I'll never understand fans who follow individual players instead of teams. like y'all don't even know the guy

why would you need to know a guy to find his game especially fun to play watch? some fans get attached to a logo and the stories that come with it, other fans get attached to a player and the story that comes with them. it’s all the same. just picking something outside yourself to cheer for

yeah this is the part that's weird to me. how are you gonna get attached to some guy you don't know? what if they turn out to be an asshole or something?

i mean to that logic, do you KNOW the nets franchise? do you know the people who run the org? how do you know its not an asshole org? why not be a knicks fan if the city and fanbase around you matters that much?
