If you weren't a Spurs fan...

[MadDog73]

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 !

Me too.

I love how I can root for an underdog that actually wins all the ing time.

Best of both worlds.

Probably the Blazers.

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.

Yeah, that's why I said the Spurs were like Bjorn Borg. I remember what a ing embarssment John McEnroe was, and I was ashamed that he was an American going to foreign countries and acting the way he did. My dad told me that Borg threw a tantrum during a match when he was a kid and his father took his tennis racket away and told him that if he couldn't conduct himself like a champion that he wouldn't be allowed to play. I don't know if that's true, but it always stuck with me. My dad taught me how to put an elbow into a guy's ribs to get an advantage going for rebounds but also taught me to shake my opponent's hand after a game.

Its like asking a man if you were a women, what guy would you like?

The question is incomprehensible.

Match up the quote to the poster:

I used to be a Jazz fan.

I like all Dallas teams.

But we all know you are a Spurs fan.

[703 Spurz]

Golden State probably. I kinda liked the Charlotte Hornets for a period of time as well, but they weren't my fave team

[peskypesky]

Knicks. (I live in NYC)

I also like the Warriors.

[Spurminator]

I started watching basketball because of the Spurs. If I had picked another team, it probably would have been geographical. So, Rockets or Mavs depending on where I was living.

[childsafetylock]

i'm a pistons fan all the way. but seeing as the spurs are my favorite team in the west, i'd cheer for them all the way (like i am right now, since they're in the championships).

but i'd also cheer on the rockets and golden state warriors (they're my favorite underdog team... they managed to knock out a number 1 seed. even though they didn't get past utah, it's all good. i'd take golden state over cleveland any day)

[Reggie Miller]

The Pacers and Spurs have always been my favorite teams. If both San Antone and Indy had the organizational problems that the Pacers are going through now, I would probably quit watching the NBA entirely.

If I hadn't grown up with the Pacers and Spurs, I would have been a Spurs fan anyway, because David Robinson was such a fine human being and player. Fortunately for the Spurs, Timmy seems to be cut from the same cloth. The Spurs have been very lucky to have Gervin -> Robinson -> Duncan in succession: great players and men. The Pacers used to be able to say that, until Reggie retired. This view is so prevalent in Indiana now that the Pacers HAD to blow up the team.

Side Note: I can never hate any team as much as Pacers fans used to hate the ABA Kentucky Colonels and Dr. J's Nets. That was some white-hot intensity.

[tim_duncan_fan]

Probably the heat or the lakers. My favorite non-spurs are kobe and D-Wade. They are everything LeBrick wishes he was.

[Magic_Johnson]

Probably the bulls.
I started to watch the nba because of MJ
