Personally, I'd root for the team that Almost became the Sonics. Heh, even the Sonics have seen the playoffs more recently. Those same Spurs ousted them in the 1st round of 02, and 2nd round in 2005.
Nah, I hate the NBA now. I'd be comfortable somewhat rooting for the Astros because in my heart they're an NL team, not a division rival. I'd always root for the Mariners as well though. The park in Houston would get to experience me at some point for sure. Couldn't ever be a Rangers fan. But I grew up just outside Seattle.
