In the 70s, the ABA and the NBA competed for the American basketball market, what was the reason for

The NBA finally put it on its own track in 1976 after nearly a decade of competition with another professional basketball league in the United States, ABA (American Basketball Ascciaton). ABA was founded on February 2, 1967, its appearance is a bit like a group of children's fun game, at the beginning of its establishment, in order to increase the popularity of the league, ABA specially hired 20 years ago NBA famous center "giant" George McCan as president. McCan's unique sense of basketball is unmatched by others, and he stands up to the conservative NBA with an open league stance.

McCan's first event in office was to change the brown basketball to a red and white basketball tricolor ball. As a striking sign of the new alliance. At the same time, the league is open to everyone who can play basketball, especially those who have not yet graduated from college.

The move put pressure on the N.B.A., which had previously been dismissive of the ABA. Because the NBA rules at that time stated that only players who had completed four years after entering college were eligible to join the NBA league. And in order to increase the excitement of the game.

ABA adopted the three-point shot rule and a slam dunk game in the All-Star Game. At that time, the ABA game was characterized by more fast breaks, more passes, three points and dunks in various ways, as long as you can make moves, you can play to your heart's content. These attracted many good players such as "Dr. J" Owen, "Super Spring-Legged" David Thompson, "Iceman" George Gwen and Moses Malone, and ABA also swept the United States with its tricolor ball.

The battle between ABA and the NBA has led to a sharp increase in legal lawsuits over college players and players from both sides who have jumped ship with each other. After nine years of standoff, both sides were overwhelmed by the contract ** that had been raised due to competition. Coupled with the fact that the ABA itself was not well managed, the three-color ball patent was not registered, and the economy was sluggish, it was almost unsustainable by 1976, while the NBA had grown to 18 teams, so the two presidents Debsgal (ABA) and O'Brien (the third president of the NBA) negotiated that the NBA annexed ABA in the name of merger and took over 3 of the teams, (that is, the current Pacers, Denver Gold Nuggets, Marat and New Jersey Nets).

After the NBA formed a large-scale basketball market, it also absorbed the essence from ABA, began to focus on spectacle, and no longer excluded dunks, and from 1979

The NBA's management model is more advanced, the NBA's market is larger, there are more bosses, and each team has its own boss and consortium support!

It seems that now Beijing Aoshen is also playing in this league.

In other words, the United States is still the best in the NFL of football, and the NBA's status in the United States ranks second to this thing.

The status of his "Super Bowl" in the United States is no less than that of the Spring Festival Gala in China! Every artist is even more proud to be on the Super Bowl stage.

The main thing about the NBA is that it has a long history.

The concept of a pay cap was introduced in 1984, and the first negotiations between the NBA league and the players' union were made, and the pay cap was only officially announced if both parties agreed. The NBA's salary cap increases every year, from $26.9 million in 1997-98 to $43.84 million last season and $43.87 million today. So what is a pay cap?

The exact amount of the salary cap is closely related to the total income of the NBA in the previous year. Specifically, this salary cap is based on the total income of the NBA in the previous year, and then take 48 of this total income as the capital of the NBA team to spend money, and then take this post-48 income and divide it by 29 (the total number of NBA teams last season), and the average is the salary cap for the current year, and the total salary spent by each team on players must not exceed this number.

The new salary cap is $49.5 million, which is $5.63 million more than last season.
