I will say this about nets lot of teams don't respect them in the eastern conference its lot bad blood between sixers,raptors,celtics,miami, bucks,and lot of others.

ESPN had those guys for a few years. Durant has been MVP and a top 5 player for a decade. Its not that they are hyping the nets NY, they hare hyping them as a national presence and its good for ratings. They hype the Bucks, Celtics, lakers, etc........They hype the stars.

Jay williams and richard jefferson have been there on espn for years but they take there shots at the knicks but they are very unprofessinial. Espn and tnt reporters always go to unprofessional takes about knicks and dolan they take it to far. I am glad knicks only have 1 game on espn this year i wish there wasn't any games because how unprofessional espn crew some of stuff is justified about the knicks. Jay williams and richard jefferson are friends with durant they always say bad stuff about the knicks. Espn hired nets beat reporter to cover the nets in malika andrews because nets had kd and irving so they could have special net news and no knicks news.

Jay Williams is a Knicks fan I believe.

Jay does fall into the lazy knick hating commentary trap and his meltdown over the Knicks not drafting Halliburton is at least understandable. But the Knicks did get Quick at 27 who will end up being a better PG.

Jay is a nice guy my friends used to play pickup games at Sonny Werblin gym at Rutgers he was very nice to everyone. Richard Jefferson is an arrogant douchebag he was on the Nets and he certainly is now

Our generation may stay loyal, but its the youth that will start to migrate.

20 years of irrelevancy will start to matter.

2. Ewing has big issues with the NY media for years. It took years for the love to go both ways.

3. Ratings? Two games are not a season. They will get worse if knicks don’t take care of there own business.

I was born in Brooklyn...Raised in Queens....But I will never say F the Bronx. And I will always be a Knicks fan....Been a fan for too long to turn my back now.

But if the Nets are playing another team, I rather see Brooklyn win that anybody else. After living in multiple states outside of NY, it's all the same to them.

I still don't since any harsh disputes between knicks and nets fans in NYC. It's like both fans understand their place, so it's not even an argument, just great bar discussions.

But if I was 12 yrs old, growing up in NYC....Of course I'm a Nets fan all day. It's almost embarrassing for a young kid or even an adult to rep the knicks, outside of NYC. So when I see that, I always give them props.

Knick fans are like battered and abused husbands or wives. But we keep coming back. UK site is where we come to release. Because everybody else still things we are crazy for being knicks fans.

I was a yankees fan in the 80’s and early 90’s when they were bad and all the fair weather fans in NY were rooting for the Mets. I don’t care. I think the bandwagon mentality of the 80’s and 90’s died down there are too many media choices now. People aren’t switching teams to go root for the bulls and cowboys like they did in the 90’s
