A: And that timing certainly could help, with the Heat possibly to have cap space available to utilize in a trade at the June 22 NBA draft or before the July 1 start of free agency. When it comes to players who have trade kickers, that could be especially handy, being able to deal with them in 2016-17 terms, instead of 2017-18 costs. But, most importantly, it allows the Heat to move into free agency with a clear mind, without concerns about whether Bosh's cap hit could resurface, possibly in the luxury tax, down the road. Considering the process with Bosh has impacted three seasons, and considering the Heat went through three similar seasons after Alonzo Mourning's kidney diagnosis, if any team deserved a break and closure, it is the Heat. And with the agreement that is being finalized, it makes a possible return by Bosh elsewhere not something to be rooted against, but embraced if it does not compromise his health.
