Consecutive.

Do all big 3 have opt out clauses?

[hanso]

The only talk of FA I hear is about is James and he isn't saying much about wanting to leave just the opposite.

he hasnt said the opposite. He said before the season he wont talk about it either way, and he hasnt.

Bron can opt out. If he doesnt, all of them are up next year. I think bron is the only one with an opt out, but I am not sure

If the heat win again or LeBron gets another MVP it could work in his favor to opt out and rework a new deal, only obstacle could be the cap

umm, a few things here, starting with I guess you dont follow much of basketball.

First of all, regardless of whether he wins MVP or a title, im pretty sure he could opt out and get max money. I dont think, aside from injury or a big time roids thing, there is anything that would change his negotiating position.
2, the NBA has a soft cap. there is a point where eventually there is a hard cap but no one ever really gets there.
You are allowed to go over the cap to keep players you already have. You just cant sign guys if you are over. So they could give bron whatever he wants, it wouldnt matter.
But there is a maximum you can make in the NBA. its not like baseball or football

Speaking of Miami, Will Stanton stay with the Marlins?

They are in no rush to give him Freddy Freeman money. And are not surrounding him with much, although I read the other day a top pitching prospect maybe be coming out who could be another Jose Fernandez.
