Question Who are you rooting for?

The Mavs are out but the 2nd round of the playoffs is at a very critical & exciting juncture. Who are you rooting for at this point and why?

Once the Suns and Warriors are out, I don't really care.

I'll just be rooting against the Spurs at that point....of course they spurs just probably lost their chance to win this series last night.

Anyway...I'm not rooting FOR anyone. I'm rooting against the gimmick.

Originally the Bulls, but they're done in my book (predictions like this by me usually mean they'll win the series), so go Utah go.

To tell you the truth, I'm bouncing around all over the place.

Before the second round, I figured that I might as well root for the Warriors.

But once they started playing, and I remembered what classless jackasses they were, I just couldn't do it.

In the Spurs/Suns series, I'm having even more trouble.

The Spurs are a Texas team, I like Popovich, Duncan is a world-class player, they play great basketball....BUT they do employ Bruce Bowen...and my god their fans are annoying.

The Suns...I just can't stand Mike Dan Tony OR Basketball Jesus, but then I watch Steve Nash play - and when he's not playing the Mavs...it can be hard to root against him sometimes.

Whoever loses, I won't be losing sleep over it - but I've been flip floppin in that series on a daily basis.

Overall, I guess I'm rooting for Utah to come out of the West. If the Spurs or Suns make it to the finals, I will most likely be rooting for the Eastern Conference team.

pft, I hope whichever arena they're going to play the finals in spontaneously implodes before the first game. I don't give a flying you-know-what.

I'm not sure I can spread enough reputation around to get enough to give you how much you deserve! Heeelarious.
