The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

Cavs we're 2nd in attendance in the "Bron Years"

Indians never cracked top 20

But hey. You know your stuff buddy. lmao

Indians were top 5 in attendance every single season from 96-01. They were first in the league in both 99 and 2000.

Not like they never had fans. They just stopped coming once the team started to suck.

The Wizards legit don’t have a fanbase.

Man LeBron did it for CLEVELAND, OHIO. The Indians did bigger numbers than the Cavs in the LeBron years.

To a lesser extent he did it for Miami for a bit.

Miami fans would actually come to games only 15-20 minuetes late as opposed to and hour late. I SAW IT.

Vic could do it.

You’re obviously not particularly versed with fandom in this area.

Even when Jordan was with the Wiz, and they were actually selling MCI Center out, there was still very large percentages of opposing fans.

During the Arenas/Butler/Jamison era there were thousands of Cavs fans at the playoff games.

If the Cs/Knicks/Sixers are in town, it sounds like a road game for the Wiz.

It’s a city where folks go to see the opposing team. Always has been.

I'm well aware. That just wasn't what was said.

They didn't open up the stadium like that though. There was a big curtain up and the court was off center.

Ahhhhhh that's why... for 20 plus years I have always wondered what the deal was with that massive curtained wall in San Antonio. Now I know. Sidenote: Spurs vs. Knicks in '99 was the first NBA Finals I ever watched on TV.

Caught the Jordan 2s on a sneaky restock this am. Jesus is real

 

[clyde the glide]

Is Middletown Americas injury more serious than theyre letting on?

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Bucks could use a player like PG

Delta Center back. As a Laker fan in the 90-2000s, Delta Center and Arco Arena were the two loudest arenas from the tv perspective.

The NBA really letting Karl Malone slide back into their universe and I don't like it.

 

[mister friendly]

People complaining about the Spurs Alamodome record setting “gimmick” game don’t understand the connection small market teams have to their city. Fan base is mainly working class Latinos, it’s hard to compare to another city. How many other one team cities out there? Memphis? Portland?

It’s celebrating 50 years to mostly success in the Dome.

 

[antidope]

You going to become a fan again?

When was I not a fan still? I just care about Steph Curry more. He is a person, not an amorphous thing. Its easier to identify with.

Not a spurs fan but have lived in SA for like 20 years. This was the first game back played at the alamo dome in years which is somewhat iconic here. Glad they got waxed
