With $1.5 Billion Which NBA Team Would You Buy?
Money, money, money, bags! The Powerball is now at an estimated jackpot of $1.5 BILLION for Wednesday's January 13, 2016, drawing. That’s illion with a “B”. This is more money than Dr. Dre received for selling Beats to Apple. 

But what does this have to do with basketball?

NBA teams on average are valued at $1.1 billion according to Forbes. With the NBA being top-heavy in value, there are only five teams you would have to take out additional cash to purchase. The Lakers, Knicks, Bulls, Celtics, and Clippers are out of reach of the $1.5 billion jackpot earnings. Yes, we know after taxes you wouldn’t have exactly $1.5 billion but for fun let’s imagine we didn’t have to pay Uncle Sam.

Taking into account the personnel, players, location, arena etc. Which team would you purchase if you were to win the Powerball jackpot?
