Hey guys,

I think this could be an interesting topic; who do you think is the most un-likable team in the NBA and why did you choose this team?

I will reveal mine in this thread eventually; but it would be cool to read everybody's responses in regards to this question.

Thanks!

For example, what is it about this specific team that makes you hate them or not want them to succeed?

People really hate Kobe because they think he ran Shaq out of town or they think he raped a girl so I'll pick the Lakers.

Celtics.

KG and Pierce are immature and dumb retards. It is beyond me how anyone older than 16 can root for such idiots.

To me, it's Dallas and here's why:

- I love Mark Cuban, Avery, and Terry; all strike me as really good guys.

The others; not so much.

- Stackhouse, Kidd, Dampier, Dirk, and Howard don't exactly strike me as a likable group.

I really don't like them.

Not a fan of the Nuggets, either.

Pistons - whiny and perennially overrated.

Celtics - arrogant fans stuck in 1986, KG is better suited for the WNBA.

Nuggets - a bunch of me-first thugs.

Lakers - tradition, arrogance, K.O.B.E.

I hate any team that has not hade a winning record in at least 5 years. At least try and compete.

Spurs for sure. Can't stand ANY of their players. Bowen with his dirty play, Parker with his flair, Manu with his air of superiority. AND they have the audacity to keep winning!

But yeah, for me, it's pretty much Denver and Dallas are the two teams I like the least.

I find that many of the players on both teams are very unlikable to me.

This coming from the person who called them "dumb retards". nice.

I'd say the Hawks right now, for obvious reasons being a celtics fan.

Normally? Probably the Spurs. They are so good its frustrating to play against them. More or less a complement I guess.

Also, I lost a TON of respect for Pat Riley after what he did this season; I felt he threw Shaq under the bus a few times before the trade, (Which is why I have always somewhat understood why Shaq bad-mouthed him recently), then he left the team to go "scouting" during the season, and towards the end of the season, you had an NBDL starting lineup.

It was pathetic; I mean, honestly, the only starters I can even remember towards the end of the season were Quinn and Ricky Davis.

Who were the rest? Barron? Johnson?

What a pathetic display by Riley this season.

To me its a franchise whose owners don't care about the game. So Memphis and the Clippers for me, or a franchise whose players are quitters (Hello Denver). Even if your a laker hater, you have to admit Buss does care about winning.

A lot of fans on realGM seem to hate the Jazz. On another board I just saw a moderator of one team give advice to a moderator of another team on how to beat the Jazz.
