Now that the first round is over, who are you cheering for?

I'm cheering for the Wolves. It would be funny to see them win a championship after the Gobert trade.

The Knicks because of Hart, although I'm torn because Stephen A. annoys me.

I don't want the Celtics or Nuggets to win.

I'd be cool with one of the first timers winning also.

Now that my saltiness has diluted a bit, I'm gonna go with the Tims or the Thunder. Eff all the other teams! My first option is still like a another bubble stoppage so that no one wins.

Wolves! I have absolutely NO idea why but the Wolves used to be my favorite team I literally have never been to Minnesota nor have any family relations. I think I liked the font of "Wolves" on the jerseys, the wolf-tooth jaggedness, my best friend reminded me of KG? So I guess I do know! The Land of 1000 Lakes led me to the Lakers...funny how these things work!

Minnesota was the original home of the Lakers.

I've never been there before either. I wonder what it's like.

The Wolves are actually good enough that we should hate them.

But I wouldn't mind them winning one and then never winning again.

I would root for the Knicks but I just don't think they'll win. No need to disappoint myself.

So I'll root for the Wolves instead. It's admirable how they jumped from a laughingstock to a real powerhouse.

Been living in Indiana for almost 20 years now. Guess it’s time to root for the home team for the next round, which will probably be the only chance I get.

Minnesota - Ant is turning into something special in these playoffs...he's always been an up and coming star, but this year he has arrived.
Good Luck Minny, use your size to smash everyone including the Celtics.
I really hope the Knicks upset them though, it will be tough listening to NY media but 100 times better than listening to Bawston media tawkin' about anuddah ring, BUCK FOSTON!!!

Side note, that lineup in your signature would win vs any one else’s all time squad.. easily

Same. When I was super young and lived in Colorado I remember owning a KG jersey and being obsessed with the Timberwolves. I didn't even like basketball that much and didn't even know Denver had a team lol. I just loved their logo and colors. That changed when I moved to Southern California in 2000 and got caught up in the Lakers phenomenon, but I'll always have a soft spot for the Wolves and definitely will be rooting for them the rest of the way.

There needed to be a "don't care" option lol. I'm fine with the Nugs, I'm fine with the Timberwolves, I'm fine with the Knicks, I'm fine with the Thunder, I can't think of who else is in the running but yeah. Obviously not the Celtics, thankfully the Clips have been handled. Generally speaking I want a West team over an East team just because I think the West deserves it, but ultimately I don't really care except for not the Celtics.

Nuggets probably only team that can reliably do it. Wolves would be underdogs. But I'm rooting for Wolves. Kat lost seven family members to Covid. Would like to see something good happen for him.

I'd be ok with the Knicks but it's a very long long shot, Ant is killing it.

Our Lakers were from Minnesota so I am rooting for them.
