Who are you guys rooting for once we're eliminated tomorrow?

Really the only team I care about is Boston.  The only team I root for is Boston.  There are a few teams/players that are fun to watch...  I like watching Steph Curry a lot, for example... but I don't really cheer for them or follow them.

I wouldn't say I'm "rooting" for anyone, but I know who I'd like to see win the title (if not us).  I'm weird in this way, but I don't like the idea of an underdog winning the NBA Title.  It's one thing I love about the NBA... the best of the best generally win.  The elite players win titles.  There's no frustrating surprises like the NFL.  If the NFL was like the NBA, Tom Brady would have a few more championships.  I know some people like parity, but I don't.  I like that the most dominant player in the world wins the title.  I like the historical ramifications.  I like that there was a Russell era.  I like that there was a Bird/Magic era.  I like that there was a Jordan Era.  I like that there was a Shaq/Duncan era.  And it will get me a lot of heat, but I like that we're in the LeBron era.  I think it would bum me out if Atlanta or Memphis lucked into a championship.  I think it will undermine the purity of the league in a way.  It's probably just me... but I'd probably like to see King James and Ray Allen win once we're eliminated.  Our time is done.  The Heat don't really have anything to do with us.  I'm morally obligated to root against the Thunder until Seattle officially get a team... so I'd like to see Bron continue his reign.  Here's hoping we land our own superstar (Andrew Wiggins?) some day so we can have our own dominant era.   I think I'm looking forward to a Spurs/Heat Finals.  Let the best win.

My teams are

1. Celtics
2. Raptors
3. Nuggets

 ;D

Can't wait for the Raptors to MAKE SOME NOISE in the playoffs next season, hopefully along with the Celtics so I can favorably watch both teams destroy the Miami Heat, New York Knicks, and/or Brooklyn Nets!  ;)

I'm with you on the "best of the best" NBA style of competition. I really appreciate every playoff series being best out of 7. I love the idea of different eras and such - in very few professional sports you will find this.

What's best is if 2 eras intertwine with each other (like Bird and Magic) - that makes for the best kind of basketball.

1. Celtics

2. Grizzlies
3. Trail Blazers
4. Bulls
5. Cavaliers

I'm a big point guards guy. I love Conley, Lillard, Rose, and Irving. I also am a little picky when it comes to jerseys, and I love all of these team's jerseys. These teams also have some homers of mine: Tony Allen, Marc Gasol, Wes Matthews, Nate Robinson, Jimmy Butler, Tristan Thompson.

Totally agree with this sentiment. I make a huge amount of decisions based on jerseys... those Hardwood throwbacks for Milwaukee and Atlanta almost made me convert  :-X :-X :-X :-X

Honestly, besides the Celtics, I think the NBA is boring. I have never watched a full basketball game that did not include the Celtics. Really only catch the fourth quarter of other team's games. So when the Celtics get eliminated, I will not watch another second of the NBA playoffs (jk, maybe I'll watch a little bit). I just don't find any other teams interesting to watch or worth rooting for.

I'm more of a football guy.
PHX Suns: Russell Westbrook, Chris Bosh, Tristan Thompson, Trevor Ariza, Tony Allen, Trey Lyles, Corey Brewer, Larry Nance Jr., Trey Burke, Troy Daniels, Joffrey Lauvergne, Justin Holiday, Mike Muscala, 14.6
