Default Teams That Aren't Respectable.

Not bad teams or teams that you don't like.

Which teams, you just don't respect how they play. For me it's OKC. I understand that they are a good team, but whenever I watch them and the game is just a parade to the FT line a strings of bad calls in their favor.


Don't just troll and say a team that you dislike. Don't just name players you dislike personally. Name a team and why you don't respect them. Like they rely too much on 3's or they flop a lot or something of that nature.

Grizzlies and Kings.

Also OKC trading Harden for Kevin Martin in order to be cheap makes me dislike them

Clippers.

It seems like a circus act every game. They don't really run any offense and it seems like they are always going for the homerun with their lobs.

Lob City nickname may be the worst thing to happen in the NBA because the team wants to live up to that name so there are constant lobs and dunks that seem forced.

It's also showboating.

I don't really see how that can be blamed on OKC though.
I agree it is frustrating to see them both with like 12+FTs each, but you can't hold it against them.

I dislike OKC for a different reason.

They don't run any offense and it looks like Westbrook and Durant are fighting each other for their shots.

Westbrook wants to be the man and takes the shot and Durant is the man and wants to take the shot. They both are chuckers.

The only offense they run is Westbrook dribble drive and pull up or Durant gets a screen at the arc.

I can considering how both Durant and Westbrook throw temper tantrums when a ref doesn't call a foul, then on the replay it's obvious that nobody even came close to fouling them.

Clippers.

not for the current set of players but historically, it's a team in a large market (friggin Los Angeles) and yet they couldn't put up a winning team.

It was only just when CP3 was traded there and they had Blake then many players jumped ship to form a super team there.

it's only a fad. This fad will last as long as CP3, Blake, and whoever are still there. When they are gone they will go back to the lottery and stringing fans along about how in some hypothetical utopian future they will be contenders again.

That's not respectable. it's putting out a crappy product and basically steal fans' money away.

Clippers don't have fans. the people who show up to Clippers home game wanted to see the visiting team or couldn't get tickets to a Lakers.

BTW: how crazy is that the Clips and Lakes play their home games in the same building. How spoiled LA people are...82 NBA games a season not including preseason or playoffs.

Not all players are willing to take paycuts for the benefit of the team.

Honestly, Harden is worth more than his Houston contract. OKC would have still been paying him less than he's worth.

The Heat, they're too stacked!

Nah, there really isn't a team I dislike because of the way they play...maybe the Bobcats because they suck so bad.

Teams I don't really like? Well for me it's the Clippers, just because I hate how Griffin plays, and then probably the Pacers just because they think they're tough.

Westbrook doesn't even get the superstar calls others do.

True, he's only 23 and making 16-17M a year I think, he's worth 20/yr a definite franchise player. He still has another long term contract hell be offered before he retires/starts ringchasing for cheap.

They tied 50M/3yrs to Lin and Asik though. The good part is they still have Parsons for the same amount of time for nothing.
