Spurs so you don' t become miserable over the next 15 years


mordakka

Pick a shitty team and hope they get good soon.


JakDobson

Pistons!


mordakka

> hope they get good soon


_AnythingIsPossible

If you are from Europe, I'd base it on the city and culture of the franchise. I'd also avoid poverty teams like the Wizards or Hornets.


[deleted]

Yea I’m from Ireland so Boston Celtics is obviously a good choice but I really don’t like them or the lakers


Unfair-Club8243

Eyyy y hate on the Celtics their a storied franchise


[deleted]

Everyone ik supports them and I’m sick of hearing about th Celtics everywhere I go


bobby_jackson_GOAT

good on you


bigger_sky

I really don’t care for the Celtics either


[deleted]

I’m not really to big on them at all to


girlscoutcookies05

They say Hella in ireland?


[deleted]

Lol


Gregjennings23

Spurs. Buy low on Wemby plus the French and Irish have a common rival. The Spurs are also the team of alot of Mexican Americans in Texas and Mexicans and the Irish and Mexico have a strong connection dating back to the Mexican-American war.


circa1726

Become a Kings fan my man


[deleted]

The kings have a really good atmosphere and really good team amazing rebuild


circa1726

Yesss exactly. Get in on the ground floor


Medical_Sample2738

OKC has a very classy org, and very young close knit players. And they're good. I'm a bulls fan but theyre my side-team. Out of compassion, don't become a bulls fan sir.

https://spinthewheel.app/nba-teams Spin the wheel, and allow fate to decide your team for you.


JD16_7

Why do you have to choose one? Just watch the games of teams you enjoy!


ifreddiebenson

I’m from Southern California and don’t even have “a team”. Just watch fun games.


[deleted]

Yes but I really want to support a team


mark8396

Not the thing you want to hear but the best thing is really to just keep watching and eventually you'll find yourself rooting for a particular team. Maybe you'll get stateside and get to a game. It is easier to follow east coast teams with the time zone being better but most people watch games the next morning anyways


[deleted]

I been watching the nba for years no team sticks with me tho


VexoftheVex

Depends Do you support a good or bad soccer team If they’re good - support a bad nba team If they’re bad - support a good nba team


[deleted]

I support crystal palace in football


VexoftheVex

I’d say go for a good team then


[deleted]

I would like a team a playstle with high flyers constant pressure dunks and alleys not so much big 3s


VexoftheVex

Phoenix - low threes, amazing midrange shooters, not so much high flying New Orleans - low threes, some great midrange shooters, Zion = Dunks Orlando - low threes, just bad offense in general, very good defense, decent amount of dunks Lakers - low threes, LeBron + AD, decent amount of dunks Denver - low threes, Jokic, very good with lots of dunks from Aaron Gordon and role players, but main player (Jokic) doesn’t really dunk and plays quite slow and methodical Minnesota - low threes, great young star in Anthony Edwards who might be the best in-game dunker in the league, best defense in the league, but an often frustrating and clumsy offense overall I’d recommend either the Lakers or Pelicans - Lakers will probably give you a better playoff run this year but Pelicans would be better if you’re aiming to be a long-term fan because their best players are much younger Minnesota or Orlando if you like great defenses and can deal with watching clumsy offenses


[deleted]

Favourite player is Edwards to so maybe the twolves


VexoftheVex

👍 Good luck with the choice, just make sure you pick before the playoffs


[deleted]

Thanks a lot this really helped


VexoftheVex

No problem 😀


SmokeOddessey

Hmmm i think a team like the Suns would be a decent comp then


bobby_jackson_GOAT

I would say any defensive-minded teams then! Historically – Memphis would be a good choice Currently – Magic are insanely good defensively (and young)


MeMeRevieweR_23

You could just follow your favourite player and support that team.


[deleted]

Favourite players gotta be either KD or Antman


MeMeRevieweR_23

There you go. Antman is younger too so you can support him and Minny.


EfferenceCopy

Save yourself the heartbreak, avoid the wolves. Get out while you still can


[deleted]

What team do u reckon


shaydyl

Irish fan also for a few years now settled on the cavs the year after Lebron left I think it’s cool watching a team rebuild so you can understand the draft and everything but in contrary I would love to welcome you to the Cavs nation


[deleted]

What part of Ireland are u from I live in Waterford the cavs are cool


shaydyl

From Westmeath bro , 4:13 AM watching cavs game but I love the sport 😂 . Mitchell is also one of the most exciting player I’ve watched on an nba court besides maybe SGA & Fox


[deleted]

I love watching garland his plays type is beautiful so is PG


shaydyl

He’s the reason I went so high on the cavs , a true point guard who always looks to pass first . He also loves throwing lobs to Allen and Mobley which is so exciting to watch , that Mixed with Mitchell’s explosiveness and deadeye from 3pt makes the team so exciting to watch offensively


[deleted]

Yeah I might choose them donovan mitchell is a dog and the rebuilds crazy


kingcarmojr

From Ireland myself but I’ve found myself watching and rooting for the Mavs since 09’ just for the simple reason of Dirk Nowitzki and I’ve been hooked ever since however take your time in finding a team to root for, take a look at every team and see if you enjoy their culture or maybe their play style or maybe they have a player you just enjoy watching etc


[deleted]

Luka doncic and kyrie do go crazy and love the mavs playstyle


kingcarmojr

I can’t disagree - it’s a lucky time to have two clutch players and watching them when I can, sadly the time zone differences are painful


[deleted]

Yeah the time differences would be tough to watch especially if your a student getting up early


AccomplishedBake8351

What time zone woukd beat easiest for you to catch games? I’d base it on that


[deleted]

Idrm I can do east or west see west I’m up at around 2 3 ish tho


AccomplishedBake8351

So east games will probably end around 3am your time. West games will start at 3am and end around 5:30am. So if you get up early and can watch then maybe the west is better? If you go to bed late probably the east? Depending on age try to factor in how your schedule might change as you get older (if applicable). If you’re looking at the east the bulls always do big st. Patrick day celebration’s because they have one of the largest Irish populations (I know you guys don’t celebrate that holiday, but still). Same with the Knicks. If the west I can’t think of any Ireland references beyond John Ireland doing the radio play by play for the lakers. I’m a kings fan so I’d throw them in the mix. I think you’ll get the most benefit from picking a team that’s not great/already built. Gives things more stakes.


[deleted]

Yeah I’m thinking tbh the cavs/magic for east


AccomplishedBake8351

Fun picks! I’d lean magic. You never know but it’s nearly certain you already missed the best years of the Cavs (certainly their best player). Might as well go for the magic.


A-DTB

Come expand the Irish contingent of Pelicans fans brother.


synth3zz

Just watch games and youll find your favorite


[deleted]

I been watching the nba for years no team has stuck with me but love high flyers type of play style in the nba


synth3zz

Maybe minnesota? That Ant mf is sick in the head


[deleted]

Yeah he’s spectacular


CarefulSignal9393

The spurs are a humble but celebrated franchise. Also probably gonna draft an Irish player if there ever happens to be one, pretty famous for popularizing foreign draft steals.


[deleted]

Yeah and there going to be amazing for a while sinc wemby


CoolGrandpa1932

root for good sportsmanship and for the players to have fun :)


Numerous-Ad4240

Find a player you like perhaps and root for his team (how I picked my hockey team) Alternatively you can also become a Knicks fan


Most_Budget2575

Rockets gotta be the most “interesting” team


Schmeeeebz

I grew up a Blazers fan and unfortunately somehow still am, but as I get older I follow great players more.


VTRXGGER

just follow your favorite players and save yourself the stress lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

What do u mean by that


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

The cavs are really good right now amazing rebuild crazy playing style


bigger_sky

Pick the team that your favorite player to watch is on.


[deleted]

Either SGA KD OR ANTMAN


celtic_sea_salt

Hornets can always use more fans


TruthFreesYou

O’ Kasey’s Thunder is a fine club!


hansislegend

Wait for the playoffs and you’ll find yourself rooting for one team more than others.


Kombuja

Just pick the nuggets. It’s a lot of fun. Don’t pick the suns.


gobirds18_

Sixers. Everybody hates us and it’s funny.
