City: I Create The Nba!

June 30.

The nba officially announced the team's salary cap for the new season.

48% of the league's $7.4 billion in total revenue, divided by the number of teams, gives a salary cap of $118.4 million!

This also means that the league's maximum salary has risen from $33.12 million to $35.52 million.

The salary cap is out.

All the teams took action one after another to renew the contracts with the leading players.

The Golden State Warriors immediately reached an extension with Wilt Chamberlain and signed a four-year maximum salary contract of 142.08 million US dollars, with an average of 35.52 million US dollars per year.

The Milwaukee Bucks reached a contract extension with Oscar Robertson and signed a four-year maximum salary contract of 142.08 million US dollars, an average of 35.52 million US dollars per year.

The Boston Celtics reached a contract extension with Bill Russell and signed a four-year maximum salary contract of 142.08 million US dollars, an average of 35.52 million US dollars per year.

The Los Angeles Lakers reached an extension with Jerry West and signed a four-year maximum salary contract of 142.08 million US dollars, an average of 35.52 million US dollars per year.

These players are the "superstars of the 60s" in Jiang Han's eyes.

At that time, they all signed three-year contracts with the team.

"Superstars of the 70s" such as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Rick Barry all renewed their contracts with the team's maximum salary after their first season.

However, Chamberlain, Baylor and others, considering that the NBA salary cap will rise significantly, fulfilled their three-year contracts.

Now the three-year period has come.

If the team does not renew their contract with their maximum salary, then 267 Chamberlain and others will enter the free market to test the waters.

There are many stars in the NBA, but superstars are rare.

What team wouldn't want a superstar of Wilt Chamberlain's caliber?

In addition, these stars all meet the reward conditions in the NBA's maximum salary clause, and they can sign a contract with 30% of the salary cap when they renew their contracts.

And those stars with incentive conditions can only sign a contract with 25% of the salary cap when they renew their contracts.

In addition, stars such as Michael Jordan, who was selected as the All-Star starter last season, also renewed their contracts with their respective teams with a maximum salary.

The Chicago Bulls reached an extension with Michael Jordan and signed a 4-year maximum salary contract of 142.08 million U.S. dollars, an average of 35.52 million U.S. dollars per year.

The Los Angeles Lakers reached a contract extension with Ervin Johnston and signed a 4-year maximum salary contract of 142.08 million U.S. dollars, with an average of 35.52 million U.S. dollars per year.

The Boston Celtics and Larry Bird reached a contract extension and signed a four-year maximum salary contract of 142.08 million US dollars, an average of 35.52 million US dollars per year.

The Atlanta Hawks reached a contract extension with Dominique Wilkins and signed a four-year maximum salary contract of 142.08 million US dollars, an average of 35.52 million US dollars per year.

Karl Malone, Olajuwon, David Robinson, Isiah Thomas and others signed a four-year maximum salary contract of 118.4 million U.S. dollars with the team, an average of 29.6 million U.S. dollars per year.

The large-scale maximum salary extension has almost made the salary cap of every (agcb) team unhealthy.

Take the Los Angeles Lakers as an example.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's salary is $33.12 million, Magician John Xun's salary is $35.52 million, and Jerry West's salary is $35.52 million, which already occupies $104.15 million in salary space.

Elgin Baylor does not meet the incentive conditions and can only sign a maximum salary of 29.6 million US dollars.

At present, he has not reached an extension with the team.

If Baylor succeeds in renewing his contract, the four stars will already occupy a salary space of 133.76 million U.S. dollars, far exceeding the 118.4 million U.S. cap.

Not to mention there are other players on the Lakers lineup!

If adjustments are not made in time, the Lakers will need to pay a lot of luxury tax, even a super luxury tax in the new season!

Teams such as the Boston Celtics, Golden State Warriors, and Atlanta Hawks are also facing the same problem.

No way, this is the balance mechanism of the NBA league!

There are so many teams in the league, but the number of stars is limited. If you have four or five stars in one team, it will undoubtedly affect the balance of the league.

For this reason, teams such as the Lakers and Celtics need to make trade-offs to a certain extent, and trade away some of the team's stars to ensure the healthy development of the team.

July 1.

The nba free market is open.

Players from 30 teams who have no contracts or whose contracts are full can trade and transfer freely.

Lakers star Elgin Baylor, Celtics star John Havlicek, Celtics star Bob Cousy, Eagles star Bob Pettit and others tested the free market.

Teams that still have salary space, their eyes are shining!

These outstanding players, they have been dreaming of for a long time, and now they finally have the opportunity to get them in their pockets!

Soon, each team contacted the agents of Baylor, Pettit and other stars and offered an olive branch.

In the end, the New Orleans Pelicans, which lacked an outstanding guard, became the new owner of Bob Cousy, with a contract of $118.4 million for 4 years.

The Miami Heat, which lacked an outstanding striker, became the new owner of Elgin Baylor with a contract of 118.4 million US dollars for 4 years.

Bob Pettit joined the Milwaukee Bucks on a four-year, $118.4 million contract.

John Havlicek joined the Indiana Pacers on a four-year, $118.4 million contract.

The rest of the stars have also found teams that suit them.

When the free market set off a frenzy of grabbing people, the nba summer league had already begun.

Rookies, undrafted players, marginal players on the bench, international players, and development league players all dare to fight and fight hard, hoping to be favored by the team.

Except for rookies with guaranteed contracts, all other players want to play at the highest level in summer league to win a chance to enter the nba league!

at the same time.

During this period of time, NBA officials have also reached contract renewal cooperation with major broadcast organizations.

Youtubetv signed a new broadcast agreement with the NBA, the contract is $1.5 billion for 5 years!

Bein signed a new broadcast agreement with the NBA, the contract is $1.5 billion for 5 years!

Star Media signed a new broadcast agreement with the NBA, the contract is $1.5 billion for 5 years!

Lotte Co., Ltd. signed a new broadcast agreement with the NBA, the contract is 1.5 billion U.S. dollars for 5 years!

Beston signed a new broadcast agreement with NBA, the contract is 1.5 billion US dollars for 5 years!

Fuji Xun Sports signed a new broadcast agreement with nba

The sports channel signed a new broadcast agreement with the NBA, the contract is 1.5 billion US dollars for 5 years!

However, ABC, NBC, and CBS in the United States had no choice but to stop preparing to cooperate with the NBA because they could not afford the high broadcast fees.

There was nothing they could do.

Broadcasting agencies such as Beston, Fuji Xun Sports, and Lotte Co., Ltd. are not located in the United States, and the price of broadcasting rights will not be too high.

If it was only 5 years and 1.5 billion US dollars, they would have signed it.

But there are espn and t'en t's "beads and jades first", unless the three TV stations also spend 24 billion US dollars in 9 years, it is impossible to obtain the right to broadcast the nba league

After weighing the pros and cons, they chose to give up.

Advertising sponsorship.

The nba league has also been favored by a large number of sponsors.

Nike signed a five-year, $1.5 billion jersey sponsorship deal with the NBA.

Last season, Nike signed superstars such as Michael Jordan, Magician John Shun, and Larry Bird, earning a lot of money.

For the first time in the field of basketball, Nike has tasted a big sweetness.

From now on, they will focus more on the nba league and thoroughly tap the business opportunities in the basketball field.

other sponsors.

The nba has also gained a lot.

Not only companies that have previously cooperated with the NBA choose to renew their contracts, but many new partners are also willing to try to reach cooperation with the NBA.

For a time, nba advertising sponsorship fees skyrocketed.

After finishing the statistics, Jiang Han found that the number of NBA partners has reached 108, including the broadcast contract, the total revenue of the NBA has reached 8 billion US dollars!

after the figures were published.

People from all walks of life were silently speechless.

You know, the new nba season hasn't started yet.

The share of tickets, sales of alliance logo products, development of alliance derivative products, global promotion, etc. are not included.

$8 billion already made!

Everything goes well.

At the end of the season of the NBA league, it might be able to reach a total revenue of 10 billion US dollars, wrestling with the MLB baseball league!

This earning power.... is outrageous!.
