Do the Pelicans have the most "meh" fanbase?

I cant even find pelicans shirts to buy. Compared to the Lakers, Celtics, Mavs, Warriors, or Cavs, no one really gives a shite about the pelicans. No spirit, frick it.
Ive seen more hype for Scotlandville games or YMCA youth games in BR.

You'll get a decent amount of bites.

I'm not sure what the point of this thread is. You won't find anyone that says we have a great fanbase.
You can find the shirts easily though.

Well yeah, how much success have those teams had the past decade compared to the Pelicans/Hornets?
Warriors gear was no where to be found pre-2014

1. the population center is pretty small.
2 there is no history of success. Jazz or Pels
so yes, the fanbase is meh.
I saw a poll once that has 27% of Americans as fans of basketball.
If you are looking at NYC, you have a base of maybe 5 or 6 million people - 25% of the 17 or 20 million in the region, all of 5 million grew up watching the game, many in person with a parent or uncle.
Chicago won championships and they have 6 million in the area.
LA won championships and they have 10 million in LA county
Boston won championships for generations and have many more people than New Orleans.
Philadelphia has championships in several decades. so the fans have seen greatness.
I was pissed when Utah took the Jazz AND the name. They should not have the name.

I saw an AD shirt some guy had on in a grocery store parking lot last night. It was a "Fear the brow" shirt. I live about thirty minutes from Portland fwiw. I was amazed. First AD gear I've seen anybody wear out here.

Lakers, Celtics
Historic teams with a lot of tradition and fan support. Probably the two "blue blood" NBA teams

Mavs, Warriors, or Cavs
All have enjoyed recent championships. I'm not saying they don't have good "atmospheres" but every team will have bandwagon fans and more people showing up and providing "atmosphere" when they are chasing/contending for titles.

Maybe because football season is about to start
