it's funny w/ the crowds now you'll hear this gasp and cheer not when korver makes a three but just when he's open from three and catches a pass or even just when the crowd realizes that omg korver is open, dude's in that bird zone where you just assume he can hit it every time.
^this is always dope and a sign the fans know what's up

sadly it looks like the only ny team on expapp is the mets.i have copped tickets to about six nets games so far from my buddy with season access but even with the knicks utterly fucking abysmal record, stubhub seats still start around $40 for midtier

on the plus side, dude's tickets are throw-a-tennis-ball distance from beyonce so just staring at her when the nets are down twenty has been a reasonable distraction

there's a big transient pop but that's true alot of places. the only thing most ppl in the south are truly sports fans in the way ppl in the ne are sox or knicks fans or whatever is college football (and tbh i kinda doubt ne sports fans are as crazy in their fandom as sec football fans). college football predates professional sports in the south by a good bit and most professional sports in atlanta weren't even really competent until somewhat recently - 91 w/ the braves, whenever arthur blank bought the falcons. i think the braves and falcons have legit strong fanbases now though, braves were helped by being on tv everywhere and wsb had their am radio rights and their signal was insane. falcons have sucked for past two years but ppl still care, ppl have delusions and hopes that two or three moves can right this ship, whereas like nobody thought 'we'll get 'em next year' after the super bowl year or anything. hawks it's weird in that they haven't really had those stretches of being outright fucking awful that the braves and falcons had (not that i recall at least, bad years but not a bad decade) but their successes are minor. like if i think of the best season the hawks had in terms of atlanta buying in it was the year of the nique-bird duel and that ended w/ the hawks out in the second round, just like last year, just like most years. honestly though there's a heavy racial element to it i'd guess and a heavy anti-atlanta sentiment outside of atlanta (esp immediately outside of atlanta)(like where the braves are moving outside the perimeter is newt gingrich territory), too liberal, too gay, too black too black too black. there was a piece about what koonin is doing w/ the marketing, marketing it more towards ppl in atlanta - young ppl, black ppl - and a lot of that is fallout from that owner's letter and danny ferry but i also think is the right way to build a fanbase for this team, that basically the same way you build a legit dependable fanbase for the hawks is the same way you turn georgia purple.

I guess he really started last year but it's so rare that a dude suddenly starts making almost three 3s a game in his late 20s even though probably a dozen guys talk about it in training camp every year, goes along with the 15 pounds of muscle everyone puts on

Yah. Good d on that last play just forgot to secure the rebound. I disagreed with jvg they shoulda fouled earlier. 3-4 seconds not enough time imo.

Parsons didn't need to swipe at all on that other one Woulda been a junk shot anyway
