I was a Spurs fan for a long time, but I want to start following a team in the southeast, and was just curious if anyone had any compelling reasons to root for any teams down here other than proximity.

Pelicans. Because I’m from a Louisiana and after Dominique got traded to the Clippers I realized I was much more of a ‘Nique fan than a Hawks’. Still think about the “what if” if they’d have drafted Karl Malone over Jon Konkac.

I remember being at the game when Morant dunked on Hall in that Alabama game. I really wasn’t keeping up with NBA draft prospects so I didn’t really know who he was. Suddenly I saw the most viscous dunk of my life and realized I was seeing someone way beyond the college level. The whole crowd was in shock.
