    I think I can safely assume that most of us here live and die for the Rockets -- but howabout your second favorite teams?

    I've always had a strange affinity for the Vancouver Grizzlies.

    Definitely Minnesota because of Kevin Garnett.
    He's not my favorite player, but I can tell he has a passion for basketball.

    If anyone saw the Olympic preliminary against Austrailia, they kept playing the camera shot when he was guarding his opponent with his eyes bugging out and hustling to stay in front of him.

    I like the guys who play hard and have a serious work ethic.

    ------------------
    The best is yet to come.
    Go Rockets!

    Magic, although i dont like them anymore...i liked their team right fter shaq left.

    someone at center..no idea
    Grant(all star caliber player)
    Scott(a 17 ppg scorer at the time)
    anderson(20 ppg scorer at the time
    Hardaway(top 10 player at the time

    if i was gm at that time i would have traded scott 4 a good young center

    but now my 2nd fav team is the twolves probably, it would have been sonics but getting ewing was a bad move. he sucks

    twolves

    Radsomething
    Smith(hope they get him back)
    Garnett
    It would have been sealy but he passed away.
    Brandon with billups off the bench(who i see them trading for a real two guard

    The Clippers, yes the clippers. I like the players they have on the team.

    I have no idea why, but I seem to have gained an affinity for the Grizz, too. Outside of them, I'm also starting to like the Mavs.

    Geez, living here in the DFW area is starting to get to me, I guess. God forbid I ever start liking the Cowboys. [​IMG]

    Living in the Seattle area, it is hard not to like the Sonics. I also like the Heat; Mourning and Grant are both good guys. I liked the Knicks until they traded Ewing. Now I hope the Knicks fall flat on their faces.

    1999-2000 Rockets Game Formulas:
    End of 1st quarter: "They're playing so well!"
    2nd: "What a great game!"
    3rd: "Theres no way they can lose now!"
    4th: "What the ******* **** happened?!!"

    I may move to Vancouver, and since I can't hold Karl Malone against them, I'll adopt the typical stance of being the local fan.

    I pulled for the Knicks a few years ago, but just because I wasn't emotionally ready to see David Robinson get a ring.

    I allowed myself to be a Blazers fan this past year, just because I despise Phil Jackson, and I actually admitted to myself that they were a good team. Plus, their uniforms rule the Rockets.

    Heh.. just kidding. Jazz suck.

    Aside from the Rockets, I like the Kings, T-Wolves and of course, the two Canadian teams, who I feel obligated to cheer for.

    Milwaukee Bucks

    Sam Cassell
    Glenn "Big Dog" Robinson
    Ray Allen

    George Karl, one of the better coaches in the NBA.

    I'm adding the fireball cuz there aren't enough on this forum.

    Basketball-Twolves
    Football-Anyone playing and preferably beating the cowboys although I'm divided because I have Emmitt in my fantasy league so I have to root for him,j/k probably the Jets
    Baseball-For some reason there's a soft spot in my heart for the Expos,they never have a crowd and IMO Felipe Alou is one of the best managers in the game.If Dierker gats canned I hope they look seriously at him.

    I'm too consumed by my Rocket Fanatudinessoscity to have a second favorite team.

    I do like watching other teams on TV, though. I just love basketball. But, as far as "favorite" there's only one in the NBA for me.

    I do have plenty of other second-tier "favorite" players.

    I like the Knicks, Heat, and Raptors.

    Francis out top, 9 seconds on the clock, he gives a no look pass to Cuttino Mobley, 4 seconds left, Mobley passes to an open Langhi in the corner with 1 second left! Langhi at the buzzer.......YES!!! How Sweet It Is!!

    My 2nd favorite team is the Spurs, because of Duncan. Other than that, I also like the Bucks right now.
