I'll watch the Clippers if they're on because I like Blake Griffin and I like cheering for a team that's never won anything. Yeah I know, I should probably cheer for the Toronto Raptors if that's the case, seeing as I live in Toronto, but truthfully I want them to leave the city so I don't support them.

Why do you want them to leave the city? And yeah the Clippers are alright, I like them. They're pretty good now with Blake and CP3.

Because all I ever listen to is people from Toronto bitch and moan about how crappy the Raptors are and I'd love to see the sadness on their face if the team moved away. The expression "you don't know what you've got until its gone" comes to mind. Toronto is a hockey town, it always will be, and basketball will forever take a back seat.

When I used to watch basketball when I was younger I was an Atlanta Hawks fan. Dominique Wilkins and Spud Webb. Although I haven't followed or cared about basketball in over 20 years.

I fucking loved Spud Webb in the slam dunk competition! You're right though, that's when basketball was cool and it hasn't been that way in a long time. Case in point, look at the starting lineup's for the 1992 All Star Game....

East

Isiah Thomas
Michael Jordan
Larry Bird
Charles Barkley
Patrick Ewing

and West...

Magic Johnson
Clyde Drexler
Chris Mullin
Karl Malone
David Robinson

It says a lot when the worst player out of those 10 was arguably Chris Mullin.

I think that was the last all star game I watched. :

The last slam dunk contest I watched was when Isaiah Rider put the ball between his legs on a dunk.

Derrick Williams tried to do that in the Slam Dunk competition but it failed :

I'm pretty sure the last slam dunk competition I watched was when Dee Brown did the dunk with his eyes closed. Dee Brown!

Vanilla Ice rocked!

I remember seeing the Dee Brown highlights on ESPN.

Re: What basketball team do you support?

I used to be a fan of the Phoenix Suns, just becaue I thought Steve Nash was super talented and Amare Staudemire also played for them at the time, but I have to say that I now prefer the OKC Thunder and KD, playing like a boss.

Portland Trailblazers or Atlanta Hawks... I've been to a hawks/knicks game in Atlanta. I was like 6, but it was awesome. And I just always liked the Trailblazers, I dunno why.

Seattle Seahawks (Payton and Kemp)
Phoenix Suns ( Charles Barkley )
