NBA Income Wealth, it’s the thing which makes the world go round. Since the dawn of time humans have searched for ways to get wealth and keep wealth. Humans have traded, bartered, plundered and killed for wealth throughout history. Today we are constrained by laws and civilized society but our thirst for wealth continues. That is the problem for today’s small marker NBA teams. Especially the bottom 8, or the eight smallest market teams. They struggle to be financially secure year after year and it keeps getting harder as the salary cap continues to grow.
When the NBA began to implement its salary cap a few years ago, it may have unexpectedly stepped on a landmine. The Salary cap is determined by the overall revenue of the basketball income in the NBA. So as the league is more successful so are the teams. For the mid-market and large market teams this is great, but the smaller markets are hurt by this. The NBA salary cap is $55.63 million dollars this year, up from around 53 million in 2006-07, the minimum salary is roughly 47 million dollars and the luxury tax threshold is just less than 68 million. That is a lot of money, money which many of the smaller teams are finding harder and harder to come by.
The Bottom eight teams: Memphis, Charlotte, Portland, Minnesota(Minneapolis), Indiana(Indianapolis), Utah(Salt Lake City), Milwaukee, and New Orleans, all play in cities with around 1 million people and which do not garner a lot of media attention. Their local TV deals pale in comparison to the local TV deals which the larger markets get. The Average local TV deal for an NBA team is around 12 million dollars, but of all the small markets only New Orleans and Utah received that much or more from their local television market.
Complete Article What to look for this seasonThe NBA season’s just a couple of weeks away, and there are a lot of intriguing scenarios shaping up. Each of the 30 teams has a player or group of players which should change their perspective teams this year. But I won’t be able to cover them all. So here are a few that I have seen enough of, that I can give a fair perspective of their games.
Boston CelticsThe Celtics are of corse the most interesting and exciting aspect of basketball going into this season. They have practically a brand-new team. They added superstars’ Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett as well as solid talent in guys like James Posey, and Eddie House. The Celtics have gone from a forgotten team to the team on every ones minds, as they could be searching for their 17th franchise NBA title.
Kobe BryantWhat is up with Kobe? Will he stay with the Lakers? Will he get traded? Who knows? But the situation with Bryant has put him and the Lakers back into the spot light. In fact his situation has gotten as much press as what the Celtics.
Golden State WarriorsAfter last years improbably finish to the season, can the Warriors keep the momentum going? They traded Jason Richardson to the Bobcats for the draft rights to Brandan Wright. The Warriors also had a scare the first day of training camp when Monte Ellis got a neck injury, Ellis appears to be all right but hasn’t been playing so he could be a bit rusty.

Complete Article Jazz-Bucks game recap with picturesThe Jazz and Bucks begin, what hopefully will be a long and fruitful season for both teams, as well as for NBAhoopsonline covering the NBA. Yours truly as gotten season tickets, so I will be bringing you game recaps from most if not all 41 home games for the Utah Jazz this season. I’d love to be able to do recaps for other teams, but just do not have the capital.
The game was pretty much what you expect to see from a preseason game; sloppy basketball being played by stars and scrubs alike. Scrub play is also a key part of preseason basketball. The Bucks didn’t dress one of their stars–Mo Williams– but they did play Michael Redd for a period in the first and third quarters. The Jazz were lacking Carlos Boozer and Matt Harpring, and like the Bucks they ran their stars for only a limited time.
Ronnie Brewer was the best player on the floor. He has taken quit a stride from last year. He still doesn’t look for the outside shot very often, but is able to slash to the basket for easy points. His defense is what impressed me the most. It’s vastly improved from last season, and on a Jerry Sloan coached team, that alone with get him playing time. From what I saw in the game I would have to make the assumption that Brewer will likely be the starting shooting guard for the Jazz when the season starts.

Complete Article The Teams: Denver NuggetsThis team originated in Kansas City, and for a while were called the Rockets. No, they aren’t the Sacramento Kings or Houston Rockets; they are the Denver Nuggets.
The original Nuggets team was from 1948-50 was one of the original founders of the NBA. This current Nuggets team gained the nickname Nuggets in 1974 with the threat of a merger with the NBA and the potential conflict with the NBA’s Houston Rockets emerged.
In 1966 investors announced the formation of a new basketball league which would compete with the NBA. The new league, named the ABA, would not compete in the same markets, except Los Angeles and New York, but instead compete using teams in smaller market cities. A group of investors purchased a team for Kansas City, which was originally going to be called the Larks. But before the season could start arena conflicts and the potential of an NBA team moving to Kansas City forced the Larks to move to Denver; where they became the Denver Rockets.
The first ever Rockets season started out well for the team, they won 45 games and finished 3rd in the western division. The teams first star was Walter Jones, who would lead them in scoring and be 5th in the ABA that year with a 23-point average. The regular season success did not extend to the post season as the team lost to the New Orleans Buccaneers 3 games to 2.

Complete Article Western Conference preview
Dallas Mavericks
Key Additions: Nick Fazekas, Eddie Jones, Brandon BassKey Losses: Austin Croshere, Pops Mensah-Bonsu
Can Dallas recover mentally from that beating given to them by the Warriors? I think they will, but another question is to ask “Will other coaches emulate the Warriors and will the Mavericks adjust?” Dallas is the favorite to be the best team in the west again this year, and they’ll likely live up to that billing. They still have the MVP Dirk Nowitzki and they’ve added a veteran in Eddie Jones. The Mavericks also added youngster Brandon Bass who is potentially a big sleeper in the free agent market.
Projected Finish: 1st Southwest 64-18
Denver Nuggets
Key Additions: Chucky Atkins, Steven Hunter, Bobby JonesKey Losses: Steve Blake, Reggie Evans
Denver had a mild off-season but they did lose a key component in their offense in Steve Blake. Blake may not be a player many think of as important in an offense. But he was very good for the Nuggets last year and they will miss him. The addition of Chucky Atkins will help but he isn’t the facilitator that Blake is. The biggest key for the Nuggets of corse is Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony. The Nuggets will need both of their stars to play at their peaks if they want to become a threat in the western conference.
Complete Article Eastern Conference Preview Atlanta Hawks
Key Additions: Al Horford, Acie Law IVKey Losses: None
With the Warriors making the playoffs last year the Hawks no own the NBA’s longest post-season drought, unfortunately for the Hawks and their fans it looks as if their drought will continue into next season. The Hawks did add some great talent in Horford and Law but they still lack a lot of depth and a coach who can use the talent that they have.
Projected Finish: 5th Southeast 27-55
Boston Celtics
Key Additions: Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, James PoseyKey Losses: Al Jefferson, Wally Szczerbiak, Gerald Green, Delonte West, Theo Ratliff, Sabastian Telfair.
Perhaps no team in the NBA made the moves the Boston Celtics did this year, the added two all-stars and a solid swing man. The Celtics goal this year will be to win the championship, and they do have the weapons to do that, but their biggest problem will likely be at the point guard spot. Rajon Rando and Eddie House look to be their point guards, Rando is an untested second year player and House is more of a scorer first type of player, nonetheless the Celtics should win the Atlantic this year and have a deep playoff run.
Projected finish: 1st Atlantic 50-32
Complete Article The Early Stars of BasketballWe all know about players like George Mikan, Bob Cousey, Bob Pettit, and Bill Russell, but who were the stars of basketball before these guys? Not many people know the answer to this question, few if any have heard of Bobby McDermott, LeRoy Edwards, Mel Riebe, Gene Englund, or Ed Sadowski. But in a by gone era of basketball history, these guys were the best of the best, they were the true pioneers of professional basketball.
Gene Englund
Englund was a six five forward who played his college ball at the university of Wisconsin. Englund was never really a superstar but he was an above average player who would finish 3rd all time in scoring in the NBL.
England would play one season in the NBA, appearing in 46 games during the leagues inaugural season for both the Boston Celtics and Tri-Cities Blackhawks, but by the time the NBA formed Englunds career was well over with.
