How do you know net take home rate? Do you consider for example that us citizens have to pay taxes in europe and in the us? Or that taxes differ in different countries considering family situation?
It would also be nice to show players from the NBA that get the same actual amount of money with the top paid in Europe. Just to compare the qualities.
Sure, the question is, would these players be warming benches in the NBA or rather be a star in Europe. Bring in money in this conversation, and that's the point of the video. I don't know anything about the Moroccan league, but I would bet that the players there are not on the level to get an NBA contract.
Sasha is lighting the beam in Euroleague. He didn't have enough tattoos and social media followers for the NBA. He must be so happy back in Europe. Can you blame him.
You should also consider two other factors. The first one is that the life expenses are much lower in Europe, especially from country to country. For example, a home in Athens would cost just a fraction compared to what K. Nunn would have to spend to buy/rent one in Miami or Los Angeles. The second factor is that, for example, in Panathinaikos, players are taking tax-free money under the table. Working as a waitor in the past in a small city that used to play in the Greek Basketball Championship highest division, one day before the game against Panathinaikos, a former player paid me with a 500€ bank note, and I was amazed. I told him WTF is this since they are extremely rare, and he told me that these are the "black" - tax-free under the table - money from Giannakopoulos (Panathinaikos owner) 😂.
Nba players make millions more in endorsements. Just being a role player on the same team with lebron can get u a signature shoe like Matthew, Del Vova and Austin Reeves.
Bottom line for this video: Even when accounting to the gross/net factor, salaries for top players in the NBA are 8-10 times higher than in the Euroleague. Top 10 NBA stars make $49-55 million gross = $25-27 net (assuming 50% tax) = Euro 23-25 million.
@@willclark5704 bubble is not in player wages but nba itself. team values are increasing incredibly but their incomes are not. this also affects the player salaries.
Of course athens is better. It’s a bustling metropolis with more than 2000 years of history and culture. Milwaukee is some ugly, suburban sprawl, with no good foor, nor culture. Not to mention the dreadful midwestern climate with their -30 degree winters…. C’mon man!
The Greeks write that the director of the Euroleague is still the informal boss of Zalgiris and that nothing can be done in the club without his consent. - no transfer, no big decision. They even go so far as to allegedly participate in negotiations with agents about hiring new players for the Lithuanian giant. The story is not over, but there is another part - the one that casts an additional shadow on Moteijunas. In order to transfer the ownership structure of Zalgiris to Jankunas, he opened a new company called UAB Zalgiris. He took ownership Jankunas, but Gazeta obtained documents showing that the Euroleague director still owns a 55 percent stake in the company UAB Zalgiris KLUB, which owns the Zalgirio Arena. He remained the main shareholder of the mentioned company, through which he took effective control over London to Lajos - the team competing in the Eurocup!
I can't imagine Zalgiris being the League's favourite team. I actually like Zalgiris. And I think it would be nice if London gets more into the Euroleague product. It's the last fort that needs to be taken. I enjoy the Paris run too, even though they beat us. And even though I think they go a bit far with the lights, celebs, music and celebrating.

Funny you decided to show Nunn in the thumbnail instead of Vezenkov. 3.7 million euros a year contract. Prejudice. Again... But teams are built, not bought according to the Port boys. It's okay. We'll talk on the court in May. Like last year.
@@BasketNews_com You know exactly what I mean, brother. As if only money buys success. If you want to show something about Panathinaikos, why don't you make a video about the biggest bargains? I bet Grant tops it.
@@13miska13 I am also better in writing in English, if you want to compare. Video's fine, but I'd change the thumbnail. That's all I am saying. It's designed like Nunn's being lured by the money.

I’ll do that today 🔜
Edited: Done! ruclips.net/video/r-j0Wb2vf_Q/видео.html/
net salary in the nba really also depends on the state you play in. It varies A LOT
Damn I used to watch larkin when he was at university of Miami. I didn’t know he was still active, crazy.
He’s amazing
Bro they making good money, players get paid in the Morrocan league 2000$ a year
Sure, the question is, would these players be warming benches in the NBA or rather be a star in Europe. Bring in money in this conversation, and that's the point of the video.

I'm pretty sure that the Euroleague has much less ego than the NBA too, thats a huge bonus in itself.
Less endorsements also.
Well yeah because nobody cares about basketball in Europe
Tho he plays in the EuroCup Patrick Beverley makes good money!
Sasha is lighting the beam in Euroleague. He didn't have enough tattoos and social media followers for the NBA. He must be so happy back in Europe. Can you blame him.
It hurts your brain to think that your idol was just a janitor in the NBA doesn’t it 😢. You will get over it eventually
@K-cee-M Sasha can now play basketball the right way with the righr people.Not a bunch of immature, spolied and entitled American dumb jocks.
bogdan bogdanovic doesnt have tattoos either but hes in the nba lmao
@@konnichiyawa1360 I think that number of tattoos that Serbian players on Olympics have is zero.
So happy to step on an actual basketball court again. And play actual basketball minutes. 🤣
Well, those guys are superstar in Euro league.

Theyre not comparing them to the top nba salaries you dunce
Cool video
Think fans probably don't realize after taxes and agents fees, NBA players would probably take home a little over 40% of their contract at best
So you are telling me Bronny James earns more than 95% of dudes in euro league 🤦🏽♂️
Depends. The tax in California is terrible
Nah he gets around 4.35 million a year so he’s actually making a lot more then most European players
@@Fastbreak0193No. His contract is $1.15m this year.
He’s not lacking in money besides basketball too
Sasha should’ve went to Dallas
How about Fournier's salary?
Also they don't have to play as many games per season, which extends their careers enabling them to earn more. Something people don't think about.
there is also a financial bubble in the nba which will explode and drop the salaries lower.
there isnt a bubble player pay is based on % of income the league makes
@@willclark5704 bubble is not in player wages but nba itself. team values are increasing incredibly but their incomes are not. this also affects the player salaries.
Better cities?? Come on! Isn't Giannis happier in a garden spot like Milwaukee vs Athens? Particularly in January?
Of course athens is better. It’s a bustling metropolis with more than 2000 years of history and culture. Milwaukee is some ugly, suburban sprawl, with no good foor, nor culture. Not to mention the dreadful midwestern climate with their -30 degree winters…. C’mon man!

all of them are overpaid. When you think about it, they get pain millions to play a game.

Where’s Evan Fournier
Building houses, by the looks of it.
may not in this list because he earns 2 million?
