How many of you are rooting for the Cleveland Cavs?

I am. Living in Chicago where everyone hates the Cavs has turned me into a huge Cavs fan.

i even recall the Cleveland Arena days, a dilapidated structure on the near eastside, where Cavs played (and a sophomore named Jerry Lucas torched East Tech for 52 in state finals).
its TIME to bring it home, complete the journey.

I was lucky to be working at Parmatown during the Miracle of Richfield year. Easy shot down Broadview to 271 and north to 306. Went to a number of games, predicted that the Cavs would win the division shorty after the trade for Nate Thurmond (Cavs were in last place at that time), got to one playoff game against the Bullets (back up two guard Austin Carr was the star in that one), and never, ever, heard a sports arena as loud as the pounding cry of "LET'S GO CAVS, LET'S GO CAVS," fully 30 minutes before teams were even on the floor.
NBA playoff basketball is SO different and a real treat for me.

Not a basketball fan but as a Western PA native the answer is NO! It's Cleveland and if I rooted for the Cavs or any Cleveland team I would be barred from future family reunions.

Steve: The Cavs fans of 75-76 were among the most passionate in history. Only other time I've seen anything like it in Cleve was the Indians series with the Yankees in 1997.

Phenomenal period. Listened to the playoffs on the radio. Great times. They win the title if Chones doesn't break his foot.

I grew up (from about 3th grade) a fan of Cleveland and it's teams. I worked at The Coliseum in Richfield when I was in high school. Those were good teams and fun teams to watch. Mark Price, Brad Daugherty, HotRod Williams et al were the team of my adolescence. Sometime after high school (around the time the Browns ceased to be), I just gave up on the teams from Cleveland.
Would it be nice for The Cavs (or the Indians, or the Browns) to win a championship? Sure. Am I rooting for them? Nope.

Would be impossible for me to care less.

I haven't watched a basketball game in over ten years, so I normally wouldn't care, but I think it would be a good boost for the city of Cleveland to win a title, so I do want the Cavs to win.

Maaaaaaan. I'm rooting for the whole dang city! I will feel so happy for that community if the Cavs can bring a championship to the city.
I have only watched three games this season - the most recent three. And I plan to watch from game 6 of this series until it ends.
Go Cavs!
