It's hard to put my finger on the exact problems but it feels worse than the typical decline of large subs.

This thread posted today in response to the protest shows a lot of what I mean: https://old.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/14cbtjv/who_here_is_in_favor_of_just_replacing_these_shit/

Mob mentality, selfishness, scapegoating, lack of critical thinking... It's just so toxic compared to where it was even a year ago.

I'm excited at the prospect of building a more positive, welcoming place here to discuss the NBA.

100%. I've been a big contributor to /r/memphisgrizzlies and before all the brigading that came with the Ja drama it was so much better than the general NBA sub. Small communities are where it's at, as long as people stay active.

The Heat sub usually is either doomers or delusionals.

pretty sure all team subs suffer from that, especially on game day

Very true. Huge doomer here.
