Re: 1st Round Boston vs Atlanta

It doesn't really matter what Bibby says in this series, since his team obviously has no chance at all. I can appreciate some trash talk, but the mindset behind his comments goes too far in the "you fans need to root for us no matter what we do, or else you're just bandwagon jumpers" direction. Pro athletes who feel that entitled are harder to root for, IMO. Fans of crappy teams have no other leverage to demand improvement outside of criticizing or withholding their support in some way.
