Which City Will Be The Next Super Team!!!

If Miami wins it all which could happen I wonder What city will win the next jackpot?
If these players band together like this I can see it happening again. These players that have played a while in the NBA can take a little pay cut they have made plenty of money. 17 or so million a piece is still a lot of money.
The NBA will probably have to put a franchise tag on their superstars like the NFL so the teams don't lose these players. Things like this could ruin certain small market teams in the NBA.
For those that beleive the NBA is fixed could have a field day when the NBA MAKES SURE MIAMI doesn't win the championship as it would not be good for these other owners.
It will be interesting to see what happens in the future of the NBA!!!

In terms of the NBA, I think Chicago definitely has some upside. They're a fun team to watch as it is, so adding 1 big "stud" player may be enough.

When's Chris Paul's contract up?

Chris Paul and Rose on the same team doesn't make a lot of sense, but Melo on that team would be a perfect fit...

there have been rumors about the Bulls trading for Iguodala and possibly signing Korver... i believe they would be able to dump Brand's contract (which they would take in the trade) next year, and that could maybe allow them to get Melo... ?

so you could have Rose, Iguodala, Melo, Boozer and Noah, with guys like Korver and Gibson off the bench... would probably want to trade Deng or redo his contract... either way, that would be a strong team, with depth...

another team to look out for is OKC, with Durant and Westbrook, if they can bring in another superstar player...

you hear anything about the Iguodala trade rumors? i love Iguodala, personally... his defense can't be questioned, and he is a serious competitor... great addition if they can get him...

Is McGrady still there? If so, would that not make them a very dangerous team as well then?

i promise you either CP3 or Melo will join those guys in Miami... this whole plan was devised on the Dream Team in 2008, and both Melo and CP3 know about the plan... they will at least try to join that team... it is simply a matter of whether or not Miami will be able to make it happen money-wise... without question CP3 will be trying to land on that team...
