Total: $48m 

They'd have roughly $15m in cap space. 
its about the timing though.

The Big 3, for example, they don't count towards the cap at the moment(assuming Wade the other 2 opt out) So the Heat can technically sign a couple of big money deals. Then they could sign the big 3 and go over the $63mil cap figure due to bird rights. But obviously, they won't go too far with that due to the tax penalties.

My main point is they can go over that soft cap amount as long as they sign other guys first.

No they can't. The cap hold is still there even after the Big Three opt out until they sign a new deal either with Miami or someone else.
