If that would happen... that would be great

It wouldn't be great for the long term. It'd be great for awhile Kobe or any other NBA stars are there.

If mass NBA stars flew to Europe league this offseason, sure the fans will get excited and start tuning in to watch them play. But once NBA gets them back, there obviously going to be a trauma the Stars are going to leave behind. The spoiled fans and media will be much harder to please. It's like asking you to watch the Heat game without the Heat's trio. Would you? As much as people think it'd be great for their league over there, but there is also a side effect in getting all these NBA stars.

I think they'll be fine. It'll be a novelty to have some NBA stars over there but the crowds seem pretty passionate about their basketball as-is, so I think they'll keep coming out to support their teams even after the NBA players return to the States.

The worst thing is that Besiktas accounts are frozen. Kobe and D-Will will not do anything in there.

Last year, the club didn't pay the players except AI. Then Iverson retired, but Besiktas was eliminated at playoffs.

So you are saying, this time around it's going to be Kobe, Williams and bunch of volunteers who won't get paid a dime. Way to build a great team. The Heat kinda did it and still made it to the Finals. :lol:

Not really. AI averaged 14 ppg, and was injured a lot.
