1. The Boston Celtics
Bill Russell
The Godfather of Defense in basketball, and the mantra "defense wins championships"
Stood together with Muhammad Ali, Jim Brown, and Kareem to fight for justice
Paul Pierce and Antoine Walker are my earliest memories of watching my Celtics which only added to my love of them
2. Yankees
Their dominance in the 90s were the time I was growing up in NYC. Jeter is the ultimate living legend in NYC and forever loved. Easily the most popular team in NY. Them and the Brooklyn Dodgers are the essence of NY
These are the only 2 teams I root for. Outside of them, I follow more individual sports, Boxing and Tennis. Honorable mention to the NY Giants though
