Favorite Teams

Postby thaKEAF on Mon Oct 20, 2003 5:29 am

I'm sure this topic has been made quite a few times in the past but too bad because I wanna know your favorite NBA teams! :wink:

Mines are the 76ers and the Grizzlies, I think to make this more fun we'll like count up all the teams and see which teams are liked the most.

I've had many a favourite team. I first heard about basketball in grade 2 (7 years ago) and these are my fav teams sicne then (in order)
Orlando - first game I saw was them
Vancouver/Toronto - Damon was my fav player, and it's the hometown team
Houston - I liked them for a little while and always put myself on Houston in Live
Phoenix - Marbury, what more can you want

I used to like the Knicks with Ewing, the Bulls, the Sonics, the Rockets with Barkley and Hakeem, the Pacers, and the Jazz. All those teams are gone now so I'm not really a big fan of any team now but I'm rooting for the Lakers so Malone and Payton can get their rings and maybe get 72+ wins. It would also be neat to see Scottie lead the Bulls back into the playoffs.

The Boston Celtics since 1980, I saw Larry Bird in college, heard he had already been drafted by the Celtics, looked into the Celtics and it was love at first sight.

Somehow the Boston Red Sox came with the deal, so I love them as well.

I never been to Boston, but I love the Cetlics.

Paul Pierce is the man :P

Liking 4 and 5 teams in the NBA is a stange concept to me.

I only like 3 teams in all sports.

I'm not really a fan of any one team. I'm more of a general hoops fan, I don't care whose playing as long as I get treated to a great game. Although the only time that I really start tuning in to the NBA is during the playoffs where I rarely miss watching a game esp after the first round.

Although back when I first started closely following the NBA I was partial to the Pistons during Grant Hill's rookie year.

LOL I remember when I first got NBA Live '98, I had Grant Hill and Joe Dumars averaging 90+ points between themeselves. :P

Yes! It's my turn! All my reasons why I like the teams are pretty lame!

I like 1. Lakers...I liked them because they used to have T-lue...They have Fisher, George and Madsen (Madsen has got Spirit!)....also because we got Kobe "Ripper" Bryant.... I only say go Shaq because I have to stick up for my team! I'm NOT a glory hunter! :lol:

I also like Washington...because they used to have T-lue (And no...I don't like Orlando!) Since I only started following them two years ago! I thought Kwame was awesome...didn't like MJ though...also like Juanny Dixon!

And the third team I follow is Houston cause they used to have Olajuwan...but I liked Stevie Franchise AND Yao comes as a bonus! Chinese Pride! :D

Chicago Bulls. I jumped on the bandwagon because... hey all the kids at school were talking about Michael Jordan, I had just started following b-ball and was fresh off the boat with no interest in basketball, so what did I know? :D First Bulls game I saw was a replay of game 6, 1993 Finals, hell I didn't even know it was the finals. What do you know my first season as a Bulls fan was 93-94! I've been a fan ever since. Infact I'm so into the Bulls, I'll tell you right now, Jamal Marshall for MVP :P Just kidding.

Pete Myers 4 eva! Greatest Bulls' SG ever, took them to the promised land in 93-94! :twisted:
