    Hometown teams.. I'm very very loyal to my hometown teams. Except for the Bruins because I kind of stopped following hockey during the lockout year, and its way too hard to follow both the Celtics and the NBA and the Bruins and the NHL really closely at the same time, so I chose the Celtics and the NBA. I'd still love to see the Bruins win some sh*t though.

    When the Hornets came to New Orleans, it was one of the best things that happened to me. I remember Ray Nagin was talking about seriously trying to get the Vancouver Grizzlies to come here, and I was hoping that wasn't so. When they came, I started to watch all the games and followed the NBA much more closely after that.

Next year we're going all the way for Mcnair to get his jewlery.

    I moved to Dallas in '95, when the team was a mess. I went to a few games in that time, but I wasn't a big basketball fan in general at that time... the team was pretty crappy so as a fan you pretty much would just cheer for Jason Kidd or Michael Finley, then go home. I guess you could say I hated the Lakers before I loved the Mavs, because I cheered the Spurs on when they went to their first title (I know... deep, dark secret... I liked David Robinson, he's the most class the Spurs have ever had). That is luckily also about the time that Cuban bought the team. I knew who he was before he bought the team because of knowing a little bit of computer news and because he was a major Dallas billionaire, but I couldn't understand why he wanted to buy such a crappy team. Now I understand. [​IMG]

In a given game if we execute well we could knock off the patriots or the colts.

    <span style="font-family:Tahoma">I don't think so. Might be be what I think, but I don't see the Ravens beating NE or The Colts in the playoffs. They can beat the Stoolers, and some other teams, but not NE or Colts.Also, love how we turned this into a NFL talk. [​IMG]</span>

    Hometown team, pretty much. Actually, my grandpa got me into watching the Wizards when I was around 6 years old, ever since then, I've just loved watching them play, and basketball, in general.

    - Have been living in San Francisco all 17 years of my life- Grew up watching the Lakers (they were most popular) but started following the Warriors when I was around 10 yrs old- Baron Davis is my favorite player in the NBA- We have a good core of young players in Monta Ellis, Andris Biedrins, and Brandan Wright- Chris Mullins orchestrating the biggest ripoff of last year: Jack, Al & Sarunas for Troy Murphy, Mike Dunleavy (no one really liked) and Ike (everyone liked) Too bad, PFF.- Fast break offense is only second to the Suns- Don Nelson is one of the best coaches in the league- Have two of the nicest players in the league in Adonal Foyle & Micka?l PietrusAnd most importantly:- Jessica Alba is a fan of the Warriors[​IMG]
