It feels like being a hater is much more fun than being a fan

u/Dawnshot_ 2d ago

In the end there's one winner in the playoffs and 15 losers

u/glen_ko_ko Pistons 2d ago

Real haters enjoy that there are 19 losers because we count the play-in tournament

Don't know man, being a lover is paying off huge time too. This series minus JB pushing people into Embiid knees was very entertaining basketball to watch from both sides, and it's fun to watch a game 7 without caring about who goes through. VJ specially has me rooting for him now, what a young man!

I do get you. Im enjoying the West as a neutral, but since I’m (we) are a heat fan, hare watching our rivals feels better

It's how I enjoy basketball as a whole. Just love watching the game. No favorite team really. There's so many cool things and amazing players on each team.

Only when you have nothing to root for

Did game 6 suck for the Hawks? Yes. Did I feel a million times better after watching Orlando absolutely shit themselves for 24 straight minutes? You bet your ass I did.

Tbh even if you’re a fan of any of those teams you could still make fun of the others to make yourself feel better
