Gotta love all the free agency talk — there’s so many different rumors & theories. Well it appears that Miami’s ‘Big 3’ are not on the same page. Have they played their last game together? Does Wade & Bosh know what LeBron plans to do?
Hit the jump for what’s being said according to sources…
Via ESPN:
When the Miami Heat’s “Big 3” went their separate ways after a lunch meeting last Wednesday, they went not knowing whether they had played their last game together, according to sources with knowledge of the situation.
While Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh were committed to returning to the Heat, LeBron James was unsure of what he would do, the sources said.
The only certainty coming out of the meeting concerning James was that he wanted a maximum-level salary.
James did not ask or suggest that Wade and Bosh opt out of their deals or take lesser salaries to allow the Heat to add other top players, according to the sources.
When Bosh and Wade opted out of their contracts a few days later — joining James who had done so before their lunch meeting — it was widely assumed the three were working together and would all return to the Heat.
But sources who have spoken with two of the Big 3 said that was not the case. Bosh and Wade are intent on returning to Miami, but neither of them knows what James will do.
