    Orlando, I will never root for the Lakers. And the magic are a nice team. I also want one of the two dominant centers in the NBA to win the championships. Just to prove that a dominant post player is needed to win a championship even with the current rules.

    Orlando, for these reasons:
    1) Kobe (please tell us how Shaq's @ss taste)
    2) Zzz Master
    3) Gasol
    4) Lewis
    5) Raefer
    6) It would be funny to see the LeBron/Kobe muppet commercial after Orlando wins the whole thing.

    Orlando, who could root for Kobe and Phil?, besides David Stern? The guys think that the world begins and stops with them. The Lakers get help from the refs, the NBA itself, they stack the team by adding Gasol for pennies. Please!! Personally I hope Rafer slaps Kobe in back of the head. :eek:
    You have to root for Rafer and hometown boy Lewis. Howard seems like a good guy, always laughing and smiling... and Boo freaking Hoo for Lebron, what a poor sport. GO ORLANDO!!!

    Orlando. It does pain me slightly to see Skip to my Lou as the pg for a team in the NBA Finals, but I will never ever root for the Lakers as long as I have a pulse.

    there was a thread about a team that eliminates teh rockets in theplayoff consistenly don't win the big game eventually.

    I'd say I'm rooting for Magic and Rafer and I think they're going to win too.

    Orlando.

    Rafer was god awful at times for us and was easily the weakest link in our starting lineup, but the guy was still this team's leader for 4 years (for what it's worth), and i'll be damned if he didn't play his ass off for this team every night. even though this board likes to take a collective dump on the accomplishments of last year's team in an attempt to juxtapose a conjured improvement sans McGrady, 'The Streak' will always remain one of my fondest memories as a Rockets fan and Rafer's play stood out in particular. He was always the first guy to stand up for his teammates, despite being the point guard, and you have to respect a man for that.
