I'm A Sabres Fanatic!! So glad to not only have the NHL back but also to have arguably the best team in hockey to root for! As for bandwagon jumpers, well you know you'll have that. I think that most of the Sabres fans on here are tried and true fans.\n\nGO Sabres!

I heard like only four people in the whole country got the Final Four exactly right. But I do not know if their are some George Mason fans that had George Mason their and the other Final Four spots wrong.

I would say zero. Most Lakers "fans" are pretty fickle. They are in Los Angeles, if that means anything to you. As a person from Cali it does to me.

I love the game because no matter where I am I can find a pick up game or someone to play some one on one with.  Also it is pretty easy for someone to learn how to play.  It is great for cardio, works on your hand eye coordination, and it's just fun.\n\nI love to watch basketball to see guys in the NBA do things I can only dream of doing.  It is a game of skill, and often has much more style then other sports.\n\nIt truley is a GREAT game!

I don't know about draft picks but I've believed that many NBA games are fixed for quite some time now and this year's playoffs are a good example.  The Lakers had no business taking the Suns to 7 just as the Cavs shouldn't have taken the Pistons to 7 (Don't get me wrong, I love the Cavs, but no talent outside of the King).  Who is on those teams?  Arguably the most engaging personality off the court (Kobe) and the most exciting player to watch on the court (LeBron).  those two guys = ratings = higher revenues for the NBA

Ahhh! Alisha! \n\nI'm a Sonics nut (have been for life) and we need more fans like you. \n\nHere's the latest scoop...and there are many reasons to be optimistic...\n\nClay Bennet (the new Sonics owner) was upset that all the Seattlites were distrustful that the Sonics would stay in Seattle.  Bennet has said he wants a team in Oklahoma City, but he's also a business man and Oklahoma is not a good market.  It's about the same size as San Antonio and even though the Spurs have won several championships over the recent years, they haven't really been a money-maker.  \n\nBennet claims that he really wants to keep the team in Seattle and has even been the instigator of all the talks with the cities.  The latest idea is to move the team to Bellevue and build a sports complex that could host a hockey team as well as a basketball team.  \n\nAnyway, there's so much to report on about this, but there are definitely reasons to be optimistic. The best thing you can do is support the team like crazy this year, because if the fans don't support them this year, they'll be less likely to come back.  \n\nGo SONICS!

I became a Spurs fan the season before David Robinson joined the team, and have been faithful ever since.\n\nThat out of the way, I think the biggest reason people don't like the Spurs, and it's not a hate dislike (IE. Duke, Yankees), but a ho-hum dislike, is because of the perceived lack of personality of the team.  It's not often that the Spurs organization offers up any kind of sound bites that are controversial or even competitively inflammatory.  None of the Spurs' current players are particularly flamboyant in any regard, especially in regard to several of the other players around the league.  In a nutshell there isn't any drama with the Spurs.\n\nAlso leading to sentiments that the Spurs are boring, is that with their style of play they don't particularly dominate any teams on the scoreboard.  Though the Spurs are a highly efficient team, and presently is the most winningest pro team (in any sport) in the United States over, I think, the last ten years, at least since 2000.\n\nSo while not being media flashy with in-your-face dunks, and high margins of victory, the Spurs still get the job done, and continue to pile up wins and championships.\n\nGO SPURS GO!!!

Losers and Laker fans jumping on the bandwagon. Don't worry though, it will all be over soon...
