Amidst a work stoppage, now is a good time to take a step back and assess how the NBA is doing as a whole.As a huge NBA fan myself, I’m going to touch upon many important topics that effect the well-being of the league. And there is certainly a lot going on.Wholesale Jersey First off, let me start off by saying that the quality of players in the league today is outstanding. There are superstars on top of superstars. And the players are very marketable. It seems like every all-star has some sort of endorsement deal. Even the ones who aren’t the most popular are heavily endorsed, such as LeBron James.The variety of superstars is also exciting. We have young players who will be in the league for a long time, such as LeBron, Dwight Howard, Kevin Durant, Dwyane Wade, Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony, Amare Stoudemire, Derrick Rose, LaMarcus Aldridge, Deron Williams, Rajon Rondo, Russell Westbrook, Kevin Love, John Wall, Blake Griffin and more. That’s a pretty long list, huh?Even more so, there are still some great veteran players who are future Hall of Famers. Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, Steve Nash, Dirk Nowitzki and Paul Pierce headline that list. Watching these guys play with and against the youngsters is awesome.The MLB lacks true superstars that bring people to the ballpark solely to watch them. If Blake Griffin is coming to your hometown, you want to go to the arena to see him, even if the Clippers aren’t any good. Baseball doesn’t have very many of the those types of electrifying players or personalities. NFL Wholesale And with the exception of Crosby and Ovechkin, neither does the NHL. The NBA is exploding with these types of players, and that is a great sign.In addition, the NBA is tremendously popular. Now, that is subject to a lockout. But we’ll touch upon that later. Remember how many people tuned in to watch The Decision? And the NBA playoffs are always a big hit on television, particularly the NBA Finals. While walking around cities, you will see NBA jerseys all over the place.
