So who among us is a true pels fan and will be rooting for a divisional rival that ended our best playoff run to win a fricking title?

I know the heat have taken up residence in a lot of posters' heads lately, but you are godawful if it's so bad that you actively root for a dvisional rival gets yet another title.

I don't care if you root for the Heat. You don't have to, and there's nothing wrong with not rooting for them, but frick the Spurs.

TIA.

Spurs winning reinforces the San Antonio model we are supposedly trying to emulate.

Spurs winning knocks LeBron down a peg for those that have a dog in the GOAT fight.

Spurs winning is substance beating sizzle in an era where we're told you need the big name FAs to contend.

Spurs winning might make Duncan/Pop more likely to retire thus opening a hole for the Pelicans.

Spurs winning might make CP3 and Dwight less likely to want to form a Big 3 possibly in our own division.

There are a great many reasons to want the Spurs to win that have nothing to do with "rooting for a rival"

Sorry, brah, even though they broke my heart in the Western semi's, I still admire the Spurs organization, its coach and its team. I'm pulling for them.

In this instance, you have to give respect where it's deserved. Spurs aren't flashy and have a great team with the best coach in the league. Beat the Heat!

Spurs are the lesser of two evils.

And I can't stand Wade's floppin arse. I also would like to see Bosh's sissy arse break down and cry like a hoe again.

Actually the heat are the antithesis of our hopes and dreams. Players leaving small market teams.

Fuuuuuck that. I'd root for Al queda over the heat.

Living in West Palm beach the amount of heat flags that have magically appeared on cars is pathetic. Screw this jersey Shore reject and illegal immigrant fanbase and frick the diamond and rhinestone encrusted cesspool that is the city of Miami.

I cannot root for another team in our division, so go Heat.

Also, I can't get a refund on my bandwagon tickets.

If it hurt the Pelicans even a little bit then go Heat go. But the Pels aren't there. Its just rooting for good ole fashion no flash team basketball vs. a bunch of fake tough guys.

Go Heat. Love LeBron too much not to. Who needs LeBron to be knocked down a peg? When he retires, Anthony Davis will still be a Pelican and he'll be entering his prime. So go Heat!
