If your team is not in the playoffs, who do you want to win

[Ivan]

A championship this year? I will be rooting for LA.

[ElNono]

A championship this year? I will be rooting for LA.

You might not even have a team in Seattle next year. If you're joining some bandwagon might aswell do it permanently.

[tlongII]

I will root for anybody BUT L.A.!

[balli]

The Jazz are in, I root for them. Atlanta is probably in, but they're doomed, so it doesn't matter. If the Jazz get bounced I'll be rooting for LA. More than anything, I just don't want to watch a Spurs WCF or Finals.

[atxrocker]

gotta root for the hornets first and rockets second. the only teams i will root against are dallas, L.A and maybe the spurs.

[Findog]

Hmm, we'll be out of the playoffs after the first round, so in order of preference of teams that actually have a shot...

1) Detroit
2) LA Lakers
3) Boston
4) New Orleans
5) San Antonio
6) Phoenix

The last two I absolutely do NOT want to see win a title, but they have a legitimate chance.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

This should be changed to "If your team is not in the playoffs after round 1..."



Because then I'd pick New Orleans

[Indazone]

If my team the Rockets get knocked out of the playoffs, I'm rooting for the Spurs. If they get knocked off, I'm going for the Pistons and anyone else against the Celtics.

:lmao

[mojorizen7]

The Jazz.

[Xylus]

Utah Jazz or New Orleans Hornets I could live with. I would not be able to endure a Lakers, Pistons, or Mavs championship.

[LakeShow]

Rockets!

[SAGambler]

If the Spurs are knocked out, then I root for the Jazz to take it all.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Detroit, Utah, New Orleans. If neither they nor the Spurs make the finals I may very well not bother to watch at all.

[JamStone]

If I weren't a Detroit fan, I would probably root for the Lakers in the West and the Celtics in the East. It's not about about the fans because the fanbases of each of those teams suck. But, I'd enjoy watching Kobe and KG do well. It's too bad Golden State probably won't make it because they would be a team I'd follow in the playoffs.

[mavsfan1000]

Suns and Celtics. Fuck the Lakers

[Xylus]

A Lakers championship would be the worst possible scenario. Fuck the Lakers.

[word]

A championship this year? I will be rooting for LA.

I'm going Utah if we get knocked off and rooting for Atlanta all the way ...to the end of the 1st round.

[manufor3]

id be rooting for NO

[Allanon]

Why Atlanta Hawks? I can't see anything about that team that would cause a non-Hawks fan to root for them?

They don't really have a likeable guy on that team that you'd root for (like Yao, Mutumbo, Turiaf, Lamar, Sheed, Caron Butler, AI, Dwight, Boykins, etc)

I ain't putting down the Hawks, I just don't know what's to like about them.

[Magic_Johnson]

Hornets or Dirk

[BonnerDynasty]

Detroit
then Utah.

Because they suck and I'd laugh my ass off if they pulled out an upset of Boston.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Spurs, Utah, Lakers, Washington

[kingsfan]

Hornets in the west, and whoever plays the fakers
Wizs and Hawks in east

[itzsoweezee]

anyone but the lakers, sons, mavs, or celtics

[TampaDude]

If the Spurs get eliminated, then I'm rooting for the Pistons.

If the Pistons get eliminated, too, then whoever is playing the Celtics in the Finals, even if it's the Mavs, Suns, or Lakers...yes, I fucking hate Boston with a passion...

[AI-square]

Spurs
