How do you choose who to root for in other games?

Besides the Nets every game, I like to cheer for all Western Conf. Teams if they play a East team. And if they're both Eastern conf. teams, i cheer for the one who is less of a threat to the Nets making the play offs. So right now any loss for the Knicks, Raptors, Sixers and Bulls is just as good as a W for the Nets.

Is this immoral of me?

 

I usually root for the underdog.

 

i root for ex nets players that i liked. Kidd for example and Antone wright are playing well for the mavs against the fakers.

 

Im watchin that right now, I hope they win! I forgot to say, if its West vs. west, I too root for the underdog

 

Not at all, that's pretty much exactly how I do it. Except there is one override. No matter who is playing against the mavericks I root like hell for them to lose, A) because Jkidd is dead to me, and B) because our future could sereiously benefit from a mega-collapse by those damn Mavericks.

 

Are they the Nets?

If not...
Do not root for them.

(that doesn't mean I won't enjoy the game, I just won't care who wins or loses...well, unless it's the Raptors, because Nets > Raptors)

 

How can u not root for teams that will help u out in the standings if they win?

 

Because we're only 14 games into the season, and even late in the year I just find it too hard to actively root for other teams.

 

I root for who is going to beat Sixers, Heat, Bucks, Pacers, Knicks, and Bulls.

Basically, I have the same thought to the author.

 

There's certain teams where I just like the talent on the team. I like the Hornets, Blazers, ATL got me liking them last season.

 

Game 1 loss = game 82 loss

 

Not emotionally.

 

The only teams besides the Nets that i root for are the hornets and cleveland

 

Warriors/Nets

 

I don't really care about other teams.

 

I wouldn't say that I really root for any other teams. I'll still watch other teams, but it's sort of a game by game basis on who I'd rather see win.

 

I don't root for anyone. Wanting the Nets' rivals and competitors to lose isn't the same as rooting for the teams which face them to win.

 

Teams I root for other than the Nets are Lakers, Hornets, Blazers, Knicks, and Cavs.

Lakers because they've been my 2nd favorite team since Shaq left because I always liked Kobe and never liked Shaq. Like Odom a lot too. I root for the Hornets, not really sure why. I have since Paul came into the league. I root for the Blazers because I'm a big LaMarcus Aldridge and Greg Oden fan. I root for the Knicks because I'm from NY and it sucks that they haven't been relevant for years. I do like the Mavs cause of Kidd, but I still want them to lose for the Nets' benefit. And Cavs because of LeBron, he's probably my favorite player in the league right now behind VC and Kidd.
