I was watching the Timberwolve - Nugget game. Neither team looked terribly impressive through 3 (bed time I'm afraid). Poor ball movement on both sides.
It struck me that the Suns fans have a rooting interest in most games, although some are close calls. I was pulling for the Wolves because they are a lock to get into the playoffs while the Nuggets are only a threat to make the playoffs but hardly a sure thing.
I guess my principles are:
-- Always root for the eastern conference team against any western team.
-- Always root for the obvious lottery team within the west against any likely playoff team
-- Root for the elite team against the marginal playoff team
-- Always root against the Lakers no matter who they are playing
