1) Trey Burke (along with our entire youth movement) No to the first part and yes to the second.
2) watching how the Nets mesh Yes
3) seeing if Indiana takes the next step Yes
4) if today's reports are correct, Royce White is gonna play. I'm super super excited to see that, if so I'm lukewarm about this
5) seeing Miami lose in the playoffs Will they have enough in the tank?

- The development of Favors and Kanter
- Following Schröder play against the best(and his emberassing twitter/instagram whenever I **** up to cheer myself up and feel smart)
- What dala said about Royce White
- See Miami get knocked out by the Bulls who proceed to win a 'chip, making #thereturn a real thing
- A new coach after the next season paired with a top3 pick and Lindsay saying: "We value Tyrone Corbin a lot, but we've noticed the risk of establishing a losing culture when we have the talent for a bright future and for the franchise to proceed in the right direction we've decided to we've decided not to renew his contract and hire ***(insert random coach not named Avery Johnson or whatever degenerate is luring to ruin another franchise)

Nice!

So you're not excited for Burke at all??


It's possible to think a player will be underwhelming, but still have some excitement to watch him play

That is true. I hope that Burke proves me wrong but I'm not excited to see him struggle mightily.

Very childish sentiment, honestly. For God's sake hold your judgement and show him your support for at least a few months.
 
1. Preseason sex
2. Beginning of the season sex
3. Mid season sex
4. Playoffs sex
5. Draft day sex (After Wuggins is drafted)

This is a wishlist, right?

I'm am strangely excited about the new jumbo tron as well.
Those that go to the open scrimmage on a week from tomorrow will have to report back to us what they think of it

I don't see him judging. Just voicing his doubt, while hoping he erred on him.

His anti-Burke sentiment has been persistent. Look, I understand that he wasn't the player that Orangello wanted drafted, but I have yet to see Burke mentioned in a non-negative tone by Orangello once this entire offseason-- using things like his preseason play as justification that he's gonna be the next Telfair.


To me, that's judgemental-- and thats exactly NOT the sort of behaviour that we --as fans-- should be showing.

While I like it I'm going to have to add something to this.

6) Warriors fall apart and we win the lottery from their pick.

This is assuming their 1st round pick we have is not protected, am I correct in my understanding?

Correct, and I was going to include that as #2 on my own list. Karma says their tanking job must be repaid in this way. :-)

#1 on my list is: watching the kids greatly exceed expectations and actually make the playoffs!

Best of both worlds: playoffs, plus a high draft pick.

I get what you mean. But maybe he's a different kind of homer. One who doesn't unconditionally love the roster, but rather one who unconditionally cheers during games keeping his finger's crossed even for Biedrins free throws, but when it's not game time reality dictates him that he really dislikes a player or isn't convinced on his game.
His voice should be accepted as long as it's not a personal attack, even if you don't agree with the content.
That's for example how I work as a fan. And with a lower talent pool overseas, there's usually plenty to hate on most individual players ;)

Yes, swats too.
And Bi Gal getting his push shots swatted and getting banged on, no homoishly, but in a very violating manner by Favors, Kanter, Evans, Burks, with Richard Jefferson putting the cherry on top with a vintage 1999 Arizona Wildcat Richard Jeffersonish tomahawk as the Jazz bench flails off the bench in pandemonium.

Al then proceeds to stomp off the court crying.

Can you blame him though? After all it was Orange who said Burke should be drafted second round, and not many looked as bad as Burke in summer league.

Coming from some others it sounds bad, but being that it's Orange, I don't mind it much.

I was really impressed by him during the CBB season. The draft before that I wanted to tame a flier on him but he didn't declare.

I certainly have my doubts but I hope I'm wrong.
