I have always loved the NBA. Never really rooted hardcore for a team. There were teams and players I liked and some I didn't, but never really had a team of my own. I just landed on the Hawks because I loved the Braves and decided to go with another Atlanta team. I have never been super invested in the Hawks though. I consider myself a Hawks fan, but my fandom for them has never been at a high level. The only team I actually live and die with is Michigan State, but as I grow older the losses sting less and the wins don't seem to be a satisfying. Life changes and priorities shift. I would say I am just another victim of that cycle.
