Favorite Original Team Themes

[jojo4341]

What are some of your favorite original team theme songs? "Original" referring to a song created strictly for the team, so something like "Sirius" for the Chicago Bulls doesn't count. These songs can either be played in the arena or on local TV.

As a kid, I remember the Orlando Magic's theme, particularly around 2:50. I hated it at first because you heard it all the time on TV since they were an expansion team and wanted to stand out. But I grew to like it:

Portand fans correct me if I'm wrong, but this theme isn't used anymore despite what they show in the video. I know for sure they used it around 1990-1992 during Clyde Drexler's era when they were making the NBA Finals. They played this usually during clutch time and at least for me, it was really hyped because they had such a great team:

For LA locals, you may remember this theme on KCAL 9 during the late 80s. I always thought it had sort of a somber tone, especially after the game has ended, but I always loved it! I can only find literally 2 vids with this theme but it's overshadowed (in a good way) by Chick Hearn's advertising:

I know today there's a ton of original rap songs for several teams. I think it's a little too cliche' but that's just me.

This one stands out for me

I like the portland one you posted, they should remix it a bit and bring it back

That Orlando one is like some kind of nightmarish mix of lyrics by Shaq in Kazaam and Gloria Estefan's "the rhythm is gonna get you" if Ike Willis sang it. Nightmarish I say because that Gloria Estefan song used to frighten me when I was a toddler. I didn't know what or who the rhythm was, but I was terrified it was coming for me, and it was coming TONIGHT I was sure of it! Seems more Miami to me aside from all the cheezy abracadabra lyrics.
