The crowd does suck. As I've been saying all along, they're not gonna have a brand new fanbase overnight. It takes time. Not every BK head blindly switched allegiances and not every Jersey fan followed them to BK. The atmosphere would be liver if there was a liver crowd. Livest people there are those sugar rush having white boys. Some jokingly call this team the Bay Ridge or Bensonhurst Nets.
For now, you're gonna see more fans of other teams than the Nets until they do something that gets them more fans. Just sticking a Brooklyn on the logo and having a wack ass BROOOOKLLYYYNNN chant that fans are too shook to say isn't gonna make everything better.
The good news is that the arena is great, the food is good, it's easy to get to, and you feel so safe outside.
