so remember earlier when i said that the new owner of the lakers would turn them and dodgers into 20 billion? well i misspoke; hes gonna make them like 20 billion each watch; i was doing some calculations and just look at this shit; Korea has like 70 plus million people; Thailand 70 plus million people; Japan 120 plus million people; Mexico has 129 million people; Venezula has 28 plus million people; DR has 11 plus million people; Cuba has 11 plus million people; and Puerto Rico has 3 plus million people; thats like a total of 440 plus million people from major baseball countries; that doesnt include the US or Canada population; doesnt include China and or Europe either; :eek2:; so lets say he gets 5% of those major baseball countries population to sign up for a streaming package of Dodgers and Lakers games plus all other Dodgers and Lakers shit; throw in the other teams as well; thats like 20 fucking million people, not including US Canada CHina Russia and Europe lol lol; lets say those 20 million pay $10 a month:eek2: thats 2 billion a year in revenue:eek2:; not including money from all these corporations that would sign up for adds and shit:eek2:; on the low end thats his investment back for the Lakers in 5 years!!!!:eek2::eek2:; they gonna be worth 20 plus billion easily within 10 years book it!!! I cant figure out why there arent more streaming packages sold for sports like this; maybe my mind different but that dude is gonna be killing it; and again none of these figures include the US Canada China Europe; he could easily make 4 billion a year plus off these teams easily!!!!!!!

@playahaitian @DC_Dude @jawnswoop @REDLINE @chemist @jack walsh13 @Costanza @where all my lakers and dodgers and LA niggas at??
DAMN great breakdown and analysis and you’re probably right!

Yeah this was definitely about getting that "Global Money".






Todd Booehly who also went in on the deal when they purchased the 27% stake in the team in 2021 explains essentially why they are making the moves they are making...Not sure what percentage he will own once the deal is done, but I thought his interview with forbes and bloomberg explained alot.

Remember when everyone got mad at LeBron for not sh*tting on China?

Funny how that all works out now huh?

big time shit right there bro!! hunger games!!
 
This was one of the smartest statements by an NBA star ever.


i hate that the public even knows there salaries shit is crazy; if thats the case put everyone salaries on blast!! everyone from the lawyers accountants investors concession stand workers everyone !!! shit is bullshit...
 
Im not sure what you are saying about the model; AD force himself to LA to so called play with LBJ; oh wait you talking about old CBA vs new CBA??
Naw I’m saying Lebron was going to teams and they were trading assets to put talent around him. They got AD by trading Lonzo, Hart, etc. Lebron has always had assets to trade…I don’t see much now. I guess Reeves? But he wants some paper so I don’t know….

I hate that shit too. It should be as quiet as them streaming numbers.

Naw pimp, LBJ went to Lakers for one main thing; he wanted hollywood business; thats it; Lakers were shit and still have been shit; they had one covid year and thats it...
 
Fam, viewership isnt down; viewership doesnt just consist of TV; thats a thing for these talking nerds and sports idiots; thats all it is; if people wasnt watching the NBA they wouldnt have gotten Amazon NBC and Disney to sign and pay 11 years and 76 billion dollars!!!!
I’m not talking about streaming I’m talking about traditional metrics. It’s natural for viewership to be down with so many people using social media, streaming, etc.

That doesn’t mean there’s no money to be made. Traditional viewership is down.

That waa some Wharton sh*t I was not fully prepared for

Bros, i seen the shit when he bought the Lakers; but I was watching the Dodgers and KC today; and im looking in the crowd and im seeing all these dam Japanese people in the crowd; and im like i know these mofos dont live in KC lol; so then it hit me; I mean I already knew Lakers and Dodgers are global brands; but Asia and Mexico loves these brands; shit is an untap market for sports streaming; i mean everywhere is really; and then i started looking at populations and remembering how those Dodgers Cubs games were at the beginning of the baseball season in Japan; and then i said OH SHIT!!!!!!

I’m not sure what you mean? They traded for AD and won a ring lol? Lebron had Hollywood with or without Lakers. We talking about LeBron. Listen to him talk he straight up says he cares about his legacy. He ain’t out here trying to play with a loser.

Im saying I dont think he went to LA as a basketball move; to be honest if he had stayed in Cleveland that team was better than the Lakers; and again Lakers havent done shit since that one year; they were shitty before and afterwards, still are; so I dont think hes making moves for basketball at this point; I think its all off court business; even with his son...
 
yep! and it's always the NBA in ratings conversation .....did hockey even have a season
Right fam; its because its a Black face sport; no other team sport you can get close to players like the NBA; you constantly see their faces all over the place; and they represent more because of endorsement powers!! the ratings shit is just hate; and the reason why i say that is because the people who bring up ratings; they know its a farce...

I agree he for sure went to LA for reasons outside of basketball but he still wants to build on his legacy. Because truthfully that Laker team remember was young but had potential. They had Randle, Hart, Caruso, Ball, Ingram….had a young Zubacs but can’t fault them for not seeing him become what he became. I say that to say they shipped them out to get Bron AD to compete.
 
I didn't really he was putting up those types of numbers in Philly. He might get that lol.
He did it because everyone got hurt. But I always felt with more time he could showcase more. I was more pissed that Mavs traded him than Luka. At least we got AD for Luka. We got a damn Martin twin for Grimes. But with as well as he played maybe we don’t get Flag.
 
No i dont.

That man woke up this day ran a mile sharpened his axe changed a tire called 2 women one from Cali the other from the 6 banged them out for 2 hours while playing Luthor on repeat shot 100 free throws recorded a Tedtalk and THEN posted the business proposal

That's why they call him @Day_Carver

Yup and i noticed it when Rui got drafted by the wizards.

I mean the team went all in to make sure the Japanese audience was informed about any and everything around him even hiring a Japanese media person.

Buss definitely was not going to put the resources needed to capture that global market but everything I’ve read about Walter nothing is to big of a price for him.
