wait a minute. No one "cares" what name is on the front of the jersey. Why would anyone hold that against these guys? Every player will move if another is going to pay them more money, or surround them with more talent. Doesn't matter the team name.

There is a reason they are called FREE agents. They are FREE to go play where they choose. Are you saying the NBA should have tried to stop it? If so, I couldn't disagree more.
Pro athletes just can't win these days. If they take a max contract, people just say they are in it for the money. If they take less money to try to win, people criticize them for creating a super team.
Bron is free to play anywhere he wants. To me, the way he left CLE is the reason why people have issues with him.
Not saying they should have stopped it at all. My only disdain for the NBA in this is how they condone it in order to milk the profits. I'll be curios to see how many times per game Wade and James go to the line. Remember 2006?
Basically, the top 5 players in the NBA could sign small 2 year contracts just to play together and the NBA would be okay with it. This is going to start happening more and more and small market teams are going to get screwed.
The fans care a LOT more about the 'name of the front' than the players. That goes for all sports.

Ok. Talk to me about this when there is no cap in the NFL and they let the Cowboys buy all the talent because they have the largest fan base and its "good for business".
Seriously?
And you say small market teams have no chance? Then what about what Memphis and OKC did in these playoffs? Or what the Spurs have done this decade. If built well, small market teams can compete in the NBA.
Cap or no cap. Your argiment is its good for business and I just dont see that. Difference of opinion
