is what the nba says on this, quote, with nba teams now in the process of welcoming fans back into theirll play the national and them in keeping with long-standing legal policies. it has been a long-standing league policy for the national anthem to be played. however in recent weeks and recent months, it is my understanding anyway you can decide what is best for your team on pregame activities. that is just i want to make sure people understood the lay of the land especially when it comes to something like free speech, it is the nba policy and they are going forward with that that it will be played. just wanted to get your reaction on that. >> the nba's a private association of different teams and they have a right to collectively make those decisions. i do think that a lot of fans were kind of upset with the drama that has occurred over the past few years around the national anthem, the kneeling and things like that and i think the nba is responding to that and generally a good example of people basically voting with their feet and their pocketbooks and sending a message saying we want

why is their sudden interest in investing in the nba?: private equity has not really gone into the nfl yet. really, the issue at stake is just how expensive the nba has got. you have a lot of very wealthy people buying teams as sort of a vanity project. a source familiar with the nba thinking, buying minority stakes is hard because they are so expensive. that means if they want funding, they have had to turn to institutional players. last year, the nba approved private capital, they approved specifically dial capital. the reason that on the private equity side you would be interested in the nba, that yes valuations are expensive, but this is almost like a fixed income asset. you have these content streaming rights that will continually pay out for you. not to mention that in four years, the broadcasting rights contract comes up. traditionally, players like disney bid on the sort of things. in four years, you will have amazon, netflix, streamers. they are predicting a bidding war, meaning that the value of these broadcasting rights is goi

the people i spoke with describe the nba moving slowly.goes having institutional money for they allow a big rush in. if you are a cvc or guile capital, the reason this is so attractive even though it is painfully expensive is it is a fixed income asset. you are buying the content. consistent income streams. keep in mind come in four years from now, there will be another bidding to get the rights to the games to broadcast. right now, it is turner and disney. in four years, you will have amazon and netflix bidding. the thought is that we will have an all out bidding war so people invested in minority stakes will see the value of that content suddenly become a lot more expensive. matt: the problem for the nba, for the league and for fans is it is purely a profit thing if you have private capital involved. whereas for jerry jones or mark cuban or steve ballmer, there is a spirit that is worth something . you cannot tell you that if you are a private equity fund. on the other hand, they need the money. covid has reduced ticket sales to nothing.
