I'm a nets fan first and always. Players and their careers/efforts are too unpredictable to root for now. They either get traded, get injured/washed up or do something despicable that makes you not want to root for them. Stephon Marbury has done that to me and I learned my lesson and will never root for a player the way I root for a team. I was about 10 when Marbury came to NJ and was excited because he was a brooklyn guy, a local hero and he just totally let me down. Athletes are human beings and are imperfect but teams are just way easier to root for because they are constant, they barely ever move and the total sum of the parts is what really matters.
