Dude, get the **** off our board before I report you for trolling. Only fans of this team should post here. You're a PBP anyway, you shouldn't even be here.
Sig-betting against your own team apparently = calling out ridiculous homers that have ALL pointed out it's going to be a tough series. Sure, cool story, bro.

get over yourself.
posters here had us not only getting by the raps no problem but also had us giving the heat fits and taking them down. meanwhile we failed to win 44 games, played some of our worst ball of the season the last week+ and have plenty of weak spots that can be exploited by a team top 10 in offense and defense.
you agree with my posts in the other threads, then call me out for saying the same thing here i said in those. talk about talking out both sides of your mouth. give me this crap im not a fan of the team. 30 years as a fan, season tickets in NJ since the day i could barely afford them, and watch and root for them every game, some games i watch multiple times if im out and distracted.
a fan isnt someone who just says his teams is going to always win. its someone who roots for his team even when they know thats not always the case.
sometimes maybe i go overboard, but again, im invested in this team and it bothers me to see them underachieve massively. and it infuriates me that of 30 NBA teams on this board we have the biggest homers

You go overboard OFTEN TIMES. I just don't get why you need to CONVINCE people of your perceptions, just leave them be.
PS: GTFO with this homer crap, have you seen the raptors board? you should.

the raptors board has alot of homers, just like the knicks board does... but thats mostly because they have like 100 times the amount of posters as most boards. most of the posters over their are pretty unbiased(all fansa re gonna be a bit biased) and most knick fans are self loathing.
here, its like 50% massive tommy heinsohn level homers.

Wow talk about a reading comprehension fail. I agree with some points that you make, and I have zero issue with anyone thinking we'll lose this series.
I have a problem with someone actually betting against their own team. You're sig-betting that the Nets will lose. What kind of Nets fan does that?

And you're not a real fan. You hate on this team constantly, to the point where your criticisms aren't even true. And again, you're NOT rooting for your team. You're betting against them. And then you're going to act like you're a real fan. Everyone on this board has had to put up with your bull **** for the last 2 years and hear you justify how you're a real fan, and here you are actually betting against them. It's pathetic.

Lol, ok. People don't agree with your views = massive homers. You already called me a homer as well just because i don't agree with all of your doom and gloom predictions, at the end of the day i don't see ANYBODY here saying we're contenders, but i don't see ANY issue in being confident in advancing in the first round, call me a homer for it, i don't care.

Re: Playoff Sigs and sig bets!
There's a difference between thinking that we're going to lose this series...and actually doing a sig bet against your own team so you can brag about being right later.
Exculpatory, whose sole reason to root for the Nets is Paul Pierce, is a far better Nets fan than you, prokorov. What's hilarious is that you had the nerve to question the fanhood of other posters

you must have missed the slew of posts having us getting past the heat. and im fine thinking this team can beat the raptors, but the ones brushing them off like this is a 1 vs. 16 seed in the NCAA tournament are just crazy.
either way, this is a sig bet thread. i posted an bet for any takers. im not the one who started getting on peoples cases. im pessimistic about our chances. ill still be cheering us on all year, just like i did last year vs. the bulls when i didnt think we could get past them. i hope they prove me wrong and make me look like a dolt.

whose fanhood did i question. homers are still fans.
its not bragging about losing... its just a bit of a nudge at people who called me an idiot for suggesting we might not be an elite team that is going to roll the raps and heat and indy
there sig bets. its an internet forum. people are making it out like their first borns are on the line

Re: Playoff Sigs and sig bets!
I've yet to see anyone "brush off" the Raptors like they're an 8th seed team. Stop talking out of your ass, pretty much all of us are giving the Raptors team plenty of respect here. Most people have acknowledged that its going to be a tough series. It's you who is having a problem with fans believing that they can actually beat the Raptors. It's you who is calling those people "homers", because they don't agree with your views.Prokorov wrote:Palmeirense wrote:Lol, ok. People don't agree with your views = massive homers.

paradise said something to the effect of "raptors arent an obstacle we will have no issue getting past them easily"
ill try and find it, gotta find what threads its in. there were plenty others as well, especially about us beating the heat or taking them 7. especially after we beat them
im not calling people homers cause they disagree with me. i call them homers for thinking a 44 win team of underachiving pl;ayers is a title contender

Alright I'll sig bet you. I bet that the Nets win this series.
If I win, you wear a sig of my choice for the remainder of the playoffs. If you win, I wear a sig of your choice for the remainder of the playoffs.
Keep it classy.
Deal?

I never once said that. I did say there is no excuse losing to the Raptors in the first round. I said that because of the expectations of this team trying to be elite.

Re: Playoff Sigs and sig bets!
Since the Raptors are so keen on using "We the north" tagline, we might as well use this:
Tyrion Lannister: The northerners will never forget.
Tywin Lannister: Good. Let them remember what happens when they march on the south.

Prok is just being realistic with his criticisms and predictions, no need to be a homer bro
