    I was a total #2 (and people who sat near me at games could smell it on me), until Game 7 of the WCF in 2000. Since then, I'm mostly a #1, with occasionally lapses into #1 (like Game 4, when I refused to believe the Blazers would lose...).

    has a deep desire and love for their team, but doesn't get emotionally attached

    We just hookup with the team on occasional nights. We are fans with benefits.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    'm generally #1. When I deviate, it's generally to the optimistic side, I'd say.

    So you didn't feel jealous seeing Dallas gangbang them like that?

    The team is free to make it's own choices; if they want to star in Blazers Does Dallas who am I to tell them not to?

    None of the above. A lot of 2 but don't hate everyone on the team when they lose, just get suicidal. Try to be #1, emotionally attached definitely, but realize that the world does not stand and fall on a basketball game. Doesn't always work.
