The team I dislike the most are the Spurs. To me its like a chore to watch a Spurs game, sure Tony and Manu are somewhat exciting, but its alltogether puts me to sleep. Also I hate it when Spurs fans say, " If you don't like to watch the Spurs play you don't know the fundamentals of basketball". Thats stupid because everyone already knows the fundamentals of basketball, which is why we want to see more in the NBA.
The team I like the most is the Clippers, they may be a losing franchise, but I have high hopes for them. I've loved them since for about 6 years now, since the Darius Miles and Lamar Odom days. Also I love some of the Clippers fans out there, they stuck with their team through all this losing, and its amazing to see a true fan like that.

Wow, after that I guess no self-respecting Spurs fan is going to feel welcome sharing their thoughts here.
I like the Phoenix Suns the most and dislike the Lakers (mostly because of the coach).

Apparently I'm not alone what I say the Spurs are my least favorite team. It's not just the boredom, or the way they played my favorite team (the Suns). It's this think they do after Duncan, Ginobili, and Parker get fouls a few times each game. Every game I watch, there are a few fouls on a big name guy, and you get excited (because who doesn't want to see the Spurs in a tight spot?), and the announcers call it, then confirm the refs are calling on that player. Then, they switch the screen to focus on the guy who just got called for the foul, and you'll notice they point at someone on the team like Brent Barry, who doesn't play enough to ever get in real foul trouble, and the announcers will say they were wrong, and that they are calling the foul on the other player (Barry in many cases). You hear people complain about Game 3 against the Suns, but you get the feeling after seeing that happen game after game that it's every ref in the league helping out the Spurs. It's unbelievable, but it happens.

Spurs... although i disagree with you on that watching them is tedious.... i truly do find them qutie exciting and more exciting to watch than the clippers, bc in the end winning is what matters and they somehow always find a way to get it done.....
"Still Always Correct"... im not a spurs fan at all, but i know they dont get special treatment... youre just making asumptions bc of one game against your team who wouldve lost the series anyways.... but i have one question how would you know about this(fouls being called on the wrong player) if you say watching them is boring and crap.... so youll sit through a whole entire game even if your favorite team isnt playing them, and you dont want too???? hmmm
ALSO Potter Guru... sorry but cleveland doesnt rock, it sucks.... ima PIttsburgh Fan

I like the Mavericks. They will get their ring this year b/c Avery Johnson is a great coach and they have the talent to overcome past failures in the playoffs, just as Jordan with the Bulls had to do when they finally got past the Pistons.
The team I dislike is the L.A. Lakers. Mainly out of respect for the great teams they had with Magic when they beat out every team in the west during the 80's.

I like the Mavs the best. They have Dirk who can shoot from anywhere on the court, and drive to the whole occasionally. He also makes a very high percentage of his free throws. They have Josh Howard, who is very underrated, who can slash to the whole and throw down a thunderous dunk and shoot very well,also. They also Have Jason Terry who is a wonderful 3 point shooter. Devin Harris is never afraid to drive to the whole and give up his body to score. They also have Jerry Stackhouse, who should've been Sixth Man of the Year, who is another awesome 3 point shooter, and he is a great backup for Devin Harris. I even think he should be starting instead of Harris. Just to name a few.
I think the team I dislike the most is the Atlanta Hawks. They can never win. They can't do anything good with their picks in the draft. They have some talent, but I don't think they will be any good until they get better management.

I dislike the Spurs too. The NBA's primary job is to sell tickets and make fans happy. Without fans, who cares about who gets a shiny golden cup at the end of the season? The NBA wouldn't exist if no one watches it. The Spurs are boring to watch, so they're basically not doing their job. Players are basically performers, working to please the crowd. You're supposed to be in a good mood while watching games(or at least enjoy it, negatively or positively).
The teams I like the most are the Warriors and Suns. They all have fast-tempo offenses, and they're both exciting to watch.

i've been a warriors fan for years, even through the dark years and there were many. they are my favorite team.
i've hated the lakers for years, probably because magic and company were beating the warriors consistently when i was growing up.
as far as entertainment though, i love watching the suns when they are on. their offense is a thing of beauty. on the flip side, while i like the spurs as a team and appreciate their excellent team basketball, they arent fun to watch.

Dislike the Pistons their fans are thugs and criminals.
Used to be a total Pacer fan, since Reggie retired they've become hard to love. I did enjoys watching the Suns and the Warriors last season.
