The basketball teams with the most annoying fans are the college basketball and National Basketball Association teams whose fans don't just cheer until they can no longer speak, but annoy the heck out of opposing fans. From the overly confident fans to the whiny to the delusional, fans of these basketball teams are some of the most annoying fans in all of sports.For fans of teams that constantly see success on the court, such as the Los Angeles Lakers, the Boston Celtics and the Kentucky Wildcats men's basketball team, losing a game or series feels like a complete catastrophe. The high esteem in which they hold their team means they never think they should lose and have many highly annoying conspiracy theories to explain a defeat like the unfair officials or the untimely injury of a star player. While not all Laker, Celtic or Wildcat fans are this way, listening to the ones who are this annoying gets old after about five minutes.On the other end of the spectrum, fans of teams that are consistently bad are just as annoying. Ever talked to a Toronto Raptors fan? Ever heard them say anything positive about their sad basketball team? How about Cleveland Cavalier fans? Listening to them boo hoo about never being able to win, with or without LeBron James, is slightly more entertaining than undergoing a root canal. Just like the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/athletes-with-the-most-annoying-fans/sportsyeah" target="_blank">athletes with the most annoying fans</a> being around fans of these basketball teams is sometimes more hassle than it is pleasure. Whether these fans are in love with their NCAA Basketball teams or whine about their NBA team, all are beyond annoying.

If you&#39;re an NBA fan, the odds are extremely likely that you have a favorite team you support. That includes the most-passionate die hard loyalist to the run-of-the-mill fair weather fan. Even if you cheer for your favorite player, he plays for a team so it would be impossible not to pick that as your favorite basketball team. A lot of frontrunning basketball fans tend to cheer for glamorous teams like the Los Angeles Lakers or the Miami Heat. While the Lakers have had the biggest gulf between ardent diehards and <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/current-team-with-the-most-bandwagon-fans/colloquialism_and_the_like?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">fair weather fans</a>, the Heat fan base makes them look like the most loyal fans in the league. Lots of people will say that the Lakers are their favorite team based primarily on&nbsp;LeBron James and their&nbsp;history of winning NBA titles.

People&#39;s favorite NBA team could be the one that is closest to where they live. In cities that have more than one team, this can be a&nbsp;challenge, most notably in New York and Los Angeles. Even so, this is a better subscribed theory than people rooting for the team that&nbsp;wins championships. It&#39;s up to you to decide what the most popular NBA team is.

The coolest basketball team logos are those professional basketball team logos who have as much swagger in their graphic design department as they do on the court. Many teams and logos have come and gone throughout the years in the NBA and WNBA but these logos remain some of the coolest, classiest and most creative of all time.Just as NBA teams compete each season to determine which is the best, teams are regularly releasing new and improved logos as they continue to market their teams to fans. Some new basketball team logos are definitely received better than others. To coincide with their big move to the borough of Brooklyn, the former New Jersey Nets released a new logo as they became the Brooklyn Nets in 2012. Despite the new logo being partially designed by Jay-Z, a rap mogul and part owner of the team, fans were divided on the new look. Some adored the classic old-school feel while others saw it as an embarrassment, like the team's 22-44 2011-12 record. In other cases, basketball team logos are as much a part of the team as the players and because of that, rarely change. The Boston Celtics for example have only made minor improvements on their iconic logo since the 1950s. The Chicago Bulls logo has remain untouched since 1966 when the team played its first game. Same thing for the Los Angeles Lakers whose logo has stayed nearly consistent since their inaugural season. Whether these NBA and WNBA team logos are constantly evolving or have remained the iconic image of the franchise for decades, each of these basketball logos are some of the coolest logos in all of sports. These teams may not be playing in the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/the-20-funniest-internet-reactions-to-the-nba-finals/randolph">NBA Finals</a> anytime soon but they'll at least be looking pretty darn stylish in the meantime.

Lists that rank the team's greatest players and coaches, now and throughout history. 

A list of the best Dallas Mavericks of all time. Until Mark Cuban bought the team in 2000, the Dallas Mavericks didn&#39;t have much playoff success outside of a few seasons in the mid-to-late 1980s. The foundation of those early Mavs teams featured some of the best players in its history like Rolando Blackman, Mark Aguirre, and Jay Vincent. Once Derek Harper was brought in as the team&#39;s point guard, it seemed like the recipe for future success was in place. However, the Mavs couldn&#39;t put it all together.&nbsp;Dallas had some of the brightest talent in the league, but couldn&#39;t surpass its powerful Western Conference rivals like the Lakers.

By the time Cuban bought the team, several of the franchise&#39;s best players were on the roster. Dirk Nowitzki, Steve Nash, and MIchael Finley were already some of the NBA&#39;s brightest young players before Cuban arrived. During the early 2000s, these three players became the best in the league and are considered some of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-top-nba-players-of-all-time">greatest in basketball history</a>. By the 2005-2006 season, the Mavericks were a Western Conference power and made its first NBA Finals appearance that season. Over the next few years, the Mavs stocked up on great players, like Jason Terry, in order to chase an elusive NBA title. Finally in 2011, behind Nowitzki, widely considered the best Maverick ever, the team won its first NBA championship, getting revenge on the Miami Heat, which had defeated them in 2006.&nbsp;

This is a list of the best Dallas Mavericks of all time. If you notice someone missing, feel free to add him. Vote or rerank this list of the greatest Mavs players of all time to who you think should be considered the best ever.&nbsp;
