Who are you rooting for to win the title now that Rockets ar

are out?

I can't decide who root for between teh Spurs and Hornets. I think I'm lening towards the Hornets based on how f*cking sick Chris Paul is.

also I'm hoping the lakers and kobe destroy the jazz but then lose to either spurs/hornets.

I don't care any more, as long as it's not the Jazz or Cavaliers. I'd be happy for Kobe to be able to win another ring and say he did it without Shaq. I'd like to see Duncan defend his championship. I still don't know how the Hornets keep winning. I'd like to see it stay out West, but I wouldn't care if KG finally won. Just not the Jazz.

Hornets (cant believe I'm saying that) but mainly because CP3 is a freak

Any team but the Lakers or Jazz.

Id like to see a team that hasn't won a championship except the Jazz win, the Celtics have enough and so do the Lakers

Parker for a 3rd ring...So, the Spurs!
But I would also be glad to see the Hornets win it all.
CP3 is fantastic.

At the risk of alienating myself from the board, I'm actually rooting for the Jazz this round--I want to see an epic battle between Paul and Williams. Don't say that doesn't sound intriguing...

Of course, I want the Hornets to win in 7, then go on to the Finals and destroy the Pistons.

New Orleans...but not for Chris Paul. He is incredible...but I just love their team. They've got some great pieces that work well together...and some great role players = Peja, MoPete, and Bonzi!

I'm going for the Pistons in the East. I'm hoping for a BOS/DET east final that goes to 7 and Det wins the final game in Boston :nod:

not Lakers, Hornets, Jazz, Celtics, Cavs
Spurs, Pistons, Magic i guess

I would say Celtics if it didn't feel like they were being rigged to win it. KG's always been one of my favorite players. Since the Rockets are out, I'm pretty much apathetic. Bring on the Bobcats!

You gotta love the Hornets

CP has been unbelievable, he is not from this planet

i hate the way paul or chandler acted against the rockets, but i'am definitely rooting for them in the west.
in the east i don't care but i rather watch the celtics in the finals than a 40win team in the finals...

MaxRider · Post #13 » by **MaxRider** » Tue May 6, 2008 6:18 pm

i don't like the Hornets since 2 seasons ago
they always fouled Yao hard
Alston and few others also picked up technical fouls against them

I'm going to be rooting for the Lakers and Spurs in the west. Don't really care about the East, but I would like to see the Magic and the Cavs lose. I find their fans annoying.

LA ALL THE WAY :nod:

Iggyemu · Post #16 » by **Iggyemu** » Tue May 6, 2008 10:05 pm

To win the West LA. To win the East Boston. If both meet in the Finals I think I'll go with Boston but that could change.

+1.

Also, the more I see of him, the more I think David West is a ****.

Ohyeah, and that thing the nawlins announcers/crowd do whenever Paul scores (wheeee!!) is completely gay.

(grump grump grump)

East: Pistons. Gotta love 'sheed
West: meh. As long as it's not the Jazz. Maybe slight edge Spurs.

I don't root for anyone once the Rockets lose, but it wouldn't bother me seeing the Spurs win again. I could maybe tolerate Cleveland winning even though I'm not a fan of Lebron, but one of my best friends is from Cleveland so atleast I'd be happy for him considering that town hasn't won anything in forever...and ever...
