East Valley Tribune - After chiding the US Airways Center fans Tuesday for their demeanor in two of the first three regular-season home games in the wake of an emotionless win over the Knicks, Phoenix coach Mike D’Antoni didn’t back down Wednesday, expanding on his comments to remind Suns fans that 60-win seasons and deep playoff runs aren’t inalienable rights.
D’Antoni said he also wasn’t happy when the fans booed his team in the home opener when they were blitzed 119-98 by the Lakers.
“(I vented about the fans) because the fans deserved it, said D’Antoni, a day after describing Tuesday’s crowd as “deader than we are" when his team struggled to put away the short-handed Knicks. “If they’re going to boo us, hell, what’s the difference, I can boo them."
“(Tuesday), they didn’t come ready. You have to come every game, you have to bring it … and they didn’t bring it. There was no atmosphere. Everybody — us, them — was just kind of down and blah and there’s not reason to be."
http://www.eastvalleytribune.com/story/102037Er that's not smart going after fans like that- boo the fans who pay help pay your big fat salary??? Wow- I wouldn't be surprise to see some backlash from these remarks. I guess the guy is some sort of a vengeful person

F' the fans.
Booing players because they're assholes off the field/court is one thing, but you don't do it just because the team struggles.

Philadelphia Eagles and Chicago Bears disagree with your wisdom.

The Eagles are the masters of mediocrity, inheriting the title after the Dolphins passed it over to them.

Philadelphia in general is infamous as having fans with the worst behavior of any professional league sports town in the United States.
