Nets Social Net Savvy
The Nets' social networking visibility has dramatically increased over the last several years with a presence on Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, YouTube and MySpace. Their traffic on Facebook is up 350% and Ben Couch's offerings on NetsBasketball are now followed by 23,000 tweeps. That's up 300%. Fast Company Magazine thinks the Nets are in the top five of NBA teams. What drives traffic most? "When mysterious billionaire owner Mikhail Prokhorov, aka the 'Russian Mark Cuban,' posts a video".
However, with only seven players --Terrence Williams, Anthony Morrow, Devin Harris, Kris Humphries, Travis Outlaw, Joe Smith and the leader, Johan Petro-- tweeting, the Nets have fallen behind the Knicks, who boast one of the biggest Twitter communities among NBA teams with 11 players tweeting. The Thunder and Bucks also have 11.

With the number of Nets fans increasing in other time zones, got to have something for them, too!
What's sad
