Magic Top Celtics in 7

10 Things to do when your team gets eliminated from the Playoffs

by controversialcalvin

1. Blame the refs
The refs always determine the outcome of the game. How many times have you remembered the refs making a bad call that affected the game down the line?

2. Hate the team that eliminated your team for at least 5 years
Why? Because that team took your joy, they made you not want to watch nba for the rest of the playoffs, and most importantly, they took away your opportunity to buy your team’s championship tshirt/hat/dvd set. Cavs fans, Laker fans, and Bulls fans are secretly happy to see the Celtics lose this year. Hate the team until they eventually trade all the players that orignally beat your team. Unless you are a Lakers/Celtics fan. Some rivalries never die.

3. Hate the opposing team’s best player for the rest of your life (unless he gets traded to your team)
It’s not fair that your team loses to players like Lebron, Dwight Howard, and Kobe Bryant. Lebron travels all the time, Howard is on steroids, and Kobe is too cocky. Those player’s cheat…unless they end up on your team somehow. Then they can do no wrong.

4. Blame David Stern
We all know he has a matchup he wants to see in the finals, and if you are reading this it probably wasn’t your team. This year’s story is Kobe vs. Lebron.

5. Blame the refs again
Why do they keep messing up so many calls. Dallas fans probably hate everyone who wears black and white right now.

6. Cheer for the next opponent of the team that eliminated your team
It hurts when your team eliminated, but if feels a little better to see the team lose in the next round. All their hopes and dreams will be crushed like yours were.

7. Change favorite teams by jumping on a bandwagon
It never hurts if you cheer for the winners. Just ask Johnny Fairweather.

8. Make bitter comments on message boards
You cant have the other fans be happy when you are down. Point out things like “the Magic have no chance of getting past the Cavs, they are just making their summer vacation shorter” or “the Celtics would have never beat the Lakers last year if Bynum was playing”

9. Act like you knew all along that your team would lose, trying to save some face
If you act like you knew your team was going to lose all along then it makes it harder for others to rub the loss in your face.

10. Blame the refs one more time
Why dont they use instant replay more often? They never call a fair game.
