Why is New York called the basketball holy land of NBA?
Hello, Hello everyone, I am Phil with a dark volute. Why is New York a basketball holy place in people’s hearts? In addition to the streetball holy place in New York, , Manhattan , the north , Harlem District , this answer was shown yesterday. Today, three other attractions near , Fifth Avenue, , which are concentrated in Manhattan's commercial center, are also part of the attractions, namely , NBA headquarters on Fifth Avenue, NBA store on the side and Madison Square Garden---. By the way, let me say that all New York in the article refers to New York City, not New York State. Just like there is a saying that France is all countryside except Paris, other places in New York State do lack big books.
In the hearts of Americans, football is the most influential sport. If basketball can compete with football, there are only two places: New York and California . New York is the city with the strongest basketball culture in the United States. You can find a public basketball court every time you walk, but it may be related to the venue. This place is really valuable. Compared with California or other areas, there is really not much room to build football stadiums. Especially in California, where tycoons can play ball directly in their backyard and garage.
In the basketball world, too many legendary characters and legendary stories were born here. Until today, the legend continues without interruption. Looking at the basketball superstars who have emerged from New York, it is not difficult to see the importance of New York's position in the basketball world. From Jabbar to Jordan , from Ate (or Ci Shiping ) to Anthony , New York has indeed sent too many talents to the NBA.
Among the many New York NBA superstars, the most famous one is undoubtedly "Flying Man" Jordan. Although Jordan's more tags were posted in North Carolina or Chicago , he was indeed born in Brooklyn in New York City. When Jordan was born, his parents worked in New York, but not long after, Jordan's family moved out of New York. But as an NBA superstar born in New York, Jordan still has a deep impression of New York. I remember there is a joke that the greatest basketball player in history is New Yorker, and the greatest basketball player in history in Chicago is Obama (after all, he is the second hometown in addition to the birthplace...)
has introduced too much background knowledge, so let's take a look at it. On Fifth Avenue in New York, there is a building called the Olympic Building. This building looks no different from other skyscrapers. The first floor is just shops and restaurants, but the NBA's headquarters is in this building. In other words, NBA president Xiao Hua should be working here. However, this building is not open to the public. The guards in the hall will prevent tourists from entering and visiting, so I don’t know which office Xiao Hua works in. However, if you have any dissatisfaction next time, you will send it here if you write a complaint letter, so as to avoid being quarrel with each other in various groups.
is not far from the headquarters. It is the NBA store. It is the first physical store in the NBA and the only physical store in the United States and the global main store. There are so many things inside. is also so expensive. Since Phil has never been to stores in Beijing and Shanghai, we cannot compare them here, just introduce them. Although the store has three floors, the store is not large, and the first floor is the smallest, mainly selling the jerseys of the players who are the most popular in and their various team uniforms. On the second floor, it sells all women's and children's jerseys and supplies, as well as some household items such as towels and toys. The basement floor has the largest area, and it sells various indoor and outdoor NBA equipment for men: jerseys, sneakers, hats and watches; these prices are not cheap. In addition, there is a souvenir area on this floor, which sells all the treasures of the town shop, and are all jerseys or basketballs signed by many famous players. Phil thinks the MVP inside should be the signature ball of the entire Mengyi team.
This store should be able to meet your needs, and from time to time, for example, in early September, the rookies who have just signed in Knicks come to support the store and sign free of charge to customers that day.
NBA store is Empire State Building , and not far to the west of the Empire State Building is Madison Square Garden
In addition to cultivating many NBA superstars, New York has also created a legendary venue for American basketball, that is, Madison Square Garden, known as "Mecca in the Basketball World". This stadium not only complements New York, it is one of the iconic landscapes of New York and is also the most famous stadium in the world. In addition to the Oracle Arena of , Warriors, , this should be the second oldest stadium in NBA history. Although the Knicks have long lost their former glory and become a bad team, there is nothing we can do about the fact that their market value is higher than that of the Warriors. The basketball market in New York is indeed very large. By the way, the previous article introduced the ticket price for the Christmas battle, the ticket price for the All-Star . Here we will introduce the ticket price for the finals to let everyone see the league where the money is piled: this year's finals, the front row of the Cavaliers Speed Loan Arena, about 5 rows in the middle of the stadium, the ticket price is $13,700. VIP sideline tickets are $18,565. Oracle is even more expensive, with the front row selling for $15,999, and the ticket prices for VIP first and second rows are $36,843 and $35,205 respectively.
has previously left a message in the comment section saying that season tickets are only included in the regular season and not the playoffs. However, as a member, you can get the order of buying playoff tickets in advance and get the goal hall first (the probability of asking for signatures is greatly increased). The Knicks have 42 season tickets, and the seats in the first floor stands are roughly $200 per average, and the ones in half a season will rise to around 400. To be honest, if the first level of $400 is Christmas, or the Warriors, Rockets or the Celtics, Thunder or even Lakers is still worth it, but the eastern and western teams will be met twice a season. It would be fine if the Warriors Rockets and other teams are good. For the remaining dozen games, you have to spend hundreds of dollars to watch the Nets, Hawks, and the Kings. . . I wasted my time and I should pay me almost the same amount of money. But even so, tickets will still be sold. For example, let’s compare: I remember that I went to Atlanta to pay attention to the 76ers who played and rebuilt in the 2015 season. The lowest ticket price was 9 yuan. . . Wait until you have a parking fee outside the arena, it costs 20 yuan. And I ranked fourth in the East that year, and I bought a few All-Star tickets cheaper than you. I have to say that poverty limits my imagination, but according to the current Knicks operation, even if he is bad until 2020, he still cannot enter the Eastern Conference Finals. In addition to the instant Lin Chuangkuan, the team's recent glory can only stay in the Ewing era in the last century.
