    SA. Love Coach Pop, and although most think their teams are "boring" they actually play team basketball and I enjoy watching perfectly executed plays.

    I'd like the 38 of you who voted for OKC to realize that you're rooting for Derek Fisher.

    Derek. Fisher.

    I guess I'll pull for the Spurs. I'll pull for whatever team comes out of the west. I don't understand why anyone would be pulling for Miami.

    Absolutely the Thunder. They're going to be our biggest threat over the next few years (except maybe the Clippers, but I feel Chris Paul is going to get injured soon). Let them get their championship out of the way. Spurs just can't possibly be contenders 2-3 years from now.

    Voted Grizz, but since they're out now, rooting for the Spurs.

    I want the model team with the best coach and the longest tenured players to win.

    I came into the season believing the Heat would win it all...

    Sticking by it... and it makes me feel better believing in my prediction.

    This is Lebron's time.

    I'm rooting for the Clippers to win the championship and Donald Sterling not being allowed to be there. It would be an instant 30 for 30 if it happens.

    Because we don't want anybody from the West winning it and the Heat are the only team in the east that would beat OKC, LAC or the Spurs. Plus Lebron played in Cleveland for 7 years, the basketball gods are throwing him a bone for having to deal with the ineptness that comes with playing in Cleveland.

    LeBron for the 3 peat for sure. Hate the Spurs, still salty and don't like Blazers now, don't like OKC. If Lebron doesn't win, then I'll pull for Clippers because of what they are going through.

    From the West, I'll take Spurs. From the East, I'll take anybody EXCEPT the Heat.

    The teams i've followed most this year have all been eliminated, GS, Houston & Dallas, guess I'll root for either OKC, SA or Portland to face Miami.

    Its hard NOT to want to see the 2nd best Player face THE BEST. Durant Westbrook Ibaka vs Lebron Wade and Bosh part II would be epic. Then again seeing Duncan and Pop go for their 5th Ring in a repeat of last years FINALS would also be Great. Rooting for Portland just because I love watching Aldridge and Lillard looking unstoppable raining in those long jumpers, as if they were 2011 DirK. Though I think CP3 is easily the best pg when healthy, I also find him hard to watch... also dont think they have much of a chance against OKC.

    The east I didnt follow at all except for Miami and Indy, I had hopes for Indy, but not any at the moment. Besides it'll be a much funner Finals with Lebron in it (for ppl to hate and love)!

    Where the **** is the "No one" option. I don't have a damn secondary team, at this point of the year I'm just pure salt.
