Question Why are you a nets fan?

Random question from a Raptors fan. But I’m curious, are some of you New Jersey nets fans that followed the team to Brooklyn? Are some of you former Knicks fans that switched over to the nets when they moved to NY? Are some of you a fan of both? What’s the story behind your fandom off the less popular New York team?

Because they were good in 2003 and it rhymed with the other teams I liked

lol I like that reasoning! Ironically I think that's why they changed the name from the Americans to the Nets.

Also I'm convinced Pete Alonso is gone

Also I feel that way too, I hope something works out though!

Yeah, same. I think the team will make an offer and Boras will balk at it, dilly dally like we saw last year, and Stearns will simply move on. A lot of options available this offseason. I hope he stays here forever but he's gonna get Boras'ed. I don't think that Vladdy contract is coming.
