Well, how do you fare compared to the Zeitgeist? Chat up your fellow wooters and let us know how lame this poll was or what obvious choices we missed. For example: Was this poll a) STUPID, b) DUMB, c) POINTLESS or d) ALL OF THE ABOVE?

Ditto. That should have been an option; you don't have to be from Cleveland to feel that way. As it turns out, Oklahoma's a likable team anyway.

As a Cleveland sports fan there are only two basketball teams I root for: the Cavaliers and anyone that beats the Heat.

The basketball season ends in March & April. The NBA playoffs are so anti-climactic after the NCAA tournament. 7 game series get tired. Over half of the teams in the NBA make the playoffs often several teams with losing records get in. I don't care about series until game 5 or 6.

C'mon!!
Think about it.
How cool would it be to have a team from Oklahoma (ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?) City beat the Miami Heat for the World Championship of Basketball!

The best thing about basketball is that you can watch the last five minutes of the game and you've seen everything that matters.

I'm not from Cleveland but there was no "Thunder cause I hate Miami" option...

I just hope LeBron never wins a championship. I wish I could find audio for this quote but my favorite sound byte of his is "Just tryin' to be a global icon." That's his cross to bear.

As others have said, you really missed a significant option: Thunder, because I dislike the Heat.

I quit watching the NBA when the victors would flash their gang signs to their homeys. No class bums. Go back to your hoods. It's unbelievable how bad that sport has become. They threw the rules out the window for entertainment purposes. It seems the only "sport" to do so. I guess I'm too much of a purist.

Thunder, because I'm a Celtics fan and must therefore hate Miami. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
