Do people in Brooklyn actually root for the Nets?

[Big Boss]

 

[1thouwow]

They should've never left Jersey

 

[fifth column]

No

 

[Kitsch]

 

[Rollo Goodlove]

Nets could 4 peat and Knicks would still run NY

Brooklyn doesn't deserve a team. Not gentrified Brooklyn anyway. Most true Brooklynites can't afford to go to games. They thought that gentrified Brooklyn (transplants) would benefit the nets, but it's backfired. If this was early 2000s, or 90s BK? shyt would be lit. But you can't price out natives and still expect them to support.

The type of people moving to Brooklyn don't bleed sports. They'd be better off catering to their alma maters as some type of tie-in. Make it an event of some sort.

I thought Brooklyn Nets gear would fly off the shelves when they first moved to Brooklyn and I seen that color scheme.

Nets gear doesn't look gay enough.

They came out during the gay and weirdo era.

Late 90s till mid 2000s their merchandise would've done 3 times that.

Don't really know any Nets fans other than Fab.

Nets tickets are cheaper than Knicks Tickets

Any event at the Barclays is cheaper than MSG

Silver is cheaper than gold

I'm from and I live in Brooklyn and to this day I have yet to see someone walk around in a nets jersey. This city will always be knicks territory.

If Brownsville nikkas packed the Barclays

Nets could 4 peat and Knicks would still run NY

FALSE
Just like any city, NY rocks w/ winners, people will hop on if they're constant title contenders. I haven't seen so many Mets gear til they made the WS, and folks were flocking on the Jets when they made those AFC Title games. There was interest in the Nets when Jay and the new arena popped up. they just need a couple of title runs to be the toast of the town,
