Pittsburgh better quit fuckin around and get an NBA team

[@troywoods1286]

Man y'all better get it done that's been a missing link

Pittsburgh NBA team would be a great rivalry with the Sixers, Celtics and the Knicks honestly

Pittsburgh fan would be ecstatic when they get an NBA & WNBA team

[@rezidentbivrip]

I would love if an NBA team came to Pittsburgh! I used to love the NBA whenever I used to watch Michael Jordan play. But not having a hometown team has made me not really care about the league. It was not because I don't like basketball it's because I don't have a home team to root for. And I refuse to root for Philadelphia or Cleveland! 😂

[@dreamcage1801]

Have faith that y’all will have a NBA team hopefully they’ll be like the Steelers. Y’all can be good rivals with Philly, NY, and Boston. I hate today’s NBA because theirs no defense, integrity and lionheart which is why I mis 90s & 00s NBA.

[@Carvel0]

Not having a hometown team makes you root for certain players not teams.

[@dreamcage1801]

@@Carvel0 that’s the sad part because anybody in a city would want to have a pro sports team and root for the team

[@bobcieslinski]

Sorry I’m usually not negative in comments but the guy who said Pittsburgh wears it as a badge of honor in not being an NbA watching town is full of it. I’ve been a fan for 50 years and I live here and support all Pittsburgh teams. I teach in the elementary schools and the younger generation is definitely fans. I’m not alone in this thinking. We deserve an nba franchise. Our last pro basketball team won a championship. Please please bring this to our blue collar town.

[@dreamcage1801]

Y’all would be very juiced if you Pittsburgh fans have a NBA team and be that new clash of the titans team. 76ers, Celtics, Knicks and Cavaliers are going to be your new rivals and that level of animosity will be brutal.

[@JustinW06]

Yeah when he said that I'm thinking wow you're an idiot lol.

[@JustinW06]

Yeah when he said that I'm thinking what the hell is he talking about lol.

[@White_sox_fan]

If Pittsburgh gets an NBA team then the 76ers will have an interstate rival

[@dreamcage1801]

Flyers and penguins of the NBA rivals. They can also be rivals with the Celtics and Knicks as well. Pittsburgh NBA team gotta build from the ground up starting by building in the draft and make small trades for a cheap young player.

[@paddle_my_mad_laddle]

I'm okay with this. BUT PLEASE BRING SEATTLE A TEAM BACK SOON

[@DJ_BROBOT]

wont happen, Pittsburgh doesnt have the metro area size to have 4 sports teams. Theyre a mid-market city.

[@dreamcage1801]

But they got a NBA ready arena though

[@PrinceSonCheeba]

Cleveland is a mid-market city also and they have 4 teams likewise with Boston.

[@jhony9924]

NBA WNBA EXPANSIONS AND MORE TEAMS, IN OTHER WORDS, MORE PEOPLE TO SHARE THE CAKE. WHICH MEANS SLICES BECOME SMALLER BECAUSE MORE AND MORE PEOPLE ARE JOINING PARTY. THERE MIGHT NOT BE ENOUGHT FOR ALL. I'm crazy BY THE WAY;

[@dreamcage1801]

Pittsburgh is a medium sized sports market and & an NBA team would fit there just fine

[@adamrmattock1]

Who could afford going to NBA games if Pittsburgh is selected, see Washington, DC because there's no interest with the Wizards after years of lousy play and more fans prefer the Capitals than the Wizards so please don't bring the NBA to Pittsburgh

[@dreamcage1801]

Wizards don’t have no talent. Talent brings in fans. Offense sells. Defense wins championships.
