    Mo Williams got off the bench and screamed at a ref after the Lillard call too...

    Any ways I voted Miami because why not?

    I feel kinship with them, every other NBA fan hates on the Rockets nowadays so now I know what it is like to be a Heat fan (without the rings of course) with fans hating your team because a superstar player decided to come play for your team.

    So I'm going for Miami. It also means that

    -Durant doesn't win, maybe brings him closer to forcing a trade
    -Spurs don't win...seriously, why root for them?

    and those are the two teams that I hope lose the most. Outside of the Blazers.

    I hate that "We lost to the champs!" attitude. That would piss me off more this season if the Blazers won because then I'd think we were a few calls away from being the champs ourselves.

    I usually root for the underdogs. I have a little soft spot for Dallas (don`t kill me), since I am German and it would be cool if Dirk gets a second one. Plus they are playing an amazing series against the best team of the league.

    The teams I won`t root for are:

    LAC
    MIA
    BKN

    Maybe there are a lot of Portland fans on ClutchFans after this series. Most likely their accounts haven't been activated.

    Don't worry. I am never wrong.

    San Antonio will beat them in 4/5 games.

    Lowry, thus TOR

    In the West, I'm curious to see how the underdogs will do--DAL or MEM.

    I hope POR gets swept. We played bad yet played them quite evenly. No defense, Harden's disappearance, Lin TOs, Beverley's illness--all made our play in this playoffs inferior to our regular season play.

    We need to bolster our bench so we are not overly vulnerable when one key piece is taken away.

    The refs. Seriously though looks like the heat breeze towards their 3rd title.
    Spurs look horrible but the pacers look worse. If the clips can get to the finals I believe that have the best chance. Lebron will destroy KD so lets hope tht show does not happen.
    I'll be rooting for nobody since our season is over. Time to wait for the NFL draft and pray the Texans don't let me down again.

    Yeah, I agree that the Clips have the best chance, but everything is pointing to a threepeat. Still I´d like to see a team like DAL or GS go up against them...

    Portland has a pretty likable team if you remove the fact that they played the Rockets.

    I'm rooting for whoever plays Portland. If the Blazers do poorly in the next round, it should push McHale one step closer to being out the door. (Nothing personal, Blazer fans.)

    Oops! Stupid smart phone

    One way to look at it is that if the blazers win it all then at least we can say we lost to the world champs

    ...I think I just made myself sick

    Blazers, if they won it all, we are just beaten by the champ.

    Like I said, I´m a German, so I have to have a soft spot for Dirk.
