That's funny considering that PHX has the biggest front-running fans in the NBA.

Laker fans actually like the Lakers even when they suck.
I did make this this comment.. And I find it ironic that two laker fans living in AZ make this comment.. You dont think that somehow folks exactly such as yourselfs have something to do with this problem? I mean cmon.. Your two people in AZ not following the home team.. You guys are the very reason AZ fans are the way they are..

That's because the home team is not the Lakers. Duh.
If they were, I'd be at every game.
But that's not the point, Gee. The point is, they have no problem selling out the place when they are in the playoffs or doing really well, but if they aren't on top of their game, the fairweather fans stay home.
The Lakers fans always show up...they just show up late..especially to friday games because of the traffic. Never fails, every friday I comment on it watching the games because it is empty in the first half, full in the second.

Really? They may show up but for how long? A quarter? show up half way thru the 2nd then leave half way thru the 3rd.. I mean, they make an appearence then jet.. Dont even say the laker fans aint like that..

They stay the whole game, once they finally arrive.

Let me ask you this Gee.. if for some reason you had to move to Seattle next month, do you become a Seahawk Fan?
I don't get the logic with the "you have to follow your home team" thing. My loyalty to the Lakers was built at a very early age since I'm originally from California. My whole family is full of Laker fans and when I came out here, I already had a loyalty to a Basketball team and a Baseball Team (The Angels.) As a result, I don't root for the Suns for the D-Backs. I didn't have a football team, so I picked the Cardinals and later adopted the Coyotes as my hockey team.
If you think that my moving to a new state when I was 14 means that I should change my favorite team, then it's not me that's the "fair weather" fan. If I moved to New England next week, I wouldn't become a Patriots fan..

Would you?
Ive already answered these kinds of questions because I had to go thru them in real life.. And the answer is where I live now...

Well, I'm different then. If I moved to another state, I would still root for the Cardinals, just how I am. It's cool you feel that way, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Me, I like the Lakers and live in Phoenix.
Hard fought win tonight over Denver. I'm surprised they pulled it out to be honest. Kobe had 4 fouls in the 3rd, no Bynum or Ariza, and even though Kwamie had 11 boards he played another terrible game, failing to pick up his defensive assignment and letting people go unchallenged to the rim.
Fisher, Odom and Jordan Farmar really stepped up, and Ronnie Turiaf played a solid game in relief of Brown. I have to say, I really like the 3 guard set with Fisher, Farmar, and Bryant all on the floor at the same time. Talk about a set that can spread the floor. The game wasn't pretty but a win is a win. We'll take them anyway we can get em right now. Aside from the 3rd quarter where they let the Nuggets turn a 17 point deficit into a 2 point lead, it was a good game.
