New Melbourne Team sustainable?

If there is a lack of potential corporate support in Melbourne's outer east that could be a problem, but surely there are some major industries based out there that would be interested?

In the end, whilst professional basketball teams need corporate support, is there any real point (or likely longevity) to their existence if they don't have a passionate fanbase?

In a city as big and wealthy as Melbourne, I would have thought its more important to base a team in a location its potential fanbase can attend and then to cultivate a relationship with prominent local business people?
