Kind of sad.

[E20]

I'm more interested in watching the GS vs DAL game tommorow then I am the Spurs beating the Nuggets tonight, but I'm still pretty pumped in watching the Spurs take them out, but not as PUMPED as watching DAL vs GS.

Because not only could they take out the Mavs and shut up the malacious Mavtrolls (Dirk Nowitzki), but also because it would be making NBA history. That's why we're all more excited about it.

[mardigan]

Its not sad, we know our Spurs are going to represent, we dont know what the Mavs are going to do

[DubMcDub]

No what's kind of sad is that a bunch of ST posters watched the game yesterday wearing Baron Davis beards/Warrior jerseys.

Whats sad about that? Most Spur fans here like any team S-Jax is on, and why not kill some time rooting for a team thats playing your mortal enemy

Hate to admit it, but that is funny.

Baron is a baller though, good guy too. Not like us buying a lot of Artest jerseys.

Leave him alone. At least he stays positive about his team. More than I can say for some people.

Anyone want to buy a retro Artest Pacers jersey?

You don't think it's a bit odd that fans of a championship team like the Spurs are having to resort to rooting for another team to knock of the Mavs because they are clearly a bit unsure about their own chances against the Mavs?

Personally, if my team had won 3 recent les and was playin some good ball, I'd be concerned exclusively about what my team was doing and not be worried about who we might have to play.

those baron beards are hilarious, even mav fans here at work appreciate them.

I cant wait for your ass to shut up when the Mavs win the championship. If you are seriously getting annoyed with me, dont read the threads about the mavs in the nba section of this site.

Im not as concerned with what my team is doing right now because we are about to advance, I like good basketball period. This series is one of the best I have watched in a long time, but Im not about to root for the Mavs, so I root for the underdog, one that has 2 of my favorite players on it. Its not as much about people really hating the Mavs, people just really like watching the Warriors play. And as far as all of the mav fans who keep saying that we root because we are scared, thats hogwash. Maybe the Spurs cant beat the mavs, but they dont scare me, its just basketball and I always think my team has a good chance. Especially having watched the Mavs play this series.

But again, I'm not really addressing you. There's a difference between kind of passively rooting for the Warriors cause theyre underdogs/cause theyre playing the Mavs/cause you like some of the characters on their team and actively rooting for them by going to big watch parties wearing Warriors jerseys and .

, I like AI, but I wasnt out watching Game 2 of the Spurs-Nuggets series at some bar wearing Nuggets just cause they were up 1.

only if it's his Pacers 91 jersey.

[DubMcDub]

I think they're funny and all but still a bit odd that Spurs fans are wearing them en masse.

True that. I'm a Raptors fan (although I've been a Spurs fan for about a decade) and I can't help but root for the underdog. I generally have no beef with the Mavs, I rooted for them in last year's WCF.

But the Warriors are so fun to watch, so basically anyone outside of Dallas should be enjoying them play. I think that the gamr 5 screwup might give the Mavs enough of an opening to take this series, though.

Well maybe you werent, but that doesnt mean there werent a bunch of Mav or Suns fans running around rooting for the Nuggets as well.

No I think Mavs fans just have a problem with everything right now . I mean, it's exciting. If it were the other way around, I'm sure Dallas fans would be very interested in watching the Spurs lose in the first round. It's awesome because it could be history.

I do too. I really think the Mavs might have gotten the mental edge back, and I really think that the Warriors might be doomed now.

We've gotten together to watch games for years, regardless of who is playing....especially during the playoffs. We've watched some football together, too. A lot of us are friends and actually enjoy each other's company. Now, why, exactly, is this sad?

And TPark probably has the largest collection of jerseys, ever. It wouldn't be unrealistic to assume he might have had that one long before this series ever started.
