One of the most important parts about being a fan is picking what team to root for. Here is a list of teams to choose from for your favorite Basketball team. Make sure to choose one team that above all others will be the team you root for. Once you have chosen a team, all the other teams in that division become your rivals and you want them to lose. Most people choose a team based on what part of the country they are from, like a nearby major city. Some people choose based on who is doing well at that time (fair weather fans). Some people choose because they like the name of the team. No matter how you decide is fine, the only requirement is that you stay loyal to a team once you have chosen them. Good or bad.
