I am getting so tired of the ignorance in the Basketball Community



I have to say one thing about Nets fans, much like old hardcore ECW fans we seem to be the most educated. Yes there are some homers but we also like to keep informed about other teams and players. We analize based off what we study not just records and the one game we see a week. But honestly I'm tired of going into any other site on SB nation or Yahoo sports and just listen to the complete ignorance people have of other teams, espeicially the Nets. Today someone posted it will be a long shot for our roster to even make the play offs, that the way the team is built and the talent we have isn't even play off caliber and basically says the same about the knicks. Then we have the guys that say all we did was add Joe Johnson. Brook, Hump, Brooks and D-Will were the only players we still have from last years training camp. Wallace and Bogans came in later in the season. We have have 18 players of which twelve are brand new. Is it really that hard to look up facts? Am I just arrogant or are we one of the only basketball communities that does their homework? I think we do in most part because we always wanted to look for players we hoped we could trade for. But still we all keep pretty up to date with other teams. Like T-Wolves stacking up, Pheonix and Dallas still building a decent playoff team at best, LAC getting better. And these are just smaller teams. I doubt any of us would be so ignorant as to assume these teams just added one player. I don't know had to vent plus yahoo keeps deleting my pro Nets posts.
