Amar'e really capitalizing on NY for some outside business ventures. He's also put out a clothing line and a cologne since he's signed, no?

Man's not dumb.

Durant leads the NBA in endorsement dollars. NYC might help a bit in that there are many adverstising firms etc, but I think the extra $$ chances by playing in NY are way overblown.

Being a top 3 player always does wonders for endorsements.

I think if you become a star in NY it helps, and obviously you will get more exposure here so that is a plus from a marketing standpoint. But if you already have an established brand I'm not sure how much it helps. It is a big stage but most people can't handle it so why risk it if you have a good thing somewhere else?

Possible title:

"Amare the and Eric the vengeful fire extinguisher"

A tale of a sleeping fire extinguisher who just wanted to be left alone!

Eric!

Where'd you see that? If I had to take a guess, I'd still say the leader is LeBron, maybe Kobe.
