I dislike la never like dallas, but I am a fan of the NBA.
How do I enjoy the rest of the Playoffs? I will pull against lA and dallas and hope they get beat, and the Spurs lost will be a wash for me.

Cleveland I guess...
Cavs 2009 champs
Magic in the East. I could give a flying fuck about anyone else. I hope they all lose.
Um..Chicago...Denver maybe? thought I hate K Mart, I wouldn't mind Billups getting a ring and shoving it in Detroit's faces. When my team is out in a sport, I root for the underdog usually.
The Astros!
who gives a fuck?
I want portland to win but i think they'll lose in houston so they'll be out. So im going to root for gasp denver next round against dallas and whoever plays dallas. Sadly if houston moves on which i think they probably will they will get swept by la, portland actually could push them to 6 or 7 games. Hopefully denver can beat dallas and give LA a series. On the East side I could give a flying fuck , just want cleveland to make the finals.
Nobody, neutral observer
Cleveland...how can you not like lebron?
nuuuugggzzzz
I'll like the underdogs.
That Boston-Chicago series is so much fun! Reminds me of that Dallas-Golden State first round game in 2007.
I think I'm gonna go with the Nuggets. As scary as that sounds. lol
Last time I cheared for them was way back when the beat seatle in the first round.
Cavs or Magic.
im rooting for one team in the 2nd round and thats the ass nuggets and either portland or houston, beyond that i could care less.
Anybody but Lakers.
But i will probably end up rooting for Cavs.
At this point, I'd just like to see enjoyable games. The Boston/Chicago series has been amazing to watch. Seeing Denver dismantle Dallas and present some challenge to LA might be fun if it happens.
Go Rockets
Anyone but LA or Dallas
TP not get hurt in the offseasonQuote:
Now who do you pull for
spurs lost the playoffs are over time to drink beer and bar-b-q
denver
I'm cool with the Magic winning. Houston too, only I'd rather the spurs go after Artest and I doubt he leaves if he gets any further than the 2nd round. Fuck everybody else.
Rockets
manu and duncan to get 100% this offseason
Easy...he travels...he gets away with it...he fouls..he gets away with it...he tattooed "The Chosen One" on his back.Quote:

No one. I'll just update myself by checking the scoreboards every now and then.
I might watch some games, that is if I have nothing better to do.
I'm not rooting for or against anyone. I hope the rest of that Chicago/Boston series is as amazing as the first five games though. I hope it doesn't end with a boring game like 06 Suns/Lakers.

Cleveland in the East, and the elimination of the Lakers in the West....whoever comes out of the West I'm rooting against... I don't want a Western Conference team to be the Champion.
Blazers, Bulls, Magic. Pretty much anyone besides Fakers Cavs or Boston
Cleveland over Denver in 6. Book it.
And I'd love every minute of it.
Rockets or Portland, whoever wins.
I'm rooting for the economy now. Will stop paying attention to the NBA until October and focus on real life.
Denver is who I bet on to win it all, even though imo LAL is the safe bet. But the Cavs have an easy path, a la Celtics 08.Quote:

Strangely, the Nuggets because I love Chauncey, Nene and Birdman, and enjoy watching JR "Trainwreck" Smith both when he's on and when he's off. I think they have a small shot at beating the Lakers if they are healthy.
But I think the Cavs will take the trophy.
Bulls
Hawks
Nuggets
Cavs

Nene baby!!! Birdman getting a ring would be hilarious, cuz I know he'll pawn it for some crack after he's had it a week.:lolQuote:

In the East, go Cavs!
My remaining order of preference:
1. Chicago -- my home state, always my team after the Spurs.
2. Cleveland -- Because LeBron is the real deal, and I would love to see him shut some of the haters up around here.
3. Atlanta -- What's not to love about the players on this team?
4. Portland -- What they did earlier this year was annoying, but I really like Roy and the players they're putting around him.
5. Orlando -- Eh. Howard's cool.
6. Houston -- This team is ok, except T-Mac, who's a punk.
7. Denver -- Well, I don't hate them now that they have Billups. But Carmelo is also a punk.
8. Miami -- Bleh. Boring.
9a. New Orleans -- As much as CP3 has game, he's annoying as hell. He needs to look at some of the more mature players in the league and figure out how to conduct himself like a real superstar should.
9b. Philly -- I hate all Philly sports teams because they have the worst fans in pro sports, and don't deserve a single championship.
10. Dallas -- Don't get me started.
11. Boston -- REALLY don't get me started.
12. Lakers -- Need to DIAF, already.
DIAF = Die in a fire?
i couldn't care less which team wins the trophy this season.
As long as Lakers are beaten it doesn't matter.
If Lakers win put an asterick after their title--did not have to face Tim, Tony AND MANU
The local Hawks are my #2. May they make the Cavs path as hard as they made the Celtics path in 2008.
I love basketball, I love the game, Spurs are my number one, but my second fav team is the CAvs, so I hope they get the championship, and they will, they are playing like gods, they will for sure.
Otherwise, I would also not mind to see Miami taking it, but thats not gonna happen
I'm finding a big thrill in watching the Baby Bulls give Boston such a hard time. I would love to see them go to the next round. Honestly, I know it would not happen, but I'd like to see Dallas beat LA. That's how much I dislike LA.
CAVS all the way
I won't be upset if Dallas were to do well. They were the better team, AND on top of that gave us fits when we were 100% healthy. I was alot more destraught how we lost to them the last time in the playoffs. I will probably pull the the 76ers since they are huge underdog.
anyone that can beat the lakers.
Denver. They're an underdog that plays hard and smart every night.Quote:

Sure, it's bad D to let him keep getting there as it is obviously one of his sweet spots on the floor, but still, they were all swishes, freakin money the whole way. It was clutch shooting of the highest order.
At various times Pierce, Ben Gordon, Rose, Allen and Rondo have all lit that series up. It's the best first round series since the Warriors pantsed the Mavs.
Nobody....

Denver. I'm from Denver originally, and after they got rid of Iverson I allowed myself to like the Nuggets again. Billups is the man, and you have to love a team that's been consistently embarrassing CP3 game after game.
Chicago. I've liked the Bulls for a while, and it was nice to see them get a boost when they acquired Salmons and Miller. The Bulls/Celtics series has been some fucking fantastic basketball.
Atlanta. They have a long ways to go, but I love their lineup, their athleticism and their energy.
Philadelphia. I just love watching the two Andres play.
If all of these teams get eliminated, I'll root for whoever is playing against the Lakers or Cavs. If it winds up with those two being in the Finals, I'm not likely to tune in.
Boston Celtics.
I'll rank mine as:
Rooting for:
1) Houston
2) Denver
3) Atlanta
4) Orlando
Couldn't care less:
5) Portland
6) Philadelphia
7) Chicago
8) Miami
9) Cleveland
10) New Orleans
Hope they go to hell:
11) Boston
12) LA
13) Dallas
Cleavland or Chicago...whoever can beat the Lakers.
I like the Cavs.
I like Chauncey, but he is the only one. Orlando and Chicago are cool with me. I will root for Boston over the lakers only.
I will never root for the lakers or mavs. :flipoff:pimpslap
Anyway, I took an anti-depressant :depressed so I am feeling a a little better :lol
:flag:

Since when was the #2 seed the underdog?Quote:

Instead of being humbled by their failures, they choose to trash talk and disrespect duncan and the spurs. I have never once heard timmy tell the media that a team does not want to see him in the playoffs. He has respect for the game and for himself. I accept laker fans talking trash to me because they have hardware:lobt2:, but the mavs and their fans.Quote:

I've stopped watching almost completely. Not really interested in any of the other teams. If I come across a game while watching TV maybe I'll watch the last 2 minutes if its a close game but that's it. I did the same during the regular season when the Spurs weren't playing so nothing really new. Stern's worst nightmare. It will be a long offseason.
You're way too picky. :)Quote:

nobody, I'm just going to enjoy the rest of the playoffs, and look forward to next season.
I hate them all and hope nobody wins. But Lakers are gonna win.
Bulls as a long-shot.
Cavs, realistically to make people realize that LeBron is better than Kobe.
No one.
Screw the NBA.
I'll be rooting for Pacman this weekend. =p
