What makes the NBA so big is its huge fanbase. Without the supporters, basketball arenas would never be loud. Fans root for their franchises year-long. However, with their hearts attached, one wrong move can turn fans into the worst of enemies. Surprisingly, despite their recent disappointments, the Los Angeles Lakers seem to have a positive fanbase.

For the past three seasons, the Laker Nation has watched their franchise struggle. Notably, they last made the playoffs in 2021. In addition, despite the visible roster worries, Rob Pelinka has made no major moves. Currently the 12th seed, Lakers fans have shouted out their concerns. Moreover, the 17-time champs arguably have had many supporters give up.

However, all these things seem to be nothing in the face of other franchise fanbases. Notably, a recent list revealed the most negative fans in the NBA. Shockingly, the Lakers didn?t even cut.

The Lakers not among top 10 negative fanbases?

Not just the Lakers but even the Boston Celtics couldn?t get into the Top 10. Celtics fans are currently enjoying their position as title contenders and reigning finalists. However, a huge part of their loyal fanbase arguably goes to their history. Both these big market organizations are the most successful franchises. In addition, the Lakers also are home to LeBron James. The King might have many critics, but with his inching close to the all-time scoring record, the positive light is shining on the Lakers.

On the other hand, the Knicks have a history of fans turning on them. Miami fans have been desperately calling for a trade. As for the Warriors, the champions are barely cracking the playoffs this season. Likewise, all the fans have a reason to lash out.
