June 12, 201412 yr MIAMI -- The Miami Heat's immediate focus remains overcoming a 2-1 NBA Finals deficit to the San Antonio Spurs, but discussions have begun within the organization about trying to grow their so-called Big Three into a Big Four, according to sources close to the situation. Sources told ESPN.com that Heat officials and the team's leading players have already started to explore their options for creating sufficient financial flexibility to make an ambitious run at adding New York Knicks scoring machine Carmelo Anthony this summer in free agency.

June 12, 201412 yr Author If this happens what do D-Wade, LeBron and Bosh do? Do they stay or go? If LBJ. D-Wade and Bosh stay along with the addition of Melo, should the rest of the league be worried? Discuss
June 12, 201412 yr All of them should have enough money in the bank by now to make this happen if they really want to.
June 12, 201412 yr ...... I can't like the Heat, nor Carmelo, any less. A perfect marriage of unlikeability.
June 12, 201412 yr What is the cap now? Is this even possible if everyone only takes 12-14 million per season?

June 12, 201412 yr Maybe they can trade for Dat Dude & his contract too!? Perfect, he'd fit right in. Can they find room for Johnny Manziel?
June 12, 201412 yr What is the cap now? Is this even possible if everyone only takes 12-14 million per season? It's possible around $14M.
June 12, 201412 yr What is the cap now? Is this even possible if everyone only takes 12-14 million per season? Like I said, they should all have enough money in the bank to make this happen if they want to. Cut their salaries in half and go play. How willing are they?????
June 12, 201412 yr The Big 3 are the ones really pushing for this. There's few things that would make me strongly consider to stop watching the NBA. This is one of them.
June 12, 201412 yr ....... It should be noted, I think their line-up would have significant flaws and I'm not sure the result would even be equal to the sum of their parts. LeBron can't play 81 games, at 35 minutes a game, at the 4. D-Wade can't play the 1 full-time...heck, he can't PLAY full-time. A line-up of Bosh at the 5, LBJ at the 4, and Carmelo at the 3 would get annihilated on the glass and in the paint.

I also don't think he'd make the Heat much better. Obviously Melo has some serious talent, but he doesn't seem to fit into their style. They'd be better off getting a guy like Rajon Rondo.
