I think it's the TV money.
My impression is unless you're one of the "haves" (LA, Miami, Boston) you should be ok, but I see allot of "have not" teams/struggling for revenue as many "fans" are priced right out of the arena.
I also see it as being very cyclic too depending on many factors - i.e. when the Wizards were good, the fans were there, then not so much. Now that John Wall is here......well, we'll wait and see. And, if your team is NOT good and your opponent doesn't have a "superstar" draw, why go?
The money train has to end sometime doesn't it?
Of course, we've been saying that for yrs too.....
