    I wonder how much each one of those corporate sponsor contracts is worth.

    Too bad Rockets won't benefit from that on the basketball court.

    Truth, if Dwama had half a brain, and he really wanted to be a global icon, he'd be begging to join the Rockets.

    It is relevant. It is a return on an investment.

    so basically the $25 million dollar pays for itself as Lin brings in more international sponsors ala Yao

    It's the offseason bro. Jeremy Lin getting a milkshake is threadworthy.

    Maxxis is actually a pretty good brand, always thought they were American.

    Les Alexander has also agreed to make the team mascot more 'tire friendly'.

    Pretty sure that signage revenue stays with the Rockets. Usually any money generated by/in the arena stays with the team. This would include signage (Maxxis), naming rights (Toyota), and in-arena jersey sales.
