For me it was the Raptors, but I wanted to educate myself a bit more on all the teams and now feel like I have a better understanding of their roster (Schroder is better than y’all give him credit for). Ik Raptors fans aren’t too happy with the squad but I’ve had a lot of fun watching them lately.

I remember I used to talk about the Raptors and say they were trash without knowing more than 4 of their players. I think it’s important to actually know the team before talking about them. Sorry Raptors fans, I actually like most of your players and the defence is immaculate.

I’d say now it’s the Pacers but seeing them win games and others hyping them up, I’m going to try to see more of their games.

Ig this post is for more experienced NBA fans, try to educate yourself on teams you don’t know too much about before talking about them.

I only know players at this point and I don't know what team they're on. Full Chuck.

The most I know about them is Reggie Miller and they took Lebron's Cavs to 7. Oh, and Myles Turner always seems to be in trade talks but never moves.

Like right now or in general? In the past, the Raptors are synonymous with the Vince Carter era. Everyone wanted to be like Vince after Iverson/Kobe.

Raptors are coming off of a title not too long ago.

I meant as in currently. I only became an NBA fan during the 22/23 season so I didn’t get to experience the Toronto title.

Just play hoop grids and you find out quick which team you know the least about.

I ain't never heard of a Jazz fan

Right now the Nets. I don’t hate them or anything. Just don’t know too much about them, their vibes, or what’s going on currently with them. I know Claxton is great. That’s about it really.

I pretty much know the main guys and rosters of the teams, but I feel like the Clippers are the team I saw the least in the past few years. Like I know their players but don't know their sets/playing style or how they defend. Did watch their 2020 bubble playoff matchup against the Nuggets. I'd say the other team is the Jazz. I know the roster but don't see them enough to understand why THT is their starting point guard. I've maybe watched them twice in the last 2 years.

The Magic. It's like after Hardaway and Shaq, they disappeared from my memory ... with a brief blip when Hill went there and Duncan didn't.

[–] SubcooledBoiling@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Orlando Magic. I literally can't name any one of their players.

[–] SeizureMode@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Probably the Pacers, Wizards, Knicks and Trailblazers

[–] salivana@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Spurs pre wemby. Now they’re becoming my second team
