Around the Offseason, Take 2

[stuporman]

This was without a doubt that same nets fan under a new screen name. It was obvious from the start.

Maybe it's a weak willed Knicks 'fan' who jumped ship to bandwagon.....

I think the best response to that NYDN page is this picture:

NYK so garbage yet last I saw we are still on top of the food chain.

[Slicin N Dicin]

Nets will never be relevant.

My boys and I led a 'Knicks run Brooklyn" chant after one game we went to where we spanked em, all Nets "fans" could do was keep it moving with their head down.

Can't compare histories, only want to cherry pick last X amount of years, and even then - what do they have to show? Not a damn thing.

VC - never going to claim the nets, will always be remembered as a Raptor
J. Kidd - PHX/Dal/NJ - will never be looked at as only a Net

Who ya got? Richard Jefferson? He went ring chasing and doesn't associate with the Nets

You got Kerry Kittles.

Going back, I could respect Petro, Kenny, and Coleman. that's it. And back then, way behind NYK.


/end rant.


just went on a posting spree for me on a few threads...feeling spicy today lol

Kid, Kittles, KVH, and Martin are the only ones I've ever respected.

[malik959]

Man you guys got rid of him, now I'm back to being bored, somebody please post a video or something!

[stuporman]

It's cool when other fans want to talk bball and all the different aspects of it but when they pepper their posts with insults and inciting then it's obvious what they are doing so should be handled accordingly. If they supported their team in real life as much as they do online the Nets wouldn't be dead last in attendance....

I think this Knicks - Nets thing should be solved the old-fashioned way.

With violence.

[throwbackewing33]

I can’t wait until October 25th for the first game the Knicks play in Brooklyn. That’s when KD will be in for a rude awakening due to being the enemy in his own stadium.

[malik959]

Heck I'm goink over to the Nets board so I can read their last most recent post in July 2010.

I kind of do see Kidd as a Net. Those were good teams he led.

Plus, Dr. J was the face of the ABA as a Net, but at the end of the day most will think of him as a Sixer. I still think of him as a Net first.

But that is kind of the root of the Nets issue. They're a club with ABA, not NBA, origins, that bounced from Lawn Guy Land to the Swamps of New Jersey before landing in Brooklyn.

The Nets have terrible pedigree and that's what it boils down to.

The Knicks have been at MSG the whole time so suck it New Jersey!

Good luck with that. You can only access the Nets board if you log-in from a dial-up modem in New Jersey.

Then they'll see the value of popularity.

It's the offseason, man.

Allow the mods our small pleasures.

I've been catching up reading this, and had this same thought right up to the point I saw the EASY button. Haha - this would never go on during the season, but we are desperate for a few laughs to distract us around here.

On another topic, how many of us have told their wives/gfs to have more sex to take up the slack now that it's the off season?

Y’all lost that season series last season to us though so I’m not sure what “whoop ass in attendance” means when we were 3-1 against y’all even though we were also terrible most of last season too. 8-18 at one point actually. We improved. I don’t care who sells out arenas these are not musicians.

You guys had more attendance than the lakers clippers and Boston, all of whom I’m sure most knicks fans would trade places with in a heartbeat if you can trade team success. You were also only a couple behind the warriors as well so my point is proven.
You won 17 games so I understand this is all you can brag about cause I’m sure if you were in our position, y’all would be bragging about more than who sells out seats. As far as the little brother. You guys were 17 win team last year. Knicks are nothing more than a team that was in NY before us. Nothing more, nothing less. Your team has done nothing in 20 years that warrants talking **** outside of a 50+ win season and even that era ended miserably with Melo. Nets made too many strides to be better, just for a team that has been historically terrible to try down on us cause they were great 20+ years ago

I have no doubt the Knicks will remain one of the most popular teams, but so what? If you not winning games, I don’t care. Like I never argued about a sport where popularity and attendance mattered more then winning games.

I never said the knicks won’t be popular. Dolen will continue to take money from that organization. This we know for sure. What I am saying, that doesn’t matter in the long run

We carrying the city to the playoffs. Not you guys.

The Nets won what exactly in the last 20 years? Nothing. They moved to Brooklyn because New Jersey fans didn't even go see them play....just like the 12 BKN fans that don't go either...because they never win shyt!! Other than Kyrie/KD going there...nothing else has ever worked out there. This summer... the headlines are all you got. 70mil per on players that either NEVER stay healthy or won't even suit up together next year...That's what you're puffing your chest out over? In 2-3 years you'll have 2 over the hill injury risks taking up all of your cap. That's not a good plan.

Knicks are on the right path. Nets fans are getting way ahead of themselves right now.

Since the 2000s? More playoff appearances, more finals appearances , more winning seasons, a playoff victory over you guys and more than likely another championship run with KD and Kyrie. What do you have? A man who’s universally laughed at in Dolen, laughed at by the media, your best player is julius randle(he’s not bad by the way but let’s put something in perspective


You haven’t won anything since the 70s. Your history in the 90s was getting bullied by MJ and Hakeem. Then you go bulldozed by a 3rd year Duncan and proceeded to enter the 2000s doing nothing but being garbage

Knicks are the most overrated franchise in basketball msg is only good for people coming and dropping buckets on you, which is made obvious by the fact we have more all stars players on our team since y’all last finals appreance

All the headlines you get are laughing at you. Case in point


You guys are a laughing stock, a joke. When free agency happened. Knicks fans were openly admitting they were ignoring the media cause they knew they would get roasted

Even your own beloved knicks fans such as Stephen A and Max know it’s a nets town now
https://youtu.be/wxfAsOQRBS0

Y’all have embarrassed our city long enough. It’s nets time now

bruh other than that day nobody has given two chits about the nets

the nets didn’t even have an introduction press conference because nobody cares.

new jersey is what you’ll always be.

Well, the vast majority of the city doesn't pay attention to your team. So, this is somewhat an odd claim.

What truly doesn't matter in the long run is the Nets winning 40ish games for the next 3 years.

Or did that playoff run with Garnett and Pierce really leave an enduring legacy nobody is aware of?
