    Which is more of a fan?

    A.Celebrates when a player on a team plays well, even if he's inconsistent, and hopes for him to fully break out and be the all-star scorer the team needs.

    B.Finds as many reasons to criticise a player on the team as possible, discounts any good play or successes and hopes for him to fail, which means the team loses out overall.

    It's such a tough conundrum, I understand why people find it so difficult...

    The one who supports the team, not the one who only supports one of the worst players on the team.

    Optimistically pessimistic, if that makes any sense. I think it's totally possible that Green could hit that next level. He may even have a superstar ceiling. However, I think there's also a very good chance he ends up as a microwave scorer a la Jordan Clarkson, which would be disappointing, but guys like Clarkson can make a lot of money in the NBA.
