Hi all! I am a fresh NBA addicted and, surprisingly, I understand that the vast majority of fans laugh at Knicks.

Again, as a newbie into the NBA, I was assuming that a team based in NY, with a rich owner and lacking a NBA trophy since years would have been an immediate choice as a team to support.

Could someone explain me why? I imagine that bad management will be the main cause, but I am curious to understand more.

Please give me a reason to support and a reason no to support them.

I really hope you convince me to go for them 😃

    Massive team in a massive city, massive fanbase, but some of the least frequent success of any team in the NBA over the past few decades.

    Usually big-market teams have an immensely easy time building talented squads, but they’ve somehow managed to be a non-factor in the league

      Their fanbase as a whole doesn’t expect shit. There’s always a few morons in a group that size.
