    I'll always have fun rooting against the Lakers.

    But this season its the Rockets. Don't like how they construct their teams and especially don't like Harden. Dwight's an immature punk too.

    I hate the Clippers the most but I really don't want the Spurs to win a championship so I guess I'll root against them the most. Though I really don't think they have much of a chance at the championship.

    I don't really mind what happens this season. The Warriors have it on lockdown. The Cavs have an outside shot, but I'll enjoy Curry shooting 45% on 15 3PT attempts until the end of June.

    Remember that movie Face Off? Ginobili and McCallum do!

    Go Blazers!

    They certainly look like the strong favorite in the west.

    If I were playing against them Id foul the crap out of Curry on every follow through and run him into every hard pick possible on defense. Give up a bunch of points at first but I bet his % drops a ton once he expects big contact all game. Tire him out by the fourth. Sort of a new "Jordan rules" the old bad boy Pistons did.

    The Cavs also left Iggy, Barnes, Draymond wide open and they started getting nervous shooting. The Cavs just weren't deep enough last year as Delly had to play 40mpg.

    Will be an entertaining playoffs and round two we get to watch the lottery show.

    Really hope Stotts continues to let Vonleh start in the absence of Leonard. With player development being the No. 1 most important aspect of this season, let's see what Noah's got!

    I think we can stop with the "will be an easy win" now
    weren't the last 4 game supposed to be "easy wins" ?

    Well anyway, I hope we can stop the streak and start winning again
