Suck it, Lakers!

[bagelred]

NEW YORK -- The New York Knicks have overtaken the Los Angeles Lakers as the NBA's most valuable franchise, and 17 of the 30 teams are estimated to have lost money last season, according to Forbes.

The Knicks' value rose 12 percent from $586 million to $655 million, the magazine said Wednesday in its annual evaluation. The rise was attributed to increased ticket sales and sponsorships at Madison Square Garden.

The Lakers went up 6 percent from $607 million to $643 million.

LOL... Knicks fans happy they have a higher net worth? i guess that's the only time they can get a heading with lakers in the title. Until they're title contenders the knicks are and have been for the last 30+ years irrelevant.

Why are Knick fans bragging about this? You guy's have done AWFUL for yourself's considering the location\most valuable franchise. What does that great city of NY land you? A decade full of irrelevancy and a second tier superstar in Amare! :oldlol: .

Seriously tho I'd understand if you guy's have dominated the league but you haven't. Laker\Celtics fans do this? It makes sense, you understand it. This is just more mindless arrogance from the Knick fan base :cheers:

Because it's funny. Take a deep breath and remove the stick and read the thread again. Bagelred is clearly trying to be funny (I have to explain this to you?) and you are all being so stuck up and ridiculous. Was that little GIF not meant to be funny?

And we can't make fun of the Lakers? Really? The ****ing Lakers? Who win the title every freaking year? We can't give them shit ever? Their fans can't take it?

[crisoner]

i guess no shame in being #2...but plenty shame losing in the 1st round. 2nd round or bust next year :rockon:

[DTreats]

Only reason Lakers are above Knicks is because of the TV deal, take all TV revenue away from all teams and Knicks are easily number one.

[Fiasco]

Worth $655 million and they can't buy a playoff series.

Actually the original post was from 2011 so it makes sense he'd use a 2011 source.

So the mods are leaving up a thread titled "Suck it, Lakers"? Fine.

The OP can suck it. When I say "it" I'm referring to my gargantuan pen is. Taste it, and savor it with the knowledge that you won't be winning shit again.

Yes, no one would want to buy a basketball franchise in NY who play in their own building in the middle of manhattan and sell out with the highest ticket prices in the league.

[vegasbigshots]

It will be a different story this season 2012-13. NO MORE LINSANITY. :biggums:
