So without the Spurs in the playoffs....Who is your 2nd team?

[Dex]

It's been a long, long time since we haven't been able to cheer on the Spurs for at least one round of playoff games...and those were always the most exciting ones.

Since our offseason has already officially started, who you got?

Personally, I'm going for the underdog story with Portland. They have the tools and are playing well, so they seem the most likely to upset somebody. Lillard has been loyal to that city and deserves a ring.

Close second would be Coach Bud and Milwaukee...although Giannis headbutting a guy in a game isn't a good look for him.

[Dejounte]

Lets see... Fuck both LA teams, first of all.

Rooting for Bucks, Raptors, and Nuggets

[BillMc]

Anyone who stops Nephew.

[Seventyniner]

As always, with the Spurs out of the playoffs I won't be watching any of the games. I almost never watch any games that don't involve the Spurs anyway, except sometimes other playoff games while the Spurs are still in the playoffs.

If I got to pick the winners I guess I'd go with Milwaukee over Denver in the "Finals". Though that would make my pipe dream of the Spurs getting both Giannis and Coach Bud next summer basically impossible.

[NameLess Scrub]

No Spurs means I can enjoy the playoffs in a more general way.

As always have a hard time liking the Lebrons or Westbrook/Hardens, but several of the other teams are fun to watch.

Denver and Toronto have some talent doing good thins together. Milwaukee seems ready for the Finals. Suns and Blazers both look like they could go to war with the Lakers, etc

[LongtimeSpursFan]

Spurs East....Bucks. Then Toronto

[RD2191]

Clippers, easily.

[SAGirl]

It’s kind of refreshing to watch the playoffs and not be attached to anybody in particular. I have watched a few of the Portland games and they have no defense. They have struggled containing everyone and that’s why they have had to win games at the last second. They are a paper tiger IMO, though Lillard is an Assassin and it’s easy to root for a guy who wants to win that badly. Frankly I don’t have any favorites or anything. I am going to just enjoy live competitive basketball and get a peak at these playoff teams I didn’t watch during the season.

[LaMarcus Bryant]

Anybody but the Lakers

[Biggems]

The Bad Boys......always my 2nd favorite team.

[Robz4000]

I hope the Rona pays a visit to the bubble soon.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Honestly I’d only be ok with Milwaukee winning. As spurs fans We can’t have the LA teams Houston and Utah winning for sure

[itzsoweezee]

The Blazers for sure. Dame is the people's champ, more than any player in the league. But if be happy if any team other than the Lakers or clippers win.

[GAustex]

I hope the Rona pays a visit to the bubble soon.

[RC_Drunkford]

definitely rooting for the Bucks, fuck both LA teams

[hitmantb]

Unpopular opinion:

Kawhi is the true heir of Tim Duncan, wins over stats, just massive impact in the game even if he is not the most unstoppable 1v1 player. He also learned from LeBron James to control his own destiny, not settle for a garbage team after that atrocious, franchise killing Gasol/Mills contract.

As a result I will always be rooting for him, because watching him brings back all the good memories of the 2014 title. I am not suggesting he is totally innocent or anything, but I would love a third FMVP and more importantly, stops LeBron from getting the tie breaker over Duncan. I think LeBron is extremely overrated and basically a super luxury version of Westbrook, empty stats, stacked rosters, very few rings given the talent he put together.

[SpurPadre]

Any team that goes against Load Management.

[paperboy77]

Always had the Mavs as my #2. Also, fuck both LA teams and go Grizzlies today. Such a bizarre, asterisk worthy season.

That's not true. One of the reasons he wanted to leave the Spurs is because he felt Pop held back his scoring. Pop held Duncan back from being a guy who could get 27-30 a night but you never saw Duncan complain about it because he wanted to win. He has nothing in common with Duncan other than being an introvert. He's a guy who wants to be like Lebron in the sense have his brand, and have his own LRMR like Lebron except be the introvert version of him. He is a diva just like Lebron evident the way he handled his FA last summer with stunt him and his Uncle pulled. I would say even evident now with the load management bs that he continuously pulls. Great player I will acknowledge that perhaps even the best player in the league when he wants to play but him and Lebron are from the same side of the coin and that's why I will never root for either.

He controlled his own destiny alright... By fucking breaking his contract by doing all the possible shady ass shit you can do to do it. Absolutely nothing like how LeBron handled it. Funny how Kawhi just manipulated the media to forget his actions throughout all that drama.

[4lifecowboy]

Dame Lillard...

[Manu-of-steel]

Raptors. I want Anunoby on spurs if thats possible

[kht]

Anyone but the LA teams...

[spurs10]

Anyone who stops Nephew. Yeah in the end same here. Love to see the Blazers do well, but also I'm concerned about who would best beat Scumbag. I've been rooting for the Bucks, however Dex is right about the head butting...not a good look.

[R. DeMurre]

Milwaukee... I like the way they've built their team, and it'd be cool if George Hill got a ring. They'd also be the 4th different championship team in 5 years, which would be nice for a league that two years ago many said had no parity.

[Nivek_ogre]

Raptors, Blazers, Bucks, Mavericks, Nuggets in that order

[alpha_HaZE]

Currently am glad to watch the playoffs and enjoy seeing b-ball :)

I would like to root for the Nuggets, I love the way they play, but not after they played Jokic against us and rested him in the 4th against the Blazers! That sucked. I know it was mostly because of the refs not allowing Jakob anywhere near him and then they let Nurk beat him up. So it understandable, but still, Mike Malone should have done us a solid. They had nothing to win or lose.

My main team on the west right now is Dallas because of Luca, and then Kawhi and the Clippers.

Also, I will be rooting for OKC against the Rockets, because why not, it would be so much fun to see them lose but I doubt it.

Lastly, as much as I want to root against the Lakers, I can't because of Danny Green.

On the east, it is Bucks all the way.

[LakerHater]

for these playoffs, Ima go Bucks!!

Anyone but the LA teams!

[ZeusWillJudge]

Raptors for obvious reasons as any real spurs fans should

:tu Brazil sees through the haze. Love to hear them try to explain how they got #2 without the Autist.

[BackHome]

Any team that is playing against the Flakers.

[MVPCues]

1. Dallas. I don't hate them and that would mean they sent nephew packing in the first round.
2. Toronto. Obvious repeat in your face reasons.
3. Bucks. Coach...
4. Anyone in the East.

I hope the Rona pays a visit to the bubble soon.

Dallas - It has everything to do with Luka. Love to see that kid play.

2. Denver - I like Jokic's game.
3. Toronto - Win without Nephew & spoil his legacy in some way.
4. Bucks - Bud
5. Anyone but Lebron - Can't stand him or unibrow
6. Anyone but Newphew - Obvious reasons. Great player though & love to see him play but yeah...he dicked-over this city something harsh and set it back a few years.

[pookenstein]

Celtics, but that's not happening. So as for the teams who I think have a legit chance to win it all I'm going with:
1. Raps
2. Bucks
3. Denver
4. Clippers

I fucking hate the Lakers and the Rockets, so I'd live with Kawhi winning one more.

I just can't cheer for Nephew.

Yes, the damage has been done and life goes on...but a major part of the reason we are in our current position is PATFO tried to build around Kawhi, and he fucked us over. We are still recovering and trying to rebuild a team that was made for him.

Giving away Green was really the kick in the balls...but that just shows that the Spurs had no leverage in that trade.

I don't like to dwell on the past...but I sure as hell won't be rooting for him either.

[MultiTroll]

Clipps. I still have fond memories of Pat Bev getting up in Steffi Currys face when the MSM was hyping the Warriors. Kwa for a record setting 3 legit Championships with 3 teams -none of them coatailing- would be nice too.

Raptors. Excellent job they have done.

Other then that no one i really hate this year like previous Kome ABC/Disney Productions, Warriors.

LeBron I would be okay with but not this years Flamers with Anthony Davis, Kuzma.

[DMC]

I don't care who wins. Illegitimate season should have been aborted.

[lefty]

Raptors (go Canada) and Clippers (go Kawhi!)

I also like Denver but only because Jokic is a joy to watch

[lefty]

:tu Brazil sees through the haze. Love to hear them try to explain how they got #2 without the Autist.

because other players improved this season?

Kawhi was not the only reason they won the title, it’s a team sport, but they needed his clutch plays

Bitter Sperm fans have selective memory SMH

[TD 21]

I don't have one, but I'd be fine with the Bucks or Lakers winning. Not that they really have a chance, but I could even stand the Celtics or Rockets. Anyone but the Clippers or Raptors, which will probably be the Finals.

Clippers go without saying. Raptors for their overt arrogance/luck/shtick.

Nets will be fun to watch next year (mostly to watch Durant and Kyrie implode or try to kill each other)...but they have no chance even in the East this year.

[Spursfanfromafar]

The Bubble has been host to some of the best non-postseason basketball that I have watched in a long time. The games are surprisingly competitive, the rookies especially played without fear and professionalism was at a high.

I would root, of course for the man who wants some "respect put on his name" who was the Bubble Seeding games MVP. Dude represents the very opposite of the gang-me-up-with the winning combination mindset. The Blazers dont have a wing to stop LeBron and might crash out in the first round, but Terry Stotts is a likeable coach, Lillard is all Chutzpah and McCollum and Nurkic are good players to watch.

If the Blazers dont last beyond the first round, I would root for Coach Bud and the Greek Freak.

Third place for me goes to the Nuggets. Jokic is such a pleasure to watch. The smartest big man on the planet who plays the game at his own pace. Reminds me of Duncan with Diaw's passing abilities on offense.

[TimDunkem]

Anyone but LAL or Portland. Nothing against Portland, but I'm bitter watching the media and NBA fans suck off Dame and the team every year just for them to find new ways to choke and be a disappointment. Enough already. I'd rather have seen the Suns in there, who would lose, but at least bring a new flavor to the playoffs. I'd much rather watch that than watch the same C.J. and Dame show that always seems to anti-climatically end in the first or second round (or they chuck their way to the WCF where they inevitably disappoint).

Seen that show for 7 years now, and I'm quite tired of it, tbh.

To be fair, Portland has had some bad luck with injuries the last few years. This time...they are pretty much fully healthy so they don't have that excuse.

I still think they are a long-shot to win, but between MEM, NOP, SAC, PHX, and even SAS....I think they could do the most damage if they stay hot.

I wanted the Spurs to make the playoffs to keep the streak alive, but it would have been another frustrating first round exit.

That's fair, but they'll need Dame and C.J. to be on every single game. I just don't see it happening. The core is rotten to begin with, tbh.

[TD 21]

The Trail Blazers are not "pretty much fully healthy". They have no credible 3 and D wings without Ariza and Hood, McCollum is playing through a back injury, Collins just got an ankle injury and they had to blow their load and are running on fumes just to get to this point.

I don't dislike them, but I somewhat agree. I found myself going for the Grizzlies just because of the media cheerleading for the Trail Blazers.

I've talked about it plenty, but the media coverage in this league has become mostly disgraceful. Filled with agenda and bias and short on professionalism.

You are hitting troll levels here, lefty. Stop fucking around.

Let's forget about the obvious here (Parker, Manu, Kawhi....all drafted 15th or later and will end up being Hall of Famers).

We'll just go back the last 10 years or so....you've got Ian Mahinmi, Gary Neal, Garrett Temple, Cory Joseph, JaMychal Green, Aron Baynes, Jonathan Simmons, Davis Bertans, Boban, etc etc.

Not to mention the current cases of Murray, White, Walker, and maybe Johnson who should go on to have productive NBA careers (even without the Spurs).

Sure, there were some misses in the draft and they weren't all stars, but that's what happens when you are drafting 25th-30th in the first round for 20 consecutive years.

Still, the Spurs did their best to pluck those diamonds from the rough of the deep draft (or even D-League) and made them NBA players.

You can be pissed off about our current situation, but stop acting like the past never happened.

Giannis with another physical foul down 13 with 25 seconds left after he missed a free throw.

Not quite the nice guy he makes himself out to be...

I honestly see him leaving Milwaukee if they fail to ring. All these star players are the same divas.

Scary thing for the Lakers is that the Blazers didn't even put up one of those crazy games they are used to have from the 3pt line.

[Barfunk]

Yeah, pretty much any team but the Lakers and Clippers (Or any of the douchebag markets that ESPN is holding in their load for). I'll root for Houston since since I've got some family out there. Dame seems like a real dude, so I wouldn't be too upset if the Blazers chip. Also wouldn't mind if Utah or Dallas rings.

[DAF86]

Ranked from "least I want to win" to "I think this team is the one that would bother me the least":

1-Lakers
2-Rockets
3-Clippers
4-Mavs (preempitve measure. Something tells me we will be hating on the Mavs for quite a bit)
5-Blazers
6-Nuggets
7-Jazz
8-Thunder

Neither team from the East would really bother me. It would be funny if the Raptors repeat though.

[weeks]

wouldnt mind seeing the guests finally ring tbh.
dame is playing lights out, hard to see this carrying through for an entire post-season run

[Robz4000]

If the Guests somehow ring that'll end any discussion about LMA going back to Portland. Not sure how I'd feel about that.

[Manong Ginobili]

It has been 3015 days since the Lakers' last playoff win on May 18, 2012. Props to the Blazers for extending that at least another couple of days.

Agreed...I don't know how anyone around here who seriously calls themselves a Spurs fan can cheer for that team.

Even Paul George is a snake who abandoned OKC so he could go buddy up with Kawhi, and Patrick Beverly has always been asshole who thinks he is more talented than he really is. Suddenly he likes to talk a lot of shit now that he has Kawhi and PG backing him up.

[Dex]

Nuggets looking like crap...down 31 in the 4th.

They were lucky to steal Game 1 after Mitchell dropped 57 on them.

Utah Jazz, I love watching Donovan Mitchell ball and I'd like to see Gobert redeem himself for being the one that helped steer us into this mess. :lol

[BillMc]

How is a player named Duncan Robinson not a Spur?

[BatManu20]

1. Celtics

2. Anybody but the Lakers or Clippers

[SAGirl]

I have been watching the mavs series. Luka Doncic... love him.

[Seventyniner]

He should have picked jersey #71.

[BillMc]

Ha ha. Great. :flag:

How embarrassing that would be after we gave tlong shit for LMA leaving the Guests back in 2015.

[lefty20]

It's a three way tie between Bucks, Blazers & Mavs. They are the only teams I'll be actively rooting for. Lakers and Clippers are the only teams I'll be actively rooting against. And I honestly dgaf about any other team.

To be fair Beverly has always talked a lot of shit even when he didn't play on stacked teams. I do agree he is a POS.

[KobesAchilles]

I think Boston is my second team. I really love their culture and the way they play. I literally can't cheer for any of the contenders in the West. Fuck the Lakers and the Clips and Rockets. I'm also not too keen about the Mavs even though I like Luka but Cuban and the 06' series still leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. Denver sucks, your best player just can't be Jokic and you expect to contend, he isn't good enough defensively. And the Jazz will really miss Bojan when they face the Clips.

Still terrible defense on the step back or any jumper for that matter.

Do @NBA (https://twitter.com/NBA/) players realize guarding like this doesn't effect your lateral movement....


Plus the shooter will always have the reaction time advantage, if your hands are already up, it takes that part out of the equation on the close out.

I look at it like this. While Laker fans are annoying douchebags, Clipper fans are non-existent. So it's easy to root for them if it comes down to those two in the Western Conference Finals. I'll still cheer any Eastern team over scumbag tho.
