveal how many of their fans stick by them...

I originally thought that there was a chance that they (James, Anthony, Wade, and Bosh) could form a big four but with James gearing up for a max, there is no way it could work unless Bosh and Wade each accept $10 mil a piece.

I'm expecting James to get a max and Bosh and Wade to get $15 per.

The issue with the big four would be that it doesn't fix any of their issues from last season. Bosh at center needs to change going forwards. If he stays he needs to slide back to his natural PF, and they need to find a C.

On paper Wade, Melo, LeBron, and Bosh gives them star and fire power to be a contender for sure. But it still leaves them with weaknesses that teams like the Spurs will exploit, and perhaps we and the Pacers could do as well with some more experience and upgrades.

Wade and Bosh should only come back at 10 mil a season or less. James looks like is wanting a max, but if I was him I'd go with the 17-20 type deal again. That way the heat can use some of that extra money on a legit center and a better bench.

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
