Our bandwagon expands globally. Heat still have to prove they can match that kind of fairweather power.

There are probably alien laker fans on mars who cheered the title this year but think Chris Mihm started at center.

[TDMVPDPOY]

i hate fkn bandwagon fans, or even the casual fans who fkn only follow the winners only....i always tell these faggots, stick to one team or either one player and follow their careers, stop jumping all over the place cause other teams or players are doing good.....

[Mike-in-brazil]

I know stern and nba share holders are brisk with joy.

LMAO@ that!!
Beautifully carried out and accomplish!!! did all set that up? or was it an uncultivated dick suck exposure?

[nkdlunch]

as the great Manu Ginobili has recently said. There is only 1 ball to be shared between Lebron / Wade = good thing for the rest of the nba.

I hate the bandwagon fans as well or the ones who will only root for there team when they are good. I admit I can be a bandwagon fan at times, but that is only during games I want the teams I hate to lose.

Laker fan laughing at bandwagoners. Pot meet kettle. I'm actually glad the Heat came so the bandwagon Spurs fans can finally jump ship. Its getting a little hard to read the trash upstairs. :wakeup

[Spurs9]

Was he refering to the Miami Heat or the entire NBA?

[Borosai]

Miami's fans are like Coach Riley: they'll bail when things get tough.

[Kevin Durant 35]

The dynasty has begun !

[MiamiHeat]

The entire NBA.

Most season tickets sold before the season has started in NBA history.

Anyone with a brain knew this was good for the league. Fans are going to come flocking by the millions. Globally. This team has the potential to be bigger than Jordan's Bulls.

yeap been on this Wagon since about 83 just a kid...how long u been a spurs fan??....

so all fans have same character, and condition cause they like same team???smart so smart lol

Teams that most likely do not win provide the most banwagon fanbase

most real fans just stop cheering/pulling for their own team, yet hate the nba..and teams that are currently wining...mostly!!
read your botton post lol

so the bandwagon Spurs fans can finally jump ship.classic ain't it!!!

heat will have more critics than newfans

[Basketballgirl25]

[Flo-Rida]

Damn hopefully i can at least make a Heat vs Raptors game of course in the nose bleeds .

Slow down.

[OC Lakerfan]

Yep, everyone in Miami wants to see Dwayne Jones play with Lebron.

[MiamiHeat]

Actually, it was "Wade Jones" :lol Some stupid old black lady politician didn't know his name, but was presenting awards. The politicians do anything to get exposure :lol Riley allows it because he can call in favors, such as the county of Miami-Dade announcing the official name change to "Miami-Wade County" for a week.

Not a big deal. :lmao

and Stern's statement is about the entire league.

Not too surprising. I said from jump street this would probably be good for the NBA financially -- at least in the short term. All of a sudden, in the middle of the summer, the NBA is the biggest story, upstaging baseball and the world cup. There will be a ton of attention paid to the Heats this season and I think they're up for meeting expectations.

Long term, it may not work so well. We'll see.

I think, deep down, owners may be privately more OK with this move than they're letting on. The league as a whole has a lot riding on this and a rising tide lifts all ships. They would love to see a return to the glory days when the NBA was on the rise domestically. Overseas expansion has helped the league in the last decade a lot but I think owners know they need to regain traction here in the US.

[lefty]

Wonder where all the fans came from. :rolleyes
San Antonio and Dallas



And Houston and Phoenix soon

[alchemist]

Not surprised, who doesn't want to see this Monster team? Those (oops, meant *that*) Heat games will be sold out with the quickness here in San Antonio.

No more package deals that involve the Heat :lol

you can say that when the Heat go on the road, but when Toronto and Cleveland now go on the road, will those games be sold out? Probably not.

when Toronto and Cleveland come there sales will be way down, although good thing I live in NJ, we never sell out anyway might to easier for me to get tickets to Nets vs Heat then say if I was in other places:lol

very well could have sell out games this season, heck Knicks vs Nets might sell out as well since the new stadium they will be in this year is easy to get to from New York.
