The news we have all been waiting for since NBA Free Agency opened up at 12:01 Tuesday morning. No, the Big 3 have not signed their deals yet but we could be getting an indication on what kind of deals they could be signing.
According to John Canzano of The Oregonian, LeBron James wants a short-term deal at max money. This is shocking because we thought that LBJ might go for the longer deal.
LeBron James wants short term (1-2 year deal) at max money contract w Heat, source close to negotiation tells me.

There is more to this story as it seems like Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade could get longer deals than James. As Canzano continues, he says that Bosh will get a five year deal while Wade will get a four year deal.
Chris Bosh 5 year deal will return to Heat, per source. Dwyane Wade will re-sign for 4 years in Miami.

Remember this is all from a source but this seems to have legs. Finally Canzano ends off with how much Bosh and Wade could be getting.
Chris Bosh’s 5-year deal with Miami expected to start at $11 million in year 1. Dwyane Wade will sign four years, $12 million in year 1

This will be interesting to follow as many teams around the league are either waiting for Carmelo Anthony or LeBron James to sign. It seems like James could sign sooner than we think while Melo is getting toured around Chicago by the Bulls.
