The globetrotters are not NBA.

the globetrotters are PANTO. It's for children.

Like Smokey the bear. "only you can prevent forest fires" (which is sound advice, i don't mean to devalue Smokey, just saying...)

Do you guys find that you are more loyal to teams/clubs? or players?

And if you are loyal to a team over players, as a foreigner, what makes you loyal to a specific team?

I think it's interesting to think that certain teams have internationl fans, and i wonder if like the internaional fans follow a patern. like forinstance, do most irish people support a specific team/ english, scottish german, etc....

or do you just pick one for yourself and stay loyal?

Like is there a specific team that most English NBA fans support? or does every english person pick whatever team they want? maybe lakers becaue there ar so many English stars living in Hollywood?
And like most irish fans support new england teams because of the high irish immigrant population?

Or is there no rhyme or reason to it? Just curious.

Well, I dont know about the NBA but I know quite a lot about the British fan base for the NFL. The most widly supported teams are either the best ones, the Pats being the prime example although some people choose to support then just for having "England" in their name. When the game first attracted a crowd in the 80's the top teams back then still have a fair few fans, like the Raiders and the 49ers, the Cowboys as well. Then the Dolphins are very popular over here, partly because everyone likes their location and then because of Dan Marino. A lot of the newer fans might choose to support one of the teams that have played over here in the UK as well, so teams like the Saints are growing in popularity no doubt.

That's what I know about the NFL anyway, not sure about the NBA

cool, thanks for the response. So it sounds like the NFl's strategy of bringing games to London really does have an effect then! it's creating loyal fans. Very cool.

And As a Raiders supporter, nice to hear that they are one of the more popular teams over there.
