The Miami effect. Dudes are sleep if they don't think Melo's brand wouldn't grow exponentially by playing with Miami.

yep and ppl think the non state tax will make up the difference lol...as if somehow coming to south beach would exempt him from paying the rich mans tax. His salary as of now is 21 mil with 23 mil coming the next yr. In order for it to work in mia... he would have to either get a large long term salary to which his salary increase tremendously every year with incentive based bonuses, or a short opt out salary to which he would have to take roughly 14.5/15 mil a yr for about 4 yrs.
So including the tax etc... differences, its basically comparing 19 mil to 14 and some change mil.

Yes it would. Playing with a winner, playing in Miami, next to Lebron? You kidding if you don't think it wouldn't benefit him in a huge way.

I'll challenge one of you to a SN bet.
If the Heat have an even number at the end of the 1st q.. I'm gone.
If the heat have an odd number at the end of the 1st q,,, You're gone.
Anyone got the guts ?

The Miami effect lol.
The Lebron effect more then anything.
I'm not saying his brand won't grow but how much more can it get.
Aleady has sig line, tv show, commercials ect.
And if you think MIA >NY marketing, Jeremy Linn would like to have a word with you.
When did Miami become a sports mecca?

This whole nyc is the mecca blah blah is all a false facade. When you look at it for truly what it is in terms of product, success etc.. in reference to basketball its faaaar from being a mecca. Its not like 1. they produce the most nba players. 2. Have produced the most hof bball. 3. Have the most nba/aba championships.
Even when you look at tv ratings etc... even in the knicks hayday, better days. the knicks popularity and viewership was never leading among the top in the nba.
Its one of those things that was said before the age of internet and what not that was said/stated as gospel and without any real way to prove it spread like wildfire and folks started to accept it as truth.
If anything cali would be more of a mecca of bball then nyc seeing as on a pro level has produced more players, and have more championships....justsayin

Pretty sure melo has already spent the next two years salary on junk food. I can't see him taking a massive paycut

Wade got a shoe deal that included an equity stake in the company.
He doesn't even get offered that unless he's playing on basketball's biggest stage every year.

Not to mention if bosh chooses to go to another team his contract will reflect his previous success with the heat even with a dip in production.

I do think that if the Spurs win that DBD should be allowed back for ONE day.

I'll just randomly select their names now, from an online screenname selector.

What say you, Chester, CP?
