Is Miami a "big market"?

[The Fresh Prince]

We're asking whether or not Mia is a big market? A child would know that.

I think they've grown into one, but aren't historically. Along those same lines, they won't be a big market if LeBron leaves. Places like L.A. and New York will always be big markets no matter what.

I agree. Not as big as LA or NYC but they have an incredible amount of disposable money down there.
Think of all the celebrities and athletes that have places down there.
Retirement money is there. Tourist dollars go there.
They have the kind of money that can support pro teams.

Right now I'm sure the team has more money to spend because of jersey sales and so on, but in 2011 they were actually below the cap limit. Dallas' payroll that year was about $30 million more than Miami's.

Miami is a major market. the whole market break ups are stupid. are Ogden slc and Provo different markets? yes, but they're not. that's the same thing that has happened in the south beach area.
