    ...and the Nets were to move to Seattle. Would you still support this team?

    What about if they were to move to Baltimore, or Kansas City?

    that would be tough, very tough.
    I mean, they wouldn't be called the Nets anymore most likely. I guess I'd have to support them by default, but it'd be so tough to see their games without league pass, and sadly, wouldn't be able to attend anymore games.

    How would they move? Neither city has plans to build a new arena as far as I can tell.

    Kansas City seems like a more logical destination.

    I would; I'm a fan of the franchise now. Hopefully they wouldn't keep the name the same (as they're doing now).

    What I'd be pissed about is that it would kill any chances we have of getting Lebron.

    I would support the team wherever they moved. This day and age with NBA TV and internet it would be silly not to follow them.

    Well, I'll add Kansas City to the list of possible destinations too

    I’d support them more if, unlike Brooklyn, the owners bought property at market value instead of using eminent domain and did not use government subsidies. Using eminent domain and government subsidies to build a sports arena is not justified.

    Yes, I would still support them if they moved to Seattle or Kansas City.

    I like the Tennessee Titans, so distance doesn't really matter to me.

    If the Nets move out of here, they can go f themselves. I'll root for every team in the league over them.

    all new players, new city, nah i'd be done with them, still would hate the nixs. I'd pick another team, but never the kc nets.

    It just ain't right.

    I don't really know. I would have to be in the situation. I probably would.
