Recently, Curry participated in the "360 with Speedy" program and talked about the players' income.
Host: "Now, you'll hear about contracts signed by many NBA players. Alexander just signed a sky-high contract with an annual salary of more than $70 million. Considering the value you bring to the league and the team, do you think your salary is low?"
Curry: "I think because of the current structure of the labor-capital agreement, we can't participate in equity distribution. Well, that's important because it's a partnership with the team owner, the league, and we're at a disadvantage in terms of revenue, right? Those The numbers may sound amazing, but no matter which period you compare to the present, the league may have increased by about 10 times. So, part of the reason why I say that our salary is low is that we cannot participate in equity distribution during the game. After all, you definitely want to get a share of this growth."
"I know we are lucky to make a living by playing basketball, and the income is quite considerable. I think these are worth it because basketball is a special 'commodity'. This is a special industry, and it may always exist. , because its entertainment value is always online. However, I sincerely hope that the relevant regulations can be adjusted as soon as possible so that players can benefit more from the appreciation of team equity, league valuation, etc. I think we deserve these."
Host: "Think about it, players like you, or players like Tim Duncan and Dirk Nowitzki, who have played for a team for many years, is equivalent to jointly 'building' this 'company' but cannot make a profit from it. This is obviously not true. And I believe that this is actually mutually beneficial to both sides."
Curry: "I understand that there are many complex issues, such as salary caps and competitive fairness considerations. After all, the league hopes that every market has a fair opportunity. I understand all of these, but I still hope that there will be more discussions on how to achieve equity distribution. You see, the team's valuation is already ridiculously high and too exaggerated. Among the richest people in the world, almost no one can buy a team alone, so there are so many investment groups appearing - this shows that this industry is indeed of great value."
