Knicks overtake Lakers as NBA's most valuable franchise


Posted Jan 26 2011 7:50PM

NEW YORK (AP) -- The New York Knicks have overtaken the Los Angeles Lakers as the NBA's most valuable franchise, and 17 of the 30 teams are estimated to have lost money last season, according to Forbes.

The Knicks' value rose 12 percent from $586 million to $655 million, the magazine said Wednesday in its annual evaluation. The rise was attributed to increased ticket sales and sponsorships at Madison Square Garden.

The Lakers went up 6 percent from $607 million to $643 million.

Chicago was third at $511 million, followed by Boston ($452 million), Houston ($443 million) and Dallas ($438 million).

After signing Lebron James, the Miami Heat had the biggest percentage rise, a 17 percent increase to $425 million, good for seventh place. Following the loss of James, Cleveland dropped a league-high 26 percent to $355 million.

The average value of a franchise increased 1 percent to $369 million, down from $379 million two years ago.

Forbes estimated teams averaged $6.1 million in operating income. It said the total of teams that lost money is the most since the lockout-shortened 1998-99 season.

And that is why ladies and gentlemen, Russ is not better than Rose IMO.

7/19? 8 turnovers? Gross. I'd say maybe he had an off game, sure, but against the Timberwolves? :/

This season, he's just not better, IMO. A nice stretch sure, but Rose has had a nice season.

Sure Rose is having a better year than him but he is also asked to do more...People forgetting that he carried the team pretty successfully for the first month half two months whil KD was struggling.

Another night at the Target Center

I'm not even mad at KD for those shots. At least this game was close all night. Wish Love could have hit that shot at the end of regulation.
