Does every team in the NBA have a fan forum like clutchfans? If so what are the websites for these forums? thnaks in advance
Probably. But clutch is the best out of all the ones I've seen so far in terms of legit thread topics and quality of discussions.
One thing I like about CF is the professionalism.. the avatars and the signatures in the other sites make them look r****ded tbh. Although it would be nice if we could use search or see our last few posts or something..
The Lakers have some good fan forums. I seen other teams fan forums and they blow. Look at the New Orleans Hornets.... I know there are several clutchfan members on the Spurs and Mavs fan forums. I believe there's two for each team as well.
Spurstalk is pretty fun to browse if only for their leniancy even towards trolls, so you'll see some pretty hilarious posts when certain teams win/lose. It They're crazy with the avatars/sigs though.
The ones I know that has been mentioned here are Spurs, Mavs, Blazers, Spazz, Lakers.. I think that's it off the top of my head. There's that user here MemphisX or something.. I think he might be a part of a Nuggets forum as well. I think those are the ones that matter to us simply because we hate them so much, or had recent playoff games against. Why would you wanna know the rest? I can only imagine how boring a Bucks and Pacers forum must be.
I like the different personalities that post on this forum. Even though I am a Kings fan first, and I came here because of Yao + Rick, I will stick around even after they are gone. I think this is one of the biggest if not THE biggest online fanbase that I have seen.
http://www.kingsfanclub.com/madness.html This page has a listing of other teams' forums. Not sure if it's being kept up to date.
Google will usually sort them by popularity if you search for something like: atlanta hawks forum RealGM has a lot of forums too, some active (New York Knicks), some not (San Antonio Spurs). Usually the inactive ones on RealGM have a good alternative somewhere else (again, Google it).
RealCavsFans is the equivalent of here. The current Amare trade thread has 9k replies. The problem is they aren't as focused as here, meaning a lot of non-relevant posts (75% of that Amare thread is about how long everyone has been refreshing, what they had for breakfast, and how they want to top last year's Amare thread...almost like chat room). Unfortunately it has all the eye candy possible - avatars, pic sigs, and out of control reps that it doesn't even matter anymore imho. They actually turned all that off right now because of how many views it's getting during the trade deadline.
Most of them are a nightmare of huge avatars, picture signatures and little to no moderation (lots of monkeys flinging poo). CF.net is a shining example of a well-run forum.
http://www.wizardsextreme.com/forums/index.php Wizards Forum that I sometimes go to. 1000 times less active than ClutchFans, but then it again...it is the Wizards. I also like how ClutchFans does not allow crazy pictures in signatures and below each poster's name. It makes the threads completely cluttered and sometimes there are obscene pictures. Don't know why so many boards allow that.
