What is your take on this?

do you guys believe in, if you have a favorite player and he is traded to another team but you still love your favorite player, do you guys think its wrong to start liking that other team that your favorite player/players went to.

There is nothing wrong with that, especially in a sport like basketball where the rosters are so small.

No, that what happened to me with Shawn Kemp with changes from Seattle to Cleveland to Portland to Orlando.

Depends which team

If Duncan (probably my favourite player now) got traded, I'd still be a 100% Spurs fan but would probably follow his new team a little more.

Re: What is your take on this?

Here's my deal, I'm 25 I'll be 26 next week, Iv'e loved basketball since I was like 9 years old. Started really paying attention and watching games and stuff at like 13, growing up I was a big time Blazers fan simlpy cause Clyde Drexler was my favorite player ever, I loved the Glyde. I watched the Blazers win, lose and I stuck with them no matter what. Well when the Blazers decided to trade Drexler to the Rockets back in "95", I left my fellow Blazers in the dust to follow Clyde to the Rockets to see him win a Ring wich was great. Ever since then Iv'e been a bigtime Rockets Fan ever since "95", Well Since the Rockets Traded my Favorite Player in the world for the alst 5 years "Steve Franchise" I feel lost without him on the Rockets. I mean I a bigtime Basketball fan, I'm a loyal fan too. I never could change my favorite team in football ever or baseball for that Matter. Basketball for some reason feels differn't when liking a favorite player and then he being traded. Do you guy's think I would be a sellout if I started to like the Magic just because Steve in on the Magic. Don't get me wrong I like McGrady a lot, Francis is just my favorite player, I also like Mobley too. What do you guys think.

Re: What is your take on this?

I'd care about the player and pay more attention to his new team but wouldn't like that new team (unless it's a team that's easy to root for)

For instance i've always liked Karl Malone but when he went to the Lakers I still followed his season and still hated the Lakers. It was tough tho as I wanted Malone to finally win a ring.

I wouldn't having any problems liking Magic. PLus I like Grant hill quite a bit too. It's just I miss watching francis play. I was amazed last night, I got NBA League Pass this year for the first time, and The Rockets were playing the Raptors and all I could do was watch the Magic game, I loved watching Francis dunk all iover the place last night, and I was going crazy when he hit that GWS at the end...sweet.

Steve Francis, the Cat and Big Kelvin got traded to the Magic. Now I'm checking on the Magic every chance I get and every time they're on T.V, I've marked it down. I was a Yao fan, but it gradually becomes more of a team thing. GL to the Franchise, he has Grant Hill now. That's until they play the Rockets though.

edit: lol yeah rockets fans in the house
