Are there actually any fans of this team. They suck. Why would anyone in Los Angeles root for these pathetic losers when you have the Lakers to root for?

As a mtter of fact, is there ANYONE that roots for the New Jersey NETS??? Like as in, pay for a ticket to one of their games???

Nets/Clippers fans only, or Joisians/Los Angelinos, please.

I can’t speak for the Clipers fans, but I’ve paid good money for Nets tickets. I wanted to take a date (now my wife) to a basketball game, and the worst available seats at the Knick game were available for no less than $55. For $15 I got decent seats from which to watch the Kings pummel the Nets. I’m not a fan of the team, but if I want to see professional basketball, at least they’re affordable.

Save your smack-talk, Satan. I know you clones better than you know your clones!

And please, NO Orenthal resets! LOL

Anyway . . . CM Keller . . are you saying that Clippers and Nets fans are basketball fans who cant afford to see the Lakers or Knicks?
