The Lakers would probably be my second team. Kobe, best player in the league. I also love watching the Hornets to see CP3 and the Magic to see Howard play. I watch some Cleveland games too since Lebron is amazing too.

If I had to rank my teams it would be Raps, Lakers, Hornets (also for MoPete).

I have a thing for Portland.

Other than that, just individual players, like Wade, Bronbron and CP3.

I don't cheer for any other NBA teams. But I cheer for specific players.

I love watching young prospects getting drafted and seeing success such as:

Thaddeus Young, a smart, young, lefty, better than Iggy, eventually.

Eric Gordon, another smart player, going to be a real good shooter in this league. Dare I compare his scoring ability to Allen Iverson? He's going to average 8 FTA/game in a year or so.

And in this year's draft:

Earl Clark, he'll be a legitimate franchise-type player

And in the near future:

Austin Daye, of Gonzaga, this kid is long, athletic, and can shoot, a project though.

Hope this doesn't derail the thread! :d

My other favorite team is the New York Knicks, since I lived there a lot and spend summer, winter holidays there also.

Not sure which other teams I'm a fan of, but I can tell you that I cheer for the opposing team when any of these 3 teams play:

1) Lakers
2) Celtics
3) Cavs

Now that I live in LA, I've become something of a Lakers fan.

And I've always like the Spurs.

Which is a bit of a problem now.

Growing up, I was always a Lakers fan until the Raptors arrived.

Now, if the Raptors aren't playing I cheer for any team that plays the Boston Celtics.

While they have been struggling for the past week or two I have enjoyed watching Atlanta play the past few years, im a big fan of Horford and JJ.

Hate every other team in the East. I don't really follow any other teams but whenever they aren't playing the Raptors I tend to cheer for the Suns and Hornets.

I attempt to cheer for other teams (Spurs, Blazers) but the only team that I really have a passion for is the Raps.

Memphis and Oklahoma City.

No, really, they're fun to watch. If you haven't been paying attention to Kevin Durant since the coaching change in OKC, take a look.

I like the lakers because they have bryant who is my second favourite player and i like how they score a lot of points. I also follow the nuggets because they can flat out score and are a very entertaining team with my fave player carmelo. The rest of the league well I barley watch their games because they just seem plain.
