Aside from the Lakers’ and Magic’s on-court success, both teams are on Twitter’s Suggested Users List. This ‘gift’ from Twitter inherently launches them to the top of Sherk’s standings.

It’s a nice advantage to have, but does more for perception than actual fan engagement. Unless new Twitter users uncheck the 20 or so suggested users at the time of sign-up (there’s over 400 suggested users in total that get rotated), the Lakers and Magic, by default, yield the benefits. This, in my opinion, has nothing to do with the quality of their tweets or true size of their fan base.

Sherk hit it on the head with this statement: “While building up followers is great, it’s what you do with that following that really matters.” He goes on to offer great advice for NBA team properties using social tools: listen; interact; be compelling; provide updates; humanize your organization; get the players involved, and tie it to your goals and objectives.

Thanks for building on this article. You’ll soon see the NJ Nets jump toward the top of this list. You heard it here first.

[...] The Most Popular NBA Teams by Twitter and Facebook Fans | The Hoop Doctors 3. The Toronto Raptors at #14 is not bad. Sort of middle of the pack. But given what i’ve seen as an NBA blogger for a few years, the Raps fans seem to be everywhere. Or maybe its just that they are more vocal and rabid. Hell maybe its just because they are too busy on Raptors Republic to bother checking facebook or twitter. Either way I was surprised I didn’t see Toronto in the Top 5. [...]
