So how much is the NBA making off this?

so far, the only financials out on it are philly, 5MM per year. id peg that as about average, but the lakers or knicks could very well get 20MM a year, guess we will see.

5MM per x 30 teams is 150MM. owners skim 50% of the top, so 75MM. the other 50% goes into the nba revenue pool, which the owners recieve 50-51% of, with 49-50% going to the players in effect by raising the salary cap. unless im confused and this is all nonsense.

so give or take, 3.75 million dollars per team per year.
 
Warriors want advertisers to pay up to $20M for jersey patch

The Golden State Warriors are asking for $15 million to $20 million per year for the rights for a company to put its logo on their jersey starting in the 2017-18 season, sources told ESPN.

The NBA recently approved a three-year pilot program to allow teams to sell 2½-inch by 2½-inch patches on the upper left of jerseys, opposite what will be a swoosh from Nike, which will begin its deal as the league's official apparel-maker after the 2016-17 season.

Only one club has consummated a deal since the league allowed teams to start doing business in mid-May. The Philadelphia 76ers' three-year deal with StubHub is worth $5 million a year, according to sources.

They'll get it, especially after moving from the Eastbay to SF. #lightyearsahead
 
Since Seattle doesn't have a team, might it be a sponsor from there instead of just Portland?

It will definitely be a national or international brand that buys it. The majority of the brand recognition from NBA fans for the jersey logo will come from people outside of the NW, via SportsCenter highlights, games broadcast in China, etc. It would be a waste of money for a company that only sells products or provides services in the Portland area (or even just the NW) to buy it. And those type of corporations typically wont be able to afford it either.

Who cares about that really, that's no big deal. They have done this for years if not decades where I live and nobody gives a shit. And I'm talking about a big ass logo on the front center, not a little patch like the NBA want to do
 
What would be cool is if the jerseys with ads were $20 cheaper then the jerseys w/o ads that they sell in the fan shop. The focus of putting ads on jerseys should be a way to benefit the fans instead of the owners. They won the lottery with the new TV contract, they don't need the jersey ad revenue.
 
an interesting thought...if some teams are getting 20MM plus, this will raise the salary cap disproportionately to the teams that receive less.

I don't believe that revenue is counted towards the cap. If that were the case an owner like Paul Allen could have a special bar in the arena that charges $100k per drink, he could go in there, buy 10 drinks a game and raise the team's salary cap by $20mill a season.

well, i was just kinda musing, but if the revenue goes into the nba revenue pot, then that will affect the salary cap for all teams, even though one team might net 4x as much actual revenue from the ads.

not sure if this makes sense.

I just want PA to buy me a $100,000 drink.
 
For all the hate this gets I doubt fans care in a few years. Look at Timbers jerseys; where's the outrage over the Alaska Airlines logo?

That's the whole reason I'll never buy one. :dunno: I'd wear one but I don't work for Alaskan Airlines.
 
Crabbe should pay to have his picture of the jerseys instead of the patch.
 
I haven't heard this mentioned before but all teams share the ad money generated. So even if the Warriors get 20 MIL a year then they still split that with the other teams. So really not much incentive to go crazy on asking price if you are only keeping 1/30th of it. The 76ers (who admittedly suck) only got 5 MIL a year but they are the only team that has actually signed a deal so far.

Each team keeps half of the revenue they generate from the jersey patch and the other half goes to the league’s revenue-sharing pool for all teams.
 
How crazy would it be then if individual players could start getting sponsored like Nascar and Boxing. Imagine the difference in real estate price from LeBron's jersey vs Luis Montero!

Montero would get that Mitsubishi money though.

That'd be interesting. Player & team split the $ & it was factored into player contracts a little. Could help lower player contracts to a more reasonable level.
