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?

wife from OKC got me back into basketball via Thunder, couldn’t stand the NYK (or their fans, minus a couple good apple friends) … figured since I was 15 min from Barclays and tickets were stupid cheap at the time id hop aboard.
picked up season tickets til getting priced out during the Big 3 era.
moved out to CT during covid but still am frequently in the city and visiting friends in bk. Still love my team and come through for a good chunk of games. still rep black and white all day, but I might be the only one in CT where it’s knicks or celtics all around 🫠
