Suns vs Lakers - SPOILER

How is the potential with Asian teams huge? 1) Their standard of play and talent is vastly inferior save for some high paid imports 2) out of everything we've ever done with China they've NEVER shown any genuine interest in the NBL 3) what money do you even expect to come from Asian teams dipping their toes here for a month and having their asses handed to them?


1. Standard of play is irrelevant the Chinese love basketball, they think they're good at it and they've got a lot of money to burn.

2. They haven't shown genuine interest yet in part because of the logistics but one or two of their cashed up teams based here for a month or so who knows especially with the current political climate they would probably like nothing more then to stick it right up us.

3. The asses handed to them aspect would be in dispute as they buy up all the best imports outside of the NBA so the games would likely be closer than expected but the sponsorship possibilities are endless not just for the Chinese teams with their sponsors seeking exposure here but all of our teams being able to sign separate sponsorship deals on jerseys being exposed to 100 million or so watching in China.

Seriously ME think about all the exposure of your "Fukc off we're full!" stickers on the front of jerseys, the possibilities are endless.
