What is your breaking point as a fan?

What would it take for you to stop following this team? At what point would you just say f**k it and quit rooting for this pathetic franchise?

Trading away Anthony Randolph for scraps?
A trade for Eddy Curry?

Not Marco Belinelli...I've been through too much to allow that guy to be the straw that broke the camel's back...Unloading AR would probably do it...

- Trading young players for an unextended upcoming FA like Bosh/Amare
- Being outbid by another team for Morrow next offseason
- Watching Randolph get frozen out by S-Jax, Monta, and Maggette
- Curry being given the green light and shooting 35% on 15 fga/gm
- Turiaf being dealt for an expiring contract

Trading randolph, I might lose it then.

Lets be honest...the Warriors FO could come in and gang rape the female members of our families, kick our dogs in the mouth, and burn our houses down and we'd still cheer this team on.

Is anyone here a psychologist? I'd love to hear the clinical definition of what we are afflicted with as Warriors fans.

They do it all the time. Trading away young talent and giving up on them and getting new ones. Out goes bellinelli, in comes curry. dont be surprised to see curry get traded in a few years.

breaking point is pretty close for me. the warriors had a nice lookin team in 2007.
It all started here:
1. Trading jrich away after playoff season for Brandon Wrong
2. Baron opting out. (3 yr extension woulda been solid)
3. ellis gettin dumb on himself and injurin himself.

Im not sure I'd ever stop supporting the Warriors. Crazy huh? Yeah I know, but thats just the way I am.

If Randolph was traded then I think I'd lose interest in NBA basketball more so than the Warriors in general.

I couldn't possibly cheer for another team with passion. I'd always be wanting the Warriors to rise up. I suppose old rem is the most qualified to answer this question because I fear I am on the same long supporting unsuccesful team following that he has been on for xxxx years.

It's my curse though and I'll live with it. I'd rather live this way than jump ship and follow another team half hearted.

If Randolph goes then I'll stop watching basketball, not the Warriors.

as a fan of the warriors, i would never stop being a fan, no matter how bad this team could turn out, even at its lowest point. i'll still be a proud warriors fan.

Meh. I kind of like it when posters use self-portraits for their avatar. Change it back.

btw Coxy, yours always looks like a garden gnome when I see it in the corner of my eye. Kinda distracting.

This is the breaking point as far as the We Believe stuff. There's nothing gonna happen as long as this crew is in charge. I picture a GSW strategy meeting as like a damn dog fart contest. The rankest thing wins out. Bottom feeders.

Yeah...the IRS probably will haul Cohan off and Ellison or whoever will can Rowell and Riley,by then Nellie is in Maui paid as a "consultant and nobody currently on this roster is still here (maybe Acie Law).

When the Oakland Raiders went to LA.....they stopped being the Oakland Raiders. When they left LA they were just the Al Davis Raiders and pretty boring. I pay little attention to them and have no more interest in them than any other team. I liked the Oakland Raiders. That no longer exists.

I used to be a hardcore baseball fan but the deck is stacked,the game is rigged. Only a half dozen money teams can still compete based on strategy. The rest can get lucky once every 10 years...then the rich folks buy away their stars. It's become too much like real life. For most teams its just a game of chance. When your once a decade chance comes up you gotta get lucky. Used to be a fine sport..now a game of chance...too bad.

I may watch the trainwreck with morbid curiousity....but I think I cared and after all...it's only business.

I agree on the first four. Turiaf? If it was a straight Rony for expiring, then you are right. If he was the last piece in a salary dump that let them get rid of, say, Jax and Maggs for a huge expiring? Say you could send the 3 of them to Houston for TMac. Tempting. Never happen though, Nellie needs his heady veterans.

Nick left out Boozer.
Guess he's fine with the upcoming rent-a-schlub.

Meanwhile, lol at anyone talking big about always supporting a team tey don't spend any actual money on! :lol:

My breaking point is one of the following:

1) They pull a "Sonics" and leave for somewhere obscure / a different time zone.
2) Our next mascot implemented is a Golden State Feirry, Unicorn or Seahorse.
3) If any deal agrreed upon that sends out any of the following AND returns any of the following:
Sending out:
Randolph
Morrow
Returning:
ZBo
Marbury
Iverson
4) We have a chance to get any of the following ULTRA REDICULOUS UBER stars, and we botch it:
Cp3
Lebron
Howard

Trading Randolph or not keeping Morrow would really upset me.

I dont have a breaking point.

I was born in the Bay Area... and im nto going to bandwagon anyone elses team.

All know is the Warriors arent seeing ANYMORE of my money while they try to peddle this glossed up baby crap to me.

I'm surprised it took you so long Nick...I understand youre more of a "see it to beleive it, live in the moment" guy, but this has been going on for some time, this team has been going nowhere fast with a owner only concerned about $$ (not winning), and FO, who consistently just do "enough" to make an "exciting" team filled with "potential".

Only thing is they got lucky by drafting Randolph...thats basically it...they got lucky...and the cold part is Nellie wanted Javale McGee...

Devean George?

Whatever.

Lets Trade Brandan Wright for Jack McClinton and get this over with.
