    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS REVISITING THE SUPERSTAR EXTERNALITY: LEBRON’S ‘DECISION’ AND THE EFFECT OF HOME MARKET SIZE ON EXTERNAL VALUE ANDREW DAVID BRYANT SPRING 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Mathematics and Economics with honors in Economics Reviewed and approved* by the following: Edward Coulson Professor of Economics Thesis Supervisor David Shapiro Professor of Economics Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT The movement of superstar players in the National Basketball Association from small- market teams to big-market teams has become a prominent issue. This was evident during the recent lockout, which resulted in new league policies designed to hinder this flow of talent. The most notable example of this superstar migration was LeBron James’ move from the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Miami Heat. There has been much discussion about the impact on the two franchises directly involved in this transaction. However, the indirect impact on the other 28 teams in the league has not been discussed much. This paper attempts to examine this impact by analyzing the effect that home market size has on the superstar externality that Hausman & Leonard discovered in their 1997 paper. A road attendance model is constructed for the 2008-09 to 2011-12 seasons to compare LeBron’s “superstar effect” in Cleveland versus his effect in Miami. An increase of almost 15 percent was discovered in the LeBron superstar variable, suggesting that the move to a bigger market positively affected LeBron’s fan appeal.

  • By Joe Kaiser ESPN It Took Danny Ferry Exactly Seven Days in His
    By Joe Kaiser ESPN Smith had a great 2011 -12, but he is an unrestricted free agent after this season. It took Danny Ferry exactly seven days in his new role as the Atlanta Hawks' president of basketball operations and general manager to completely change the face of the franchise. His ability to swiftly orchestrate separate deals to part with high-priced veterans Joe Johnson and Marvin Williams signaled a commitment to rebuilding and shed as much as $77 million still owed to the two veterans beyond next season. Fast-forward two-and-a-half months to today, and Ferry's rebuilt roster has only a handful of contracts that go beyond the 2012-13 season: • Al Horford : Signed through 2015-16. • Lou Williams : Signed through 2013-14. • John Jenkins : 2012 first-round pick. • Mike Scott : 2012 second-round pick. • Jeff Teague : Due to become a restricted free agent at season's end, barring an extension. Notice one big name we didn't mention: Josh Smith . The tantalizingly talented, yet often frustrating, forward is among the many Hawks entering the final year of their deals, and he represents arguably the biggest challenge for Ferry to date: what to do with Smith. If handled correctly, this could be the next step toward eventually turning the Hawks into a perennial playoff contender. Mishandled, and this could undo everything good that came out of the trades of Johnson and Williams. So the question is, what's the smarter move for Ferry and the Hawks? a) Negotiate an extension that will keep Smith in Atlanta for the long term.

  • Administration of Barack H. Obama, 2010 Remarks at a Democratic
    Administration of Barack H. Obama, 2010 Remarks at a Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and Representative Ron Klein Dinner in Miami, Florida October 11, 2010 Hello, everybody. Please have a seat, have a seat. It is good to be back, Miami. This is quite a view, Alonzo. [Laughter] To the entire Mourning family, Tracy and Alonzo, Trey, Myka, Alijah, thank you so much for your hospitality and this spectacular setting. We are grateful to you. To Representative Chris Van Hollen, who is here, the chairman of the DCCC, everybody give him a big round of applause. Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz is here. Representative Ron Klein is here. And we're going to get him back in Congress. Representative Kathy Castor—is Kathy here? Give her a round of applause anyway, even if she's not here. And I know Representative Ted Deutch is here, and his beautiful family. In addition, I want to say that Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, I wish you the best of luck when you're not playing the Bulls. [Laughter] I just want to be clear about that. I like you. [Laughter] But when you're playing the Bulls I'm rooting against you. [Laughter] I am stunned that Alonzo let a Laker in here. [Laughter] But he said that Magic transcends party lines—and so we're glad to have Magic in the house. Now, I want to just say a little bit about Ron, because so much of the reason we're here is to make sure that he continues to do the outstanding work that he's doing on behalf of south Florida.

NBA LeBron James to Return to Cleveland Superstar Announces He Will Rejoin Cavaliers Four Years After Bolting By BEN COHEN Updated July 11, 2014 7:18 p.m. ET LeBron James throws up powder moments before game four of the NBA Eastern Conference Finals in 2009. Associated Press LeBron James, the singular talent in his generation of newly powerful professional basketball players, has decided to return to the hometown team he once spurned, a move that will rearrange the NBA's competitive furniture for years to come. James ended weeks of speculation about his basketball future Friday by announcing he will sign with the Cleveland Cavaliers, the team he played for in the first seven years of his career. James left in 2010 for Miami, where he won two NBA titles with the Heat. That decision four years ago, which was broadcast in a television special called "The Decision," resulted in a backlash against James in a city that had once revered him. He was cast as a villain as soon as he said he would "take my talents to South Beach" to join fellow superstars Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. http://online.wsj.com/articles/lebron-james-to-return-to-cleveland-1405096366#printMode 1/4 7/12/2014 LeBron James to Return to Cleveland - WSJ Friday's decision was more understated and felt far less engineered.
