    Im a die-hard Rocket fan, but if they aren't in it, then I have to go for the local teams and root for the Lakers and Clippers, but Im a realists and know their limits so I look forward for just some good basketball games. The only team that I really hate is Dallas. Its a combination of the fact that they cheated the Rockets out of the playoffs last year and the fact that they are the anti-old school NBA team. They have no true center (sorry, Dampier is non-exists and outright foolish for some of the comments he makes), their owner b*tches way too much (although I respect what he has done there), and Dirk depends on outside Js too much (although he did a better job this year until the Finals atleast). So as long as Dallas doesn't win, Im just happy to catch some good basketball games.

    This year, it was probably Clippers, Miami, and Cavs.

    Any other team other than the Spurs or Mavs.

    I was really rooting for the Clips since they have Mobley and Cassell, I also like Brand and Maggettee.

    As well as teams that have players who have given former Rockets greats their due props, ala Shaq, and don't spend their time after losses blaming everyone except themselves.

    Right now, I'm rooting for Miami. I was rooting for the Clippers, earlier.

    I was all about the Clippers once the season was over....just like others...cause of Sam and Cat.

    once they got eliminated...I am not really rooting for anyone...Ive only seen one game of this series....and even tho it goes against my "root for Texas teams over out-of-staters" philosophy...I would pick Miami if pressed for an answer....just cause of how Dallas has reacted to their problems in this series.

    I dont like whining p*****s...they are making our great state look bad by acting like that. :mad:
