[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 835458"] There are a couple of problems with this: 1) Golden State is not a small market team. The metro area population is ranked somewhere around 5th. - 11th. depending on how tighly you circumscribe the area. This is not an Oakland team. This is a San Franciso/Oakland/San Jose (Silicon Valley) team. [URL]https://www.thoughtco.com/largest-metropolitan-areas-1435135[/URL] [URL]https://www.currentresults.com/Weather-Extremes/US/largest-cities-list.php[/URL] The Milwaukee metro area by the same measures ranks 30th. - 39th. 2) spotrac.com estimates GS's luxury tax bill for this season at $51.5 million. The Bucs, on the other hand, are paying no luxury tax. 3) Revenue disparities will probably go up as GS moves into their spanking new arena in San Franciso. There are many insanely rich individuals and corporations in this market. You would expect private box and courtside prices to be astronomical. Whether this will translate to even more GS salary spending remains to be seen. These owners are paying the entire cost of the arena out of their own pockets which we presume entails debt service.
