    Hell anyone playing against the Lakers or Jazz...

    That being said, Spurs in the West, Sixers in the East!

    Lakers fans with no LA root are like Comboys fans with no Dallas/Texas root in the 70s-90s. I know quite a few of them. And I totally despise them. These are the biggest bandwagoners in the world.

    Of course, I say this as a totally biased Rockets fan and Lakers/Cowboys hater. :p

    I respect both the Spurs and Suns, and will root for either team to beat LA.:D

    Suns have won my respect and I am going for them in the west.

    New Orleans in the east

    Sacramento played a pretty good second game versus the Jazz without Webber. Stockton showed his age in the first quarter and Sloane benched him and the Jazz made a comeback from twelve or so down. Kings offense sure is pretty most of the time, and they try hard even when they are up by a lot.

    I want the Lakers to win because I want the rockets to be the team to knock them off the top. I definitely don't want any texas team to win it because I won't hear the last of it living in Austin. The only thing worse than a Spurs fan is a Spurs fan after they win a championship without an asterisk.:mad:

    WEST: Lakers, if they lose then Spurs or Portland(pipe dream)
    EAST: Philly, if they lose then Celtics or Orlando

    I just don't like Divac flopping or Webber acting like a child so there is no way I would pick the "Queens". Dallas will never get by Lakers with Shaq dominating. Phoenix, Jazz, and the T-wolves will all be first round fodder.

    The East is a bit harder to analyze. I could see anyone of those teams makin it to finals. I think the two weakest teams have to be the Bucks(sorry Sam, GP) and the Pacers will self destruct and probably not get out the first round.
