Last year £786 million in wages alone was paid to 2,347 professional footballers, that's roughly equivalent to the GDP of Mongolia in 2005. Of that sum, £583 million went to Premiership players. And the likes of Steven Gerrard and David Beckham are reported to earn over £100,000 A WEEK – that's more than £5 million a year - not bad for playing a bit footy.

Because no one except a few people really care about basketball anymore.  The reason salaries are so high is tv contracts, which will probably be lower next time since they are based on ratings.  Until basketball cleans up its act, and game, ratings will continue to fall.

I don't think its nonsense. It really doesn't matter to the players because all they want is MONEY. Trading in the nba doesn't occur as much as football.

If were talking about the current crop of NBA players, based on Kevin Martin's performance, I have to agree with you.\n\nMartin has a lot to look forward to in the off-season as it is a contract year.  I'm pretty sure that he is going to get a big bump in his paycheck which currently pays him a million.\n\nHope this helps.

You bring up a good point, but yeah the NBA isn't so much about the sport now, its about how much money the people make off entertaining people. If they lose that ability it will go down the drain.

The highest paid player right now is Jaromir Jagr @ $8.36 million.  The league minimum is $450k.\n\nIt hard to say what the average is because of bonuses and such, but it's somewhere between $1.28 and 1.46 million for the '05-'06 season.

Yes there is.  Depending on how many teams in your league make the playoffs it'll start with two or three weeks left in the NBA's regular season.

I'm fairly sure Toronto (the only Canadian NBA team) pays its players in US dollars, so they have the same salary cap. They just have to deal with the exchange rate before they pay the team.

This sounds like a case a consulting firm might ask a prospective employee. Here's an estimate:\n\n- Let's say the teams run down to each side of the court ~80 times/game for a total of 160 trips down the court.\n- There are probably an average of 10 dribbles each trip down the court (more when they burn clock, less when there is a turnover, a quick foul, or a quick pass downcourt).\n- So the ball would hit the floor 1,600 times per game.\n\nYou could also just count for about 4 minutes of a game and multiply it to get an estimate of the total over the whole game. That should be fairly accurate.

Salary can mean monthly or annual pay.  It also means that you are paid a set amount, for example $50,000 a year, to work regardless of how many hours you work a week.
