Report: Players 'took notice' when James Dolan banned Charles Oakley from Knicks games

NY doesn't have many of the things that athletes care about the most

I moved from NY to LA permanently, so I get it but what does LA have that NY doesn't for a star athlete?

Women? Both have them in spades. The same is true of nightlife. They can have their production companies, labels, fashion HQs and more in either place. I also believe both places have pretty high taxes. Plenty of celebs live in either place and when it comes to the offseason, these players can just jet off to anywhere in a private jet.

So, basically it's the weather? It's not a small thing. Lord knows it's a huge part of why I stay out in LA, but it's not this extensive list you make it out to be.
