What basketball team should I root for?

umm first off knicks suck and they are the prime example of what NOT to do in a club. Root for the team that you can get used to liking. The Celtics have WAYYY more tradition, and rings. I root for the Celtics and have always rooted for them. Being born in Boston is kinda easy to root for them (s well as the Red Sox, Pats and Bruins). If you want to be made fun of by those around you, and those who don't know you, root for the knicks. If you are interested in a team that has tradition and is going to win a lot more games than they did either this year or in a while, root for the C's.

When you say select? What are you refering to? Support a team? Managing One or trying out?\nI will answer for supporting one, you choose wisely a team that you can identify with, a team you admire not just for their individual players but for the team as a whole, their history and destiny.\nAnd it's like a marriage, you got to stick with them through thick and thin. Irrespective whether are winning or in the dumps.

I'd say Texas, they do have the best team. It really depends on what you mean as the best.  From what I understood, go for Texas.

Rules for picking your favorite team:\n\n1) You can only have one favorite team.\n2) once selected you can only change your favorite team under extraordinary circumstances. \n\nNow how do you pick your team?\n\nThe easist and most rational method is to support your hometown team.  You live in Columbus, so you don't really have one, but the Reds and Indians, both being from Ohio warrent consideration.  \n\nAlso, in Columbs you have the Clippers which is the AAA afiliate for the Washington Nationals.  This would be a great option because you can start rooting for these players at a reasonable price while they are promising stars on the come.  And then transfer that right into watching MLB games.\n\nA final way is to look around the league and find a franchise that you think is run well and pick them.  Of course if you do this you must remember rule number 2, there is nothing worse than a bandwagon jumper, to truly be a fan you have to stick with them through the bad times, it makes to good times that much better.  Also remember if you go this route don't choose the Yankees, 'cuz that's like rooting for the house in blackjack.

I want the Dallas Mavericks to win the trophy in the NBA. For the WNBA I'm gonna have to pick my home team Indiana Fever. And girls basketball doesn't suck. Whoever says that should get hit in the balls(or in the chest if u are a woman)

I'm going for the Mavericks. Not just because I'm from Texas, but because they play a style of basketball that the Heat can't compare to. They actually PASS the ball. They actually play as a TEAM, and well, I can't say the same thing for the Heat.\n\nBesides, the Mavs are playing with a lot of heart, and that's whats gonna help them win at the end.\n\n☺!!!GO MAVS!!!☻

Pretty much, you just find yourself rooting for a team, and that's when you know. Personally, I don't like to just jump on the bandwagon; I like rooting for the underdog. But that's your decision.

New Jersey has a very good chance of advancing to the semis since they have homecourt advantage and the Pacers aren't what they used to be, but I think their luck will run out if they face the Heat in the semis.  As for Sacramento, I like to root for the underdog, but were talking about beating the San Antonio Spurs four times so I'm afraid they'll be booted out of the playoffs in four or five games (even though as a Mavs fan, it would be great if the Spurs got dethroned, but I would rather have Dallas do it than Sacramento - to earn the respect of the league.)

Go to Duke, there is such energy, and you are guaranteed to go through a good season through at least sweet 16 in the NCAA tourney.  Coach K is the best, too.
