    It'll be inconsistent. Sometimes they will, other times they won't.

    He shouldn't! He got traded, he didn't leave on his own.

    Pretty much this. While some people openly wanted more from him on a consistent basis I don't think he ever wronged the franchise in any way and I can't remember a time where he did anything that drew a negative reaction from fans/media aside from the previously mentioned consistency topic. Anyone remember anything that really caused some kind of uproar?

    Thread title asks if Batum will be booed; it doesn't say "Will Barton" get booed.

    When he said that Minnesota was where he really wanted to play, even though he knew we were going to match?

    Riiiiight... forgot about that one! Didn't it come out that it was all his agent on that one? I remember he made a mess of things there- but definitely a good point- I can see how some would hold that one against him.

    By me as well. But if I remember, plenty of other fans do as well, including those that are much more likely to hold a grudge.

    He most definitely shouldn't get booed. Whether you wanted more from him or not, he was a pretty good player for us for a long time. He had a down year last season and he was the first to admit it. I wouldn't boo him for that. Hopefully we don't make ourselves look stupid as fans.
