It's still renewed
According to ESPN
NBA league commissioner Xiao Hua
Formally completed the renewal negotiations with the Board of Directors of the Alliance
The two sides signed a long-term contract
The contract is expected to be extended until 2023!
Xiao Hua's original salary was $10 million a year
The amount of this renewal contract has not been revealed
But fans speculate that it must be a contract of hundreds of millions
This year is 2024
There are still 6 years until 2030
What does these 6 years mean?
I'm sure the fans know it
In this regard, the report of Xiao Hua's contract renewal came out
Netizens shouted:
The NBA is completely hopeless......
Turn the NBA into pure commercialization
So that the real fans will never see it again
Pure basketball
For the fans
Definitely does not support Xiao Hua's contract renewal
But for players and owners
It's something that everyone wants to see
They hope that Xiao Hua stays as long as possible!
It is worth mentioning
In March of last year
The American media reported that Xiao Hua was about to leave the NBA
Replace Robert Iger
Become the CEO of Disney
In this regard, Xiao Hua himself personally responded to this rumor:
"I love what I do
I have no intention of going anywhere. ”
Next, let's take stock
Since Xiao Hua took over the NBA
What exactly has changed in the alliance
Why is the NBA completely hopeless?
In 2014, Xiao Hua officially became the NBA president
This year marks his 10th year as NBA commissioner
During Xiao Hua's tenure
The NBA has introduced a number of reforms
The NBA's brand and business value are rising
There has been a significant increase in broadcasting contracts compared to the past
As a result, players' wages have increased dramatically
Ten years ago, the NBA's maximum salary contract was only $20 million
Nowadays, it includes Brother Alphabet, Thick Eyebrows, Lillard,
Jaylen Brown and others have signed
A single contract with an average annual salary of more than $60 million!
What's even more terrifying
An annual salary of 60 million is nothing at all
70 million began to appear
In the future, the salaries of the players will definitely get higher and higher
This is for athletes who play in the NBA
Undoubtedly a good thing
The players have a lot of money and a lot of money
For the fans, they don't care at all
What the fans care about is the quality of the game
But Xiao Hua made a series of reforms
Not only does it make the game more and more ugly
And even started playing "fake"!
Now it's okay, and the showdown is not pretended
In 2018, the NBA officially became the first in the United States
A sports league that works with a legal spinach company!
Sports competitions and spinach hooks
What an ingredient for this
I believe there is no need to say anything
And why do it
First, for money
The second is that Xiao Hua is working on
The NBA is going to take the next step
That's the expansion of the team!
It has been reported before
The NBA is preparing to complete the expansion in the next few years
Expand the number of teams from 30 to 32!
The two cities that have been settled at the moment are:
Las Vegas and Seattle
James, O'Neal and other stars
All want to participate in the expansion of Las Vegas
And Las Vegas is best known for-
Spinach industry!
It's not just the players who are making money
The bosses also make a lot of money
The NBA's league revenue has exceeded $10 billion
The current average team valuation is as high as $3.85 billion
Reference: Jordan sells the Hornets
Cuban sells the Lone Ranger
There are brothers who may have to talk about it again
Since it's so valuable
So why did Jordan and Cuban sell the team?
The reason is simple
Realize early and make money early!
The NBA is indeed getting more and more profitable
But it's also becoming less and less ornamental
What if one day the audience doesn't pay for it?
Who can guarantee that day will not come!
Fans want to see it
It's a game that combines offense and defense
And not just a big fight
Two teams you 150 and I 140 points
In the past few decades, there was only one 60+, 70+
Now there are less than three or four on 70 points a month
Awesome, really powerful
But I always find it boring
Increased foul challenge
Changed secondary offense to 14 seconds
Revise a number of NBA on-court rules
Causes body hair whistles to fly sideways
Home and away decisions are mixed
Blowing penalties against players, etc
What's even more disgusting
There is also a referee report in the last 2 minutes after the game!
Data Experts' Photos:
In the last 10 years of the Shaw era
NBA进攻效率飙升10.1
The score per 100 rounds soared from 105.6 to 115.7
Again, that's the same sentence
The kind of hand-to-hand confrontation that used to be fought between yellow and green
Put it to the present and leave the field with a full foul...
It's not over yet
Xiao Hua also pioneered the play-off format
Pioneered the Mid-Season Tournament
Rules have been drawn up for the selection of each award
Players are required to play the full 65 games
It's good to say that it sounds good to make the game more exciting
Mobilize fans and players
In fact, it's all profit-oriented
I'll leave it to you in the end
What other policies are there
Do you think it's not necessary to be outrageous?
