    So we've made quite a few enemies this off-season and we can't really help hide our disdain for the folks who strung us along for their benefit. That being said, who are YOU rooting against the most this upcoming season?

    I for one am looking forward to the season just because I want to see how Dwight, Harden and Morey respond to what's gone on this off season. My answer is still Miami and Bosh. I seriously hope the dude implodes and gets cut in 3 years. Don't feed me this whole "Houston was tempting BS". He conspired this year just like he did 4 years ago.

    Well Dallas for sure, but that was true even before Parsons.

    Miami for sure now because of Bosh.

    I want the Rockets to smash the Pelicans, Heat , and Mavs.

    Pelicans because I'm originally from Louisiana and I read an LSU/Louisiana themed sports board, and their fans talk unbelievable amounts of **** about the Rockets.

    The Heat because of the Bosh thing.

    The Mavs to shut Parsons down.

    Mavs, Clippers, and Heat. I'm not sure why the Heat, beyond Bosh. I just want them to have a horrible year as their constructed dream comes unraveled without Lebron.

    I root against all 29 other teams, but this year I'm rooting against the Pelicans most of all.

    1. Dallas, cuz, well, f**k Dallas.
    2. Utah, (see above)
    3. LA Lakers, (see above)

    None of that is because of Parsons/Hayward/Lin

    Mavs, Heat for sure b/c or this off season.

    Usually the Lakers are at the top of my list, but now it feels like hating on a cripple.

    Well, we already know that LAL and NY are gonna suck this year, so I don't "want" them to fail, I *know* they will.

    As for SA, they are so damn good I've given up wanting them to fail, they never do.

    So that leaves us with DAL/MIA. Since MIA isn't in our conference/division, I don't care as much about them. They will be a solid playoff team but will never reach the finals with the core they have.

    Clear answer here is DAL. They were five games behind us last season but they are a threat to be much closer to us this season. Duck Fallas.

    Every team that isn't the Rockets. I do not pick and choose other teams to hate _ I hate them all.

    Meh... Depends on who the Rockets are playing at the particular moment and or who's threatening their playoff positioning at any given time.

    Other than that, I'm just rooting for good basketball.
