All Aboard the Magic Carpet Ride

[50 cent]

Screw the Cavs and all the overblown Lebron hype.

Let's Root for DRob v2.0 to take his team to the title.

Who's with me?

[Stump]

I've been rooting for Orlando to win the east since before SA was knocked out. So yeah, count me in.

[Ditty]

Are you fucking kidding me? Yeah I'm all in...anyone but the lakers. But Howard has a long way to go before he's even DRob v0.5

[tomtom]

I've been all for the Magic since the beginning of the season. GO MAGIC!

[Texas_Ranger]

Before the playoffs started I was already for the Magics, if the Spurs lose...So GO MAGIC!!!

can't use a title like that without attribution

You should root for your own conference, it just comes off as hating when you don't

[AussieFanKurt]

yeah lets go Magic, i'd hate to see Kobe win another ring

[Bukefal]

not if its the lakers :lol

I rooted for the Cavs, now, I dont like Magic, but I dislike the Fakers badly, so, Go Magic!! :toast

[m33p0]

too bad Nuggs couldn't get in. Go Magic!

[Big P]

I am down with this.

[spurtech09]

deadly dynasty im down with those soccer babes on your profile but not with the lakers lol...go magic all the way

[duncan228]

King Nothing Lebron is a sore loser. Can't even congratulate the better team and doesn't even give interviews after the game like he usually does.

For what it's worth, LeBron spoke today.

[EricB]

overhype LeBron?

Wow....

[Thompson]

I've been for the Magic since the Spurs were knocked out. Didn't think they'd make it this far, but I'm glad I was wrong. I'll root for them vs. the Lakers of course.

As far as LeBron goes, he's a great player and he's overhyped.

Magic was the team I wanted to come out of the East ever since. GO MAGIC!!!!

Hell yah fuck las lakers!!!!!!!

[sammy]

I've been rooting for the Magic from the beginng! Got sick of the Lebron hype and their stupid antics with photo camera crap! Glad to see them gone from the playoffs! Orlando plays team ball! Dwight Howard is my favorite player outside my Spurs! He's awesome! So athletic and if he could team up with Timmy, boy can you imagine what he could learn from the best Power Forward ever! That is just a dream, but the Fakers are going to have alot a problems with the Magic! They have no answer for Superman! I see the Magic taking out the over-rated, over hyped, underachieving sense of entitlement Fakers in 6!:toast

Never understood this logic. The only team I want to see winning from my team's conference is....well....my team. Glad the Magic sent Frontrunner James packing and I hope they can do the same to the Lakers.

[DrHouse]

You gotta have WC pride. Root for your conference. I'd root for the Spurs if they advanced. I'm quite sure the Spur players themselves would root for the Lakers, I believe Bowen was quoted last year as saying something to the effect of make our conference proud after Game 5 was over.

I can understand why Spur fans don't though because of what the Lakers have done to them since their franchise's inception.

To me, there is no such thing as Western Conference pride. If you play on a team outside of the Spurs in the Western Conference, with all due respect, screw you. Hell, I'm a Seahawks fan and I hate the Pissburgh (spelled like that on purpose) Stealers (also spelled like that on purpose) for their thievery of Super Bowl *XL, but guess what, when they were facing the Cardinals for the title last season I rooted for them like they were the hottest thing going. Why? Because I couldn't stand the thought of a team in my division winning the title outside of my team....just makes no sense. I've been for the Magic ever since they started to play Boston, but if it ain't the Spurs, it ain't nobody in my book. Regardless of the season your team had or how they ultimately lost, it makes your team seem that much more inadequate when ANOTHER team in your division/conference wins the whole thing.

Negative. This rule doesn't apply when it concerns rivalries. Lord knows I would never in a million years root for the Mavs either if they got to the Finals again.

This would be like a Cowboys fan (which I am) rooting for either the Giants, Eagles, or Redskins. I remember getting on a number of Cowboys fans for choosing to root for the Giants in the Super Bowl vs. the Patriots. I would have rather seen the Patriots finish 19-0, lol.

This also would be like asking a Packers fan to root for the Vikings in the Super Bowl and vice versa.

Where 's that written? Some ridiculous Laker rule?

And what's wrong with hating a team? Or hate in itself...the world thrives on it.
Respect and loyalty are earned not entitled. Go read some more headlnes.

Goofy ass California political correctness.

After the way the Lakers played Houston, they're an embarrassment to the West.

What team (other than the Celtics) has done more to the Lakers than the Spurs?

Like closing down the Fabulous Forum with a four game sweep in '99?

Or ending the Lakers' longest title streak on their home floor in '03 -- the first team to beat the Lakers in a series at Staples.

Or winning three championships since the Lakers won their last?

That said, the only team I would consider rooting against in a Finals series vs the Lakers is Orlando. The Lakers have done their share of harm to the Spurs, but they never tried to steal our franchise player with a luxury charter and a Disneyland trip. :)

[NewJerSpur]

Duncan ultimately didn't leave for Orlando, and to me it's more on the player than the organization.

[JWest596]

Jealousy?,

I'm not on some Laker fan site looking for love, support and respect trolling for my team criticizing other fans because you cannot find it.

Are you going to cry? Go have your circle jerk elsewhere.

That's just insecure, sad and pathetic. The fact remains I as a person owe the Lakers dick. Pathetic Laker troll are all alike.

Agree! Outside of the Spurs, the Magic earn my respect the most. Dwight Howard is good. Other than the Spurs' big three, he is my most favorite. Go Magic Go!

He is already in a final's!!

It will be number 10 if it happens as Minneapolis won 5 in Minnrdota, that's another city in Minnesota. Big Difference. NOT YOURS

That's why people call LA "Fakers". there's a reason and jealousy or hate have nothing to with it.

It's called "Truth in advertising".

Pathetic. Why are Laker fans even in a thread in the Spurs side of the Forum that has nothing to do with the Lakers?

Laker fans are obsessed with every other team and their fans. This a thread about supporting the Magic.

You are a Laker fan, so leave the thread. It is pathetic.

Lakers have an 8-2 record overall against the Spurs in the playoffs.

You guys are finally on board, eh? :D

[resistanze]

Why does Laker Fan care so much about Spurs Fan approval?

[Russ]

Lakers have an 8-2 record overall against the Spurs in the playoffs.

The Spurs won in '95, '99 and '03, so like most Laker "historians," you're wrong about easily accessed facts.

But to address your point, the Lakers have had great success against all teams. My point was, who (other than Boston) has done more to the Lakers? :)

[rascal]

Give it up believing any other team but the lakers will win this year. You're just wasting your time.

The lakers are winning this year. It has been so obvious since last years finals that the Lakers would be back in the finals and win it all this year.

the "franchise" has won 15...but nevermind all that.

Let's just go with 10, like you said. 10>4. Lakers 4-1 vs Spurs this decade and 8-2 overall in playoff history. We owned you in the past, in the present, and most certainly in the future (we are young, SA is old).

Thanks for playing. Next...

If the Houston Oilers had won a super bowl and Tennessee had claimed it just cause they got the franchise I would be PISSED. The only difference is they were smart enough to change names and your team kept their's for some fucked up reason (LA has lakes?). That's about as illogical as the 'San Antonio Celtics' or the 'Minnesota Hurricanes'

You haven't won 10 yet. Los Angeles was in existence for 16 years before the Spurs joined the the NBA. And Bill Russel will AWAYS own LA. You are one of only two teams that has a losing record against the Bobcats.
Michael Jordan beats Kobe from the front office...quite a feat.

The Spurs have had the best winning percentage in all 4 major sports since Tim Duncan came aboard. The Spurs have had the fewest lottery teams of any other NBA team. We have always been competitive and no one does more with less.

Poor Laker fans trolling other team boards looking for love and acceptance. It's usually the way of bastard children.

There is no debate that the Lakers are a more prestigious franchise than the Spurs but that still doesn't change the fact that your superstar is an admitted adulterer accused of sexual assault. AND, after only 2 mediocre seasons he wanted to leave LA even though he had 3 rings with that franchise. Great team player? :rolleyes

As far as the cheating is concerned, I think we've all cheated on a girl at some point. Doesn't make us bad people cause we did one thing wrong.

Call me old fashioned, but cheating on women is never a good thing. His wife was trusting enough to marry him even though he was a big NBA star and knew that women in other cities would be trying to get him to whip it out. That shows a large degree of character and serious faith in their relationship. The fact that he betrayed that trust is disgusting. Any woman that is capable of putting such complete faith in me is damn worthy of my honoring it.

king nothing lebron is a sore loser. Can't even congratulate the better team and doesn't even give interviews after the game like he usually does. He believed that hype every "expert" spewed out of their mouths. He thought they were just going to hand over the trophy to him. His true colors came out. You will never win a ring king nothing and that makes me happy. So throw your pixie dust in the air, bust your half court shots and take your family pictures before the game with your over confident, arrogant, classless self and continue to lose in the playoffs. That will be fine by me, but please change your number 23 because you don't deserve it. The next jordan. Haha. He's not even the next pippen.:flipoff:fishing

[holcs50]

Im with ya 50! I posted awhile ago, after the spurs lost I will be rooting for whoever is playing the lakers for many reasons which I've already written about over and over and don't feel like being a broken record. As for who I wanted to win the Cavs/Magic series, really a toss up, I wanted the team that would put up the best challenge, and after seeing the cavs supporting cast get exposed over and over I definitely think the magic will have the best chance. I got two benjis riding on this with LA fans/friends.

Going to be interesting to see what comes out, if the magic can take advantage of the lakers off-games unlike the nuggets did early in that series then they got a good shot....unless the lakers play every game like they did that close out game which would put the lakers easily over the magic...but that won't happen, maybe 1/2 games they play that good.

Anyways go Rashard, go DHoward/Drob v0.5, and shit even go turk you ugly mofo, ha. C'mon Magic, get it done.

[pauls931]

I was on the cavs wagon until I got a good look at the preferential treatment they got from the refs and immediately switched to the magic carpet.

It is virtually impossible to go throughout life without having done something someone else considers a terrible offense. Nothing that I have done in my life is as disgraceful as betraying family though.
