Boston is no. 11. I was wondering what you guys thought of the list.

I'm not complaining but Miami shouldn't be 13

It seems like pretty flawed methodology.

Scrolled down to "most friendly and engaged NBA fans" and saw Boston at #2... not bad, you know if Miami wasn't ranked #1... um what?

How are "friendly" and "engaged" related, anyway?

Boston has some of the most engaged fans.  At the same time, I don't think that Boston fans are particularly friendly, in general.

Not even to each other.

I thought it was a bit bizarre that State College PA was at about 183 and San Francisco was at 189ish.
