Who do you have more hate for?

jazz. malone is the biggest douche to have ever played the game, stockton has a stupid haircut, and hornacek has a stupid face.

Once Terry is gone, I won't hate the Mavs at all really.

1. Bullets of the '70s
2. Lakers of any era
3. Jazz
4. Mavs
5. Rockets of any era

Mavs now (I'm including the entire Dirk era in this)

Yes, I HATED the '90s Jazz passionately. BUT, they never cost the Spurs a championship the way the '06 Mavs did. That Mavs team is the only thing that prevented a Spurs three-peat*, which would have put to rest all the "quasi" dynasty smack.

A title in '06 would have put the Spurs equal with the Lakers with a three-peat in the same decade. And with the Spurs' greater success throughout the rest of the decade, SA instead of LAL would have been the team of the decade.

*(Many fans argue that .04 cost the Spurs a title in '04, but I believe the Pistons would have beaten the Spurs that season, so in retrospect, that loss to LAL didn't hurt nearly as much as the loss to the Mavs in '06.)

Jazz x10000. Stockton and Malone were two of the dirtiest players to ever play the game.

Certainly true for '96 and '98 when the Bulls were there, but the Jazz also knocked out the Spurs in '94 and that year had set itself up very nicely for the Spurs. Had the Spurs gotten past Utah, the rest of the road would have been Denver (the #8 seed who upset #1 seed Seattle), Houston and the Knicks in the finals. Whether the Spurs could have beaten Houston in 1994 (Drexler not there yet) is certainly debatable, but I doubt the Nuggets or Knicks could have beaten them.

I'm not sure why any Spurs fan would have even close to the amount of hate for the Mavs as they did for the 90's Jazz and the 00's Lakers, unless you're too young to remember, or you're way too sensitive.

You obviously haven't spent the last 13 years living in Dallas. Any Spurs fans living in Dallas will know what I mean

So glad I made the right decision to stay here in SA for a while. ... Think I'll continue to prepare for my return to Europe instead (Please Lord, I beg you). :lol

Yes, you made the right choice! :toast

I can't put the Mavs ahead of the Rockets ... especially when you consider how obnoxious Rocket Fan becomes when their team is actually a winner. Not only are they unbearable, they come to San Antonio and buy up all the seats in the lower level.

Mav Fan can be a little annoying but they are damn near angelic compared to Rocket Fan, all things being equal.

1. 90s Jazz
2. Lakers, any era
3. Rockets, any era

IMO, it's difficult to separate the Mavs, Blazers and Suns.

I gotta say Jazz. until I moved to LA and was witness to the .4 shot in a bar in Santa Monica...my hate for LA took on a whole different level and meaning right there. The birth of hate: Game 5 (May 13, 2004)

For me, it's the Mavs (I had to live in Dallas for quite sometime). The fans are horrible, have no class, and are pretty much ignorant of what is going on with their team until April. Plus Marc Cuban is an asshat.

Worst memory in Spurs history for me. I've never gone from such a high to such a low in so short a time. I get sick every time I think of it.

This. I'll never forget all those fucking Rocket fans cheering inside the Dome at the Robinson/Olajuwon MVP game. Fuckers.

I guess the jazz I still have nightmares about byron russell he always sunk the final nail. And malones karate chop ofcourse. That being said it would be hard for me to hate anyone more than ratface jt that nut-punching pussy. However most of the times they were our bitch.

I hated Hornacek, I remember him killing us, and never missing a shot.

Pop cost the Spurs in '06 by starting Michael Finley at power forward.

I do realize that the Jazz of the 90's were rivals of the Spurs and were borderline dirty players, but I really respected their game and orgization. They were not an exceptionally athletic bunch nor were they young but they overachieved with their scrappiness and cerebral play and their execution was impeccable. They were very well coached and an excellent franchise for our Spurs to model themselves after. My hat is off to them. I'm giving them credit where credit is due. As for the Dallas Mavericks ....ha ha you fuckers enjoy fishing season!

No, just the past 9. Hasn't been a problem.

Obviously, I dislike the 1990s Jazz more than the Mavericks....
