Exclamation Who are you rooting for in the NBA Finals?

After 21 years the LA - Boston rivalry has been renewed. In the 80's I was a Magic Johnson fan, so I rooted for the Lakers as long as they were'nt playing my Rockets. Now I'm rooting for the Celtics because their center, Kendrick Perkins, is a local boy Clifton J. Ozen Magnet Highschool Website and I'd love to see the big 3 in Boston all get their 1st rings, especially Paul Pierce.

As I type this, Boston is up 1-0 but I think the series will go at least 6 games. So, Who are you pulling for?

Barry

Lakers. As a long time 76er fan, it's hard to root for the Celtics.

As an Indiana girl, I've got to go with the Celtics. Plus, come on due those Hollywood stars need anything else to make them feel better than the rest of us.

I'll root for the Lakers, but I don't like any of the players. I was a die hard Lakers fan in elementary school, but that's when Magic, James Worthy, Byron Scott, A.C. Green and Kareem were playing. Those were the good 'ol days!!!

I don't follow basketball, but I'll go for the home team.

Is it me, or are some sports seasons becoming longer than they used to be?

So true!! It seems like basketball and hockey go on forever! I'm a fan of both but enough is enough. Why do we need so many best of 5/7 series and only one Superbowl?

Our household are Celtic fans. That's partly because none of our teams are in the playoffs.
