Similar things happened amongst the men over the years as NBA got more profitable and salaries increased. I think MJ was quite resented at the time before he won any championships. I also recall reading that in the Larry Bird era and before that lesser paid players sometimes got second jobs.
Yes, but the true rivalry brought interest into the game and new ticket sales that allowed the players to get paid more for their labor. The value of their play, to the team went up as more people demanded more tickets to see the games.
