If you weren't a Spurs fan...

[DarrinS]

I like the WNBA, so I'll say the Phoenix Suns.

[Texas_Ranger]

Warriors.

[florige]

I like Kobe, so probably the Lakers. Uggh I can't believe I just said that, I think I'm gonna be sick....

[ehz33satx]

NO ONE ELSE is even close to being worthy.

Depends on the year and the team. In the past I've rooted for the Suns, as entertaining and because I loved Steve Nash and thought he was a pretty classy guy. I've rooted for the Mavs (Dirk isn't that bad) and the hometown team Houston (but they pretty much suck since I've been here). After this year, I have a lot more respect for Denver (but not their coach) and for Utah. Young team would be the Hornets. . . out in the east would be the Cavs maybe, and used to be Detriot.

if this if that... there are no if's.

it's SPURS or nothing at all!

[bdictjames]

I'd pull for the Bobcats and Blazers. They have talent.

[Obstructed_View]

I'd have been a Spurs fan no matter what. They are the Bjorn Borg of basketball.

[dav4463]

Anybody but the Mavericks.

Who would you root for?

I thought of this after watching this Cleveland season ticket holder all decked out in Spurs gear, saying he supported both, but like the Spurs more.

So, if you didn't love the Spurs, which teams jersey would you don and watch?

(I'll be honest, I'd go for the Cavs. They are the ultimate underdog.)

If my blood didn't run silver and black during basketball games, I would probably root for the Pistons, who came through big for me in 2004. Even if i wasn't as Spurs fan I would still be an anyone but the Lakers fan. 2nd choice would be the Bulls, my mother is from Chicago and we always rooted for MJ in the finals when I was a kid.

It's hard for me to answer though, as I don't think I'm capable of choosing aa western conference team. I try to place myself in the mentality of a Suns fan, and a part of my brain that realizes that would require rooting against the Spurs in round 1-3 of the postseason pulls the emergency handle and I reflexively scream "Go Spurs Go" at my computer screen.

[manubili]

Bobcats, because of MJ and Hermann

I think we all need to stop and yell Go Spurs Go at our screens now.

[samikeyp]

I would be counting the days until NFL training camp.

[MisterWhodat]

If I wasn't already a Spurs fan, I guess I would go with the hometown guys and be a Hornets fan

[MI21]

I'd follow the Australian Andrew Bogut, so unfortunately, Milwaukee.

[slacker77]

phx,but only because of nash.he's got alot of heart,to with amares whiny ass..

[Soul_Patch]

Chicago Bulls.


I think they are going to be the team to beat for a while in the east.

[Strike]

Seriously though, I have no ing idea who I would root for. I don't even know if I would follow the NBA if not for the Spurs.

Don't forget "Utah graduate."

I'd have to say I would probably be a Bulls fan. SA has no football, and my family is originally from Chicago, so that would have been the team. I root for the Bears for the same reason.

[ATRAIN]

Rockets to keep it in state, but if not them, I can't believe Im saying this, the Utah Jazz. They building something there.

hahah you have a Man crush on Deron don't you???

[ATRAIN]

Rockets more than likely.

Interesting. I was just an NBA fan before I rooted for the Spurs. I watched the playoffs every year and just rooted for whoever as the games went along. Like I said before, I'd have definitely been a Tim Duncan fan no matter what.

[alamo50]

Utah

I was a Blazers fan until about 1992. I became a Spurs fan during the 1989-1990 season, David's rookie year. a friend of mine told me about this 7 foot dude that was playing for the Spurs and that he came from the Naval Academy. My old man is a retired Navy man so I was interested. Over the next few years, my interest in the Spurs grew and my interest in the Blazers diminished.

Over the years I've become very annoyed with most of the rest of the league. All the "me first" at udes, huge salaries, hype, and all the other .

Most people (including myself) always say they want classy players, team players, all that . Most people are ing hypocrites. I love the way the Spurs (as a franchise and team) work and conduct themselves. It's so different from most of the rest of the league.

Also, I just love the fact that such an unpopular (not hated, just not popular) team is one of the best in the league every ing year for the last decade. It makes me laugh that the Spurs contend for the le every year while the Lakers falter and the Knicks suck a !
