What Modern Day NBA Fanbase/Player/Team Habitual Is More Annoying than "J-E-T-S, Jets! Jets! Jets!"?

Have you ever rubbed your eyes while watching an NBA basketball game, frustrated with the incessant chants and the chronic fan routines?Yelling at the TV to stop showing the never-ending sea of signs, probably loaded with insults and jokes about your team or favorite player?Yeah, me too.There's the soothing tune that we Celtics die-hards belt out, "Beat L.A.!" which I'm sure is about as annoying as it gets for Laker fans.There's the pregame introductions in Palace Hills, which is highlighted by the rambunctious Pistons announcer, who riles up the crowd and sets the tone for a tough, gritty game, no matter who the red, white, and blue are facing.There's Kevin Garnett's chalk clap followed by a few headbangs and quiet whispers to himself under the basket, ending with a chest pump and a gallop towards the crowd. LeBron James' chalk toss and picture-taking, home-run hitting, Cavs' antics is also recognizable.Along with many more, these are among some of the traditions that annoy us to the very last bone in our body; that is of course, if we're not a fan of the producer.But there's one particularly infamous distinction you'll usually find at Jets games, and that is the chant of "J-E-T-S, Jets! Jets! Jets!" That right there is the notorious chant where obnoxious New York fsan stand up on their chairs wearing the green and white Jets jerseys, and maybe even a cheese-triangle headgear piece, and shout their lungs out.Not to mention these are the people that think the Jets, who have been known to choke these last couple of years, are the single greatest sports team on Earth.Notice how I say they've been known to choke in the last couple of years.So I've set out to find the NBA equivalent to such a vexatious incantation. Is it the one of the routines mentioned above? Will we have to delve deeper to find it? Will there even be one? We shall find out...Boston Garden tears Mike Bibby to pieces: Every time Mike Bibby sets foot in the Boston Garden, the boos immediately rained down. Bibby criticized Boston fans for being bandwagon fans the year they acquired Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen in the first round of the playoffs, as there was a clear jump in attendance once they became contenders.You could say he's a hypocrite seeing that the Hawks don't have much of an audience when they're losing too, but that's beside the point.And I certainly can see why Celtics' fans -- especially loyal ones like you and I -- would be offended. On top of that, I still cannot see why Hawks fans would not be able to relate to the disgust we possess when seeing Bibby on the court.In short, it's basically like an ignorant brand of annoyance on Atlanta's part.Like the Michael Vick dog scandal, you can only find it in Atlanta!Everywhere you go, Kobe Bryant and LeBron James get MVP votes: Of course, in Los Angeles, Kobe Bryant is practically a God for those that bleed purple and gold. The worst part is, being a guy who can't get enough of Beantown, his MVP candidacy was even brought up in Boston. No, no, that's not the worst part. This is: Celtics fans actually SUPPORTED the campaign for Bryant and the award.Maybe the majority of us are fair-weather Leprechauns. Then, when the Kobe train finally runs out of gas, we transfer over to LeBron's cab! How wonderful!We all know LeBron is a beloved figure in Cleveland. But when you go to Detroit, kick their butts, and still get a good reception (fast forward to 10:26), that's a sign that you're well-liked. And for a guy like me, who thought either Paul Pierce or Ray Allen should've won the trophy this year, that's something capable of making your veins pop in your forearm, forehead turn purple, and fists clench.Kevin Garnett's pregame circus: All Kevin Garnett has to do to aggravate a lone anti-Celtics fan is pour the powder, shake it up in his hands, fire it up, clap a couple times, and smile at the camera. A chuckle or two from the announcers is just the cherry on top.Us Celtics fans are well-aware of the abhorrence for KG outside of the clover fields in shamrock universe. Fans get upset with the taunts and attempts at tormenting a passing-by player from Garnett, so when he discovered a way to intimidate the fans, coaches, and players on purpose, The Big Ticket's pregame show became a comedic display for Boston fans and a torturous ritual for non-Celtic followers.Conclusion: I decided to cut it down to three nominees (figures two -- no make that three of them -- involve the Celtics). As I was about to discuss the Cavs' pregame "ceremony," I came to think that those frolics were merely a joke on the Cleveland team. LeBron's chalk toss was obviously a barely revised copy of Kevin Garnett's own version. The picture-taking and mock home-run hitting shared between LBJ and co-star Mo Williams is just something to laugh at, not frown at.However, the three above are solid competitors. The title and topic can be deceiving; when I say the NBA equivalent to the Jets' own tradition, I mean something of the same capacity to an NBA fan. Of course, annoying habits-wise, "J-E-T-S, Jets! Jets! Jets!" will always rule the pack. But, in terms of the parity of what the spectacles actually mean, I'd have to go with KG's demonstration.It has the most ingenuity, the most spite, out of the three mentioned.In the end, while nothing more repulsive will travel through my ears and register in my brain than the Jets' trill, the novelty of the two is just the same.
