my sarcasm detector is jammed

when your team and fans show up at the same time, I call it questionable

sorry i meant agree with you

All the laker fan hate is great.

I don't know whats with all the crap talking though.

People want to cheer for winners period. The city of LA does have fair weather fans...

But there are people(like myself) who used to sneak into the fourm or get in when the tickets were hella cheap when all we had was nick the quick, vlade, pigmiller and folks like that.

Who cares what forbes has to say. Root for your team.

 

[purplerelgn]

i can see why the kings made it up there. their fanbase seems like a fanatical white mormon cult. same with the jazz.
last season when the lakers visited and half the arena were lakers fans and chanting mvp for kobe is a big no-no though

EDIT: Knicks are CLEARLY #1 yall talk like you can match us in Portland. Please any other team would be moved out or something if they had to go through what we had to this decade. But were still here and people like me still watch every single game. Attendance is different than loyalty. We're #1 in loyalty.

I don't always agree with GR8 but in this case hes really speaking the truth

for real yo thats what i love bout us Knicks fans on here, we may have different view points in terms of getting what we want, but at the end ofthe day i know that all yall are just as passionate as i am which is why i love speking on nt here even if i dont agree with everyone. I can argue with yallbut i know that we all want the same end result, and at the end of the day its all love.

Knick fans on NT >>> Knicks fans in general.
def agreed.

but for real like i said no other city could take the hits like the Knicks did this decade and still stay as loyal as we did. Sure there are the ones thatstopped watching and even worse the "Swapmprat" front runners. But this city is still full of fans that are loyal and bleed orange and blue for lifeand wanna win.

riiiiight bro.

i am a laker fan. trust me. the majority are just hanging on the bandwagon. apparently you cant remember how it was when the lakers were irrelevant. its nothing like the games now. they are like the san diego charger fans of the nba. only around when its good. clipper fans are 20 times more loyal than laker fans.

Preach!

 

[throwback1718]

yo with my mans who said NYC was full of bulls fans back when MJ was with them, CO UFFIN SIGN

i hated that even in my young days back then my fam and me always cheered for the knicks and we seemed like the only ones we knew that rooted for us, and mindyou this is when we were one of the top teams in the league.

and allen yes for damn sure nt knick fans, are smarter than other knick fans when it comes to the specifics and dynamics of the game.
shoot some of us could be head coaches

 

[jakecuevas]

LAKERS FTW

yee not a bandwagon...straight out of the 562

[color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]Of course there is a huge bandwagon when you have the best player in the L. In the90's the Bulls fanbase was HUGE because of MJ. Same goes for the Lakers with Kobe...[/color]

QFT. Back in the mid-1990s, when it was the Vlade-Van Excel-EJ-Ceballos-Elden Campbell Lakers, there was nowhere near as many Laker fans as there is now. Ihave no doubt it will be the same way again once the Kobe era ends, if the team has some down years.

theres gonna be bandwagons no matter what...i just hate the stereotype that ALL Laker fans are bandwagons...as ive been a Laker since the anthonypeeLer and doug christie days...but the thing with the Lakers is that theyve been very consistant in winning, you gotta give them that i mean in their historytheyve onLy missed the postseason 3 times

...with consistant winningcomes consistant bandwagoners...i mean you say there is nowhere near as many Laker fans as there is now, what about the chicago MJera?!...every-freakin'-body was on the chicago's jockstrap...BULLS THIS BULLS THAT!...now where are they?...not much chicago fans anymore...so aLso yougotta separate the Lakers fans to the kobe fans...there are A LOT of kobe fans who arent Laker fans but they are fans of the Lakers because of kobe...

Sort of the same picture you paint the Warriors fan base, right? Winning is sure to bring along bandwagoners. Yeah the Warriors had one playoffappearance since '93-'94 and in no way shape, or form am I comparing the Lakers success to the Warriors success, there is no comparison, but it'swinning nonetheless - compared to the losing that we were experiencing for what seemed like an eternity.

 

[eyegiantjackpot]

lakers had a 99% return on their season ticket holders, and the wait list is about 4 years to get to sit in the last row in the 300s.. thats sounds pretty damnloyal to me..

 

[kingofny04]

Definitely Knicks at the top, only team to win less then 30 games and still have loyal fans.
