NBL hypothetical - Queensland teams
(No idea if this is on the cards, but it could be a possibility and I was curious as to what justification people might have for retaining or dumping teams. I'm not intending to scare fans of any Queensland teams here.)
If you were looking for a ten-team NBL, but the composition of the league meant that you could only justify three teams in Queensland, what would you do?
At stake, in my opinion, would be the three teams playing in 08/09 - Cairns, Townsville, and Gold Coast - plus the recently-dead-but-likely-hoping-to-return Brisbane Bullets.
Would you keep the current three, but go without a side in the state capital? Would you drop big-money Cairns and let Brisbane back in? Would you lose the consistent Crocs? Or reluctantly remove the Blaze, despite them being in a growth area?
