I just like sports especially basketball and getting to know people
How does an NBA franchise earn money/profit?
Aside from the obvious gate receipts, merchandise sales, I'd like to know some details like do they have profit sharing on TV ads, does playoff teams earn a whole lot more.. etc.
They pay very huge $$$ for their players and I wonder if they earn really huge profits.

12 AnswersBasketball1 decade agoWhat happened to Japeth Aguilar of WKU? Does he still play or what?
3 AnswersBasketball1 decade agoI'm back! Missed Yahoo Answers >> My Q: What do you think of Amare Stoudemire's knees?
I mean, will it hold up for the rest of the season or will he be inconsistent on DNPs? Sun's insiders, do you have the real score?
5 AnswersBasketball1 decade agoWho's the real Spurs star, Duncan or Ginobili?
Duncan is the franchise player and the anchor of their offense and great defense.. eversince he came to the spurs, they've won 3 titles
Ginobili is clutch and fearless esp in the playoffs.. not to mention all his international titles from NBA to Olympics.. the guy's won at all of basketball's highest levels of competition..
Who's the real star in the san antonio team then?? ..there can only be one choice...
(I'd especially love to hear from spurs fans)
13 AnswersBasketball1 decade ago(Basketball) crime does not pay! Who else thinks Suns will win Game 5?
If you have been following the suns-spurs series, you would never miss the cheap shots bowen and ginobilli gave to amare, nash and marion
now, here comes the pre meditated body check by horry on nash that caused the avalanche of consequences and suspensions. i wouldnt be surprised if popovich made the call.
it seems that the spurs got away with all these "crimes" against the suns and the NBA office have been morons for not catching them and making all the wrong decisions.
it seems the suspensions will stay, so now it's time to move on and (sigh).. believe (thanks, warrior fans) suns will win game 5
who's with me?
9 AnswersBasketball1 decade agoDo you believe that Bruce Bowen is a dirty player?
According to AP:
Phoenix All-Star Amare Stoudemire says the San Antonio Spurs are a "dirty team" and that Bruce Bowen tried to hurt him, nasty accusations sure to intensify the playoff series between two of the best teams in the NBA.
"He kicked me purposely in the back of my Achilles'. I almost came down wrong and he almost caused an injury," Stoudemire said after Thursday's practice. "He's known for doing that. I just hope the NBA and the commissioner take a look at that because it's definitely a dirty play."
What do you think?
13 AnswersBasketball1 decade agoHow come Carlos Boozer was a second round pick?

19 AnswersBasketball1 decade agoWarriors wont lose today unless refs rig them like in Game 2?
i really hope that wont happen and refs will let the players decide the outcome
6 AnswersBasketball1 decade agoIf Mavs get eliminated, will Dirk still win MVP?
also, if he wins, how in the hell will he receive it in their homecourt if they get eliminated..??
can you tell me when was the last time the MVP trophy was presented during first round of playoffs? i seem to remember all MVP trophies are presented in the 2nd round or later
12 AnswersBasketball1 decade agoNowitzki: You were fooled..?
Looks like he's choking again... He only has 2pts right now in game 2 against the warriors... he is a non factor again and cannot solve the small man defense.
I really hope he does not win MVP.. If he wins it, everybody else will in the NBA ballotting committee will be eating Adidas coz, they were fooled
6 AnswersBasketball1 decade agoHow do you improve one's memory?
i tend to forget some details on day to day activities and there are times that i loose track of what i plan to do (like what item should i pick up after going down the stairs..). plus i'm really no good remembering names... im still in my early 30s, and i theorize that im very pre-occupied that's why i forget..

13 AnswersBasketball1 decade agoDo you think Wade should switch from Converse to another brand?
I think Converse is still not popular enough and not selling well. This only hurts Wade more than the shoes. With his status, he should have a full blown marketing campaign similar to Lebron, Kobe and KG

Im sure there are other players who are a better defender than he is especially in his position... like james posey or shane battier...
artest transforming the kings into a defensive team is purely hype and wishful thinking
