    Not only that, in the history of Houston vs Dallas in the playoffs, Houston has never beaten Dallas in the playoffs, ever.

    Panda, the guy is a troll. Almost everyone I know was supporting the spurs for their style of play and great cast (including me), but nobody has the right to judge. Such people should just be ignored.

    Lol. I'm not going to lie, I've forgotten about Kobe. Dude is becoming more and more irrelevant.

    Sounds like you know plenty of soft fans.

    There's nothing wrong with liking the Spurs' style and respecting their players (I do), but cheering for them while being a Rockets fans is disgusting. That same weak/soft mentality is what keeps McHale employed and kept Kubiak here 3 years too long. It's a free country though, go ahead and cheer on. Go Spurs! !

    This is wrong, there were plenty of them around rooting for the Mavs. I remember it fondly. They used the very same arguments then that they do now.

    +Classy organization.
    +Dirk is such a classy player, hard to dislike him!
    +At least their owner cares!
    +Texas team! C'mon guys!

    And I know Rocket fans immediately regret this because Mavs fans already begin to think that Dirk > Hakeem because he beat Lebron.

    '06, I didn't want Shaq getting his 4th ring... would've made a Hakeem>Shaq argument easier. O'Neal would've still had more rings, but his Finals record would've been a less than stellar 3-3. I hated DAL had to win in order for this to happen.

    No more games! I am in withdrawals, and don't suggest baseball.

    Same here. What makes it worse is that the Astros no longer play baseball.

    LOLOL cheering for the Spurs has absolutely nothing to do with keeping coaches around.

    Breh, you're totes reaching.

    Like I said before, Spurs don't depend on calls and are the most legit champions since our Rox of 1994 & 1995 and don't forget 2004 Pistons. Teams don't dont depend on and won't get any officiating advantages.

    I love the draft! Thanks for the reminder. I still reflect on that draft day deal years ago when we traded Rudy Gay for Battier. All things considered, I think it turned out just fine.

    The draft is next week. Then Orlando summer league starts a week after the draft followed by Vegas summer league. If you haven't watched them before, do so. It can be quite entertaining. Sometimes you can get a good idea on what guys will be busts. On the other hand, some rookies that dominate summer league are "4A" minor leaguers who aren't legit NBA players.

    For me, the NBA drought starts at the end of July and lasts until training camp.
