early 90's? If you were a MJ Bulls fan. Who do you like now? Still the Bulls? LeBron and the Cavs, Kobe and the Lakers, or other? Just for good conversation.

The Rockets

I'm 21.

I would probably say the Pistons. Just because of the chemistry that the new millennium Pistons have as opposed to the Lambeer, Thomas, Dumars team. Good question by the way.

How many huge jordan fans were there during his run? I saw his greatness from a distance and couldnt help but cheer for him

Cavs then, Cavs now. Hated what MJ did to the Cavs year after year, but never got so confused as to hate MJ or his skills. Can't understand the LeBron/Kobe (and 0ther)haters. And find it really funny when someone says ANY NBA player sucks. They've proven themselves worthy of having 1 of only 400 jobs, wonder where these posters find the cajones to judge anyone else.

I have to admit I was. After he left though I have found myself on the LeBron Cavs bandwagon. I used to hate Kobe but I have matured as a person and now I kind of like him because of the majority of people that do hate on him.

Sonics.

What Jordan did was open the NBA for me. i started liking other teams and eventually individuals. So there, that's the Jordan effect.

I don't really have a team. I guess if all else were equal, the Pistons or the Bulls. But I really root for players that I like, which currently include KG, Sheed, Chris Paul, and Allen Iverson. Dwyane Wade was on the list until Pat Riley messed up my fantasy team; Lebron was on the list until I realized how arrogant he was.

I also kind of like Dwight Howard, as well as athletic defensive-minded wings like Gerald Wallace, Andre Iguodala, Shawn Marion, and Josh Smith.

I have been fan of Real Madrid since then.

I was a huge Bird fan first then I became a Jordan fan during their title runs. After he left I gravitated towards the Lakers, because of Shaq's dominance and Kobe was almost Jordanesque during those runs. Of course I became a Wiz fan during MJ's 2 year stint there. After MJ retired again, I found out I really don't have a team to root for anymore. Instead I rooted for players. AI, Vince, Mcgrady, KG, Kobe, Wade and Shaq became my favorite players. It's kinda strange I don't care for any teams out there, only specific players lol.

I grew up in Chicago a Bulls fan. Moved to Portland about 6 years ago, and have been a Portland fan ever since.

I grew up in Utah in the early - mid 80s, so I wasn't a big Michael Jordan fan. Obviously I rooted for stockton and Malone. Outside of Jazz players today, I really like to watch Dirk Nowitski, Allen Iverson, Kevin Garnett and, though I am a bit ashamed of myself, Kobe Bryant.

I don't understand. If you're a fan of a team you stay a fan of that team. Why would you change?

I was a huge Grant Hill fan when he was with the Pistons.

blazers then, blazers now..i don't get all of this swaying from dominant payer to dominant player..stick with a team fellahs!

I was a Pistons fan then and now. While I appreciate the talent of many players, I don't follow them unless they play for Detroit. Dr. J and Charles Barkley are probably my two favorite non-Pistons players.

Since I grew up in Denver I was always a Nugs fan first and foremost.

The Jordan days were really annoying because of all the fanboys jumping onto the league just because of him. For them the league history started when Jordan won his first championship. I always wanted the Bulls to lose because I was sick of the overexposure.

I liked their roleplayers though because they kind of changed the way we look at roles in hoops. Especially Grant and Rodman, but also Kerr, Paxson, and Armstrong.
