This will be short and sweet. Is it ethical for NBA superstars, including the Celtics Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum, to get supermax deals in the range of $50-60 million per year? My favorite definition of ETHICS is: The greatest good - for the most people - for the longest time Pro basketball's main function , despite becoming Big Buiness, is to supply entertainment and serve as a pleasant diversion for fans. The NBA does just that for millions of fans, and has been around for a long time. Salaries have soared in the League, and if that is what is required to maintain the NBA in a healthy, successful, entertaining status, then perhaps that answers my initial question - particularly if wealthy players give back to the communities and the world in the form of some kind of aid. "Greatest good-for the most people-for the longest time". Long live the NBA, which hopefully will not self-destruct under the heavy weight of the money it takes in.
