Are there any here? I know the Mavs are out but does anyone follow basketball? I've been a Spurs fan since I was a kid, now that Duncan and Pop are getting close to retirement the Finals are a big deal for me this year. Wish I was home for it, at this point I wouldn't hesitate to throw $1000 down to get a seat at the Finals.

The NBA is nothing more than actors dribbling balls. Flip, flop, flipiddy, flop.

it started going down hill in the 90s.

Don't get me wrong, there are still PLENTY of skillful players playing, but it just isn't what it was.

Not a big fan of basketball, and I hate the spurs. But I hate the heat and Le Queen more. So I hope the spurs win

I don't care for how the Heat built their team, but since Boston started the trend a few years back and LA tried to do the same, I guess that's how it's going to be.

Love me some BBall! College and NBA. Go Spurs. I hate the Heat. I may have acquired tickets to game 3 in SA. Waiting to finalize the deal. Eff Lebron and company.

I'm a Lakers fan since I'm from L.A originally. I try to follow the Mavs too but they make it hard to cheer for them sometimes with their screw ups.

I hate the Lakers! And I usually hate the bandwagon fans but since you're from there that's understandable. I'll join the Mavs bandwagon from time to time if the Spurs are out.

Being a L.A sports fan has had it ups and downs.

Up = Lakers, Angels and Kings

Down = Raiders and Rams (when they were both L.A teams of course)

A large percentage of Raiders fans are nothing but wannabe thugs. lol

The Angels are doing pretty terrible too, I'm pretty happy about that! Especially after they paid Pujols and Hamilton so much.

**Grandpa** · 06-06-2013, 04:57 PM

L.A is such a bad place for Hamilton to be with all the temptations too. I'll be surprised if he ever does anything there.

I could care less about how they built the team it is more how LeBron announced it and the side show concert of an event that followed. The most egocentric thing I have ever seen

**DirtyD** · 06-06-2013, 05:36 PM

The Spurs will show them how a legacy is truly formed.

**BLK2012GT** · 06-06-2013, 05:36 PM

Got the heat in 5 or maybe the sweep.

**Grandpa** · 06-06-2013, 05:52 PM

The Heat are the Yankees of the NBA. They should win with the money spent on salaries in their roster, but don't always win because there is too many cheifs and not enough indians, so to speak. lol.

The difference is the heat has made the finals every year so far since the big three been together. The yankees don't make it every year. I'm not a heat fan but I do give them their props cause they have walked the walked.
