Sometimes it's easy. Sometimes you are born into a family where you have no choice in which team you are a fan of. Other times it can be one of the most challenging things a child has to go through. I guess that really speaks to the lack of stress in a 10 year old's life, but that doesn't make it less true. Maybe your father isn't a fan of a particular team, or your city doesn't have a team to call it's own. That's when it's up to the kid to decide who he wants to root for, and that's a decision that lasts a lifetime. Why do you think there's so any goddamn Bulls fans nowadays? It's not because people really love praying for Derrick Rose's lower body to remain intact. It's because everyone that grew up with nothing more than a loose connection to a team decided to cheer for the team that had the best player in the world and won a championship every single year.

That's why Steve Novak's kid is basically living the elementary dream. He's got three legitimate choices (maybe more depending how old he is) for which team he decides to call his own, and no one can question him on any of them. Now, two of them kinda stink so I guess the situation could be better, but you'd have to imagine that as the son of a journeyman bench player you would want your dad to play for as many different teams as possible. Outside of your father being a star this has got to be the best possible outcome for the child of a professional athlete. Well, I guess it sucks that one of his parents is constantly being shipped all over the country, but the ability to have the pick of the litter as far as your favorite team is concerned is quite the consolation prize for a lack of father-son time. This little guy is still a young enough to be a Thunder fan for now, but then claim the Knicks if Westbrook and Durant jump ship and the Porzingis train keeps on rolling. That amount of freedom in terms of fanhood is invaluable. Other than being a Warriors fan (like 99% of our youth), it doesn't get any better than this...
