In the NBA's galaxy of stars, you'd better have an asterism if you want to play.
The feeding frenzy of this year's NBA free agency continues apace, with many of the most-coveted players already off the board, including Dwayne Wade's decision yesterday to skip a trip to play for the Denver Nuggets, and instead join his hometown Chicago Bulls. The NBA's biggest stars continue to gravitate to places that other star power exists. I'd talk about Kevin Durant turning Golden State into the NBA's version of the 1992 USA Olympic Dream Team, but that was already beautifully illustrated by the Big Stiff himself, Andrew Feinstein, in this year's lament over Kevin Durant's choice to join the already-loaded Golden State Warriors.
