Twitter fan follower shows Lakers Most National Team

[EArl]

Twitter rolled out a new map that shows which NBA team is most followed in what area of the country. We highlighted the most notable facts in this new feature.

-The Los Angeles Lakers have the biggest following in the country, beating out every NBA team by a substantial margin.
-Despite being one of the best teams in the league, the Golden State Warriors get little love in the state of California.
-To no surprise, the Toronto Raptors rule the northern area of North America.
-Alaska is divided between the Raptors, Miami Heat and Lakers. It looks like some LeBron fans stayed loyal in Alaska.
-The Heat dominate Florida, leaving little respect to the Orlando Magic.
For more facts, check out the map.

And1 Earl. Interesting stuff. It's actually Bulls red coloring Alaska, though. Not the Raptors.

As it should be. Repeated excellence should be rewarded.

No wonder so many are cheering for Kobe when this team is on the road.
