If you divvy that up, that means teams over the course of a year would make about $1.5 million. That's twice the salary of a league minimum player! What a killer deal for the NBA, and all they had to do is be the first major pro team sport in the US to sell away what little dignity they had left.

Are you sure?

100 divided by 30 = 3.33... so wouldn't that mean an average of 3.33 million per team?

I'm no math expert.

Perhaps he's calculating a 50/50 split for the teams and players,.

I'm assuming he is counting the season as half a fiscal year, so to get the amount earned per year you would have to divide that 3.33 by 2, getting around 1.6 million per year.

That or he just had a brain fart.

$3(.33)/2 (50/50 BRI split) - the league's cut (likely sizable since they own the rights to all of this) = $1.5 (being generous). It's probably less than that, actually, and for the Jazz, I guarantee it's less than that.

Hooray, Greg can go buy a couple more land-cruisers. Killer deal for the league. A no-brainer.

And for the players? they get to divvy up that money between 400 people, essentially. I'm sure what they gain on average will be a lot more than how much the average player blows on their entourage and gambling on a wild night.

Everyone wins!

Why not?

Well, he is sounding a trumpet. Trumpets can be associated with Jazz music. Makes sense to me.

Wouldn't the money offset any holdbacks? So the higher salaried players benefit more by having more of their money actually paid out to them.

Can you make it so Moroni is standing on an orange B-ball instead of the golden globe?

Putting KFC on them would be racist.

Why is that racist?
