Is David Stern going to have to rework the CBA if Euro teams start offering NBA stars like Lebron big money?

I know, it’s insane, Olympiakos wants to offer Lebron James upwards of $40 or 50 million to play in Greece. Honestly, what does that accomplish? Are people even that interested in basketball there in Europe. The NBA is a huge organization in America. Not only would going to Europe hurt Lebron with his endorsements, it also sort of puts a damper on his career in America. What are these Euro idiots trying to prove? MLS could buy off Europe’s best players and bring them here, but it wouldn’t be a good investment!

Either way, I don’t like the NBA’s CBA anyway, it has numerous problems that are destroying the league.
