Boy...I thought Cavs fan are gonna be less salty after winning the Championship.

Nope. :lol:

You are extremely deluded if you don't think the Cavs are easily in the top 2 most bandwagoned teams, so I don't know why you even bring that up.

nearly every Lebron Cavs jersey I've seen are the rebranded ones. You can tell most Cavs fans have only been around since 2014

I sure hope they are selling for more than $88 per jersey.

Oklahoma fans buying a Warriors KD jersey should pay a bandwagon tax to help fund our new stadium.

You are lying if you expected Durant's GSW jersey to be the top selling jersey in Oklahoma. The comparison to Lebron would be if Lebron's Miami Heat Jersey was the top selling jersey in Ohio right after the decision, which I highly doubt was the case.

I'm not usually an "I told you so" kind of person, but since there were so many truly obnoxious anti-KD types pontificating about how he was hurting the league and his brand, he was being soft, and promoting other truly mindless illogical fallacies about how this micro-cosmically tiny slice of the world (realgm forum) was reflective of reality in general, well, LoLoLoLoL about sums it all up.

Seriously, who buys NBA jersey in July? It's not like people in OKC are running out to get Oladipo's jersey in the middle of off season.

Could be 30 Durant's jerseys sold in OKC and it's the best selling NBA jersey.
