    Looking forward to this upcoming season. What are your Top 5 Teams You Can't Wait the Rockets 2 Play?

    1) Lakers - Obvious, but I have lost even more respect for that org and all their arrogant fans putting down Houston.

    2) Thunder - Revenge. Bring Westbrook. I used to like Durant a lot more but he seems to be a lot more arrogant these days.

    3) Heat - I used to hate the Heat but they've kinda earned my respect. I can't stand them now instead hate them lol It would be nice to see where we stand with the "best."

    4) Warriors - Big Rivalry. Iguodala? Yeah, we had their number last year and hope to kick their @ss next year too.

    5) Mavericks - It's Dallas. Who can be a Rockets fan and still like Cuban? Enough.

    Other than your top 3

    Knicks. I would like to see the Lin haters shut up.

    Clippers. FA battle bros vs bros. cp3 vs dh12.

    Spurs. Texas hoe down. Young vs old. Black vs red. Quiet vs expressive.

    Warriors - Both up and coming teams with something to prove with new additions.
    Thunder - Playoffs. Revenge.
    Lakers - They are the Lakers. We got Dwight.
    Spurs - Still the head of the division and I consider them a top dog.
    Pacers - Went to the home game last season and it was one of the few games were we never had a lead if I remember correctly. Hibbert - Howard key match-up.

    No particular order by the way.

    LAL- obvious reasons
    OKC- Budding rivalry between the two best in the west IMI
    GS- They're a bunch of dirty fake tough guys
    LAC- HATE Blake griffin and Chris Paul. Flopping, cheating douche bags that haven't earned the respect they get!
    Dal/Utah- just hate them!

    5) Nets- I'm curious on how we'll play them.
    4) Grizzlies- I think this will be a good match.
    3) Spurs- They have one of the best systems (if not the best) in the league. Also, we should also have our "slow ball" established for the playoffs just like this team. We need to learn from them.
    2) Lakers- We have the antidote for the snake. It's time we use it.
    1) Heat- I want to see how far we've come and what else should we do.

    HM: Pacers

    Also maybe Utah... How dare you scare the **** out of me on the 5th by taking those bad contracts and making GSW a possible destination (at least in the media's eye).

    1-5. Lakers.

    Nah, in all seriousness:

    1. Lakers - They might have overtaken the Jazz as my most hated group of fans in the NBA with their antics this summer.
    2. OKC - Time to see where we stack against the best in the West, which brings me to....
    3. SA - Time to play with the big boys.
    4. Miami - Must watch television
    5. Clippers - Star power, and another team that has about 7 guys I want to punch in the face

    Honorable Mention - Brooklyn - That's a star-studded roster that's going to be entertaining to watch
