As long as...
The Lakers or Spurs dont win a championship i’ll be mildly happy.
"Troops in desperate straights know no fear. Where there is no escape, they stand firm; When they have entered deep, they persist; When they see no hope, they fight." Sun Tzu The Art of War
Doin my usual...
Relaxing, mildly rooting for whoever plays the Spurs or the Lakers (that being my lot in the NBA as a lifelong Suns fan.) and rooting for Lebron and the underdogs in the East.
Celtics?
Mainly because I hate the Lakers and I always rooted for the Celtics in the 80s. No, that’s a lie. Mainly because it is the western-most county of Ireland.
Mmmmm ... Guinness
Contrarian
Well, I always prefer to be beaten by the champions than by just another also ran, so I DO hope the Spurs go all the way. OK, only if the Hornets, Magic, or Celtics can’t. But assuming all of those things to be true—and at the risk of losing my BSotS posting privileges: Go Spurs!
All that said, I have a tradition of always starting my "offseason" the day my team does, so I won’t be watching anymore games this season. Thankfully, this means I won’t have to watch Kobe receive his MVP award, or the Lakers’ return to the Finals (yep, I’m calling it, and yeah, not exactly going out on a limb I know…).
well I guess I'm forced to wait until....

I have been watching....
i am more of a Rockies fan, but i do like the D-backs too….baseball is ranked the same as hockey in my book however. At least I saw a team that I rooted for win a championship, the KU Jayhawks.

As I do every year at this time
I will be rooting for my Cubbies until they blow it and I begin rooting for the Suns again until the cycle repeats itself. Such is the life of a diehard Cubs and Suns fan…
You win
the most miserable fan award!

Need another option -- keep watching but rooting for no one.
Sadly, as a Suns fan I am used to the post-season moving on without my team, but I do enjoy good play-off basketball, and except for last year, I always keep watching after the purple gang goes home. The Lakers-Nugs finish the other night was outstanding, as was the last Hawks/Celtics.
As I watch, I’ll probably end up rooting for somebody, but yeah, Lakers or Spurs ain’t options. The Spurs beat us fair and square, but I’m not rooting for Hack-a-Pop and his merry band of floppers, best team out there or no.
