    But I am going to say I have become a fan of Chicago. My hatred of them from the Jordan era must be over. Not that I think Jordan was crap or anything. Just had to hate the best basketball team ever assembled.

    Anyways, Chicago looks stacked on the defensive end. And offensively, they looked flawless last night. Great execution and great that they once again demolished the front runner team Stern has blessed.

    I'm hoping for Dallas and Chicago in the finals. It should be a great series. Doubt Dallas will win out against Chicago. Glad they finally got their shit together.

    I'm a fan of Chicago and want them to win for 2 reasons. D-Rose/Noah. Rose is so fast and watching him play on the offensive end is very fun. Noah is a high energy player who makes for some fun watching plays and never gives up. Plus his Free Throw shooting looks hysterical. Also How can't you love the two interveiws last year were he dogged on KG calling him a classless punk and then ripped into Cleveland "I'v never heard someone say lets vacation in Cleveland".
    Those two guys are fun to watch and they are highlighted by the plays made by everyone else on the team. Chicago is really playing team ball with a ridiculous PG to make the decisions.

    Never thought I'd cheer on Chicago myself. But I did today. haha... I hated the BULLS since 1991. End of an era for my Lakeshow. Tortured every team and denied many HOF's rings due to their 90s dominance. I know you have no love for LA, but at least we have something in common. I'll be cheering on Chicago to beat the HEAT!

    Yeah I don't have love for L.A., but mainly because of the reason you probably dislike Boston and Chicago. It's hard when you built a championship team only to fail to certain teams. But at least we have Chicago now! :D

    I felt the same way yesterday. My main reason of rooting for Chicago is my dislike of LaBron James. It felt weird rooting for Chicago after the years of going against them and MJ. I have always hated MJ due to when they played Portland in the Finals. I still say he is the best player I have ever seen, i just can't stand him.

    Another crazy thing is that I am losing my hate for the Jazz due to Sloan being gone now. I have always hated the Jazz the most. They were so dirty back in the days of Malone and Stockton with Sloan coaching them.

    I've always liked the Bulls. Obviously I wanted to the Blazers to beat them in 92, but MJ was the best ever.
