    A 48% increase in revenue!? Holy shit, that is an insane amount of growth in two years.

    Pretty amazing turnaround in this economy, though I found it interesting the we're still under the league average in revenue of $120 million. How are all the other franchises making that much money when I see thousands of empty seats at most arenas? Unless the Lakers, Celtics and Cavaliers are really driving up that average number...

    Large markets usually garner larger television and advertising rates.
