OKC: Destroying Spurs Fan excuses since 2012.

[SpurinDallas]

Are we gonna get these updates from you after every fucking game?

What the fuck is your point?

[spursfan09]

So what's our excuse?

[Oh, Gee!!]

What the fuck is your point?

that okc is more popular nationwide than the spurs, therefore phoenix is better than the spurs?

[SpurinDallas]

that okc is more popular nationwide than the spurs, therefore phoenix is better than the spurs?

I guess so. :lol

[spursfan09]

that okc is more popular nationwide than the spurs, therefore phoenix is better than the spurs?

O i c

[da_suns_fan]

Are we gonna get these updates from you after every fucking game?

What the fuck is your point?

That market size is not indicative of finals ratings, despite what Spurs fans have been claiming for the last decade.

[J21]

I don't think I have ever cared enough about ratings to make up excuses about why they were low, not sure if anyone else here has ever defended why they are low

[ploto]

Ironically, I think people are tuning in with hopes of watching LeBron and the Heat lose again.

How have the ratings been for Phoenix in the Finals? Oh, my bad...

[da_suns_fan]

Then you are CLUELESS. :lol

Just ask "ManInBlack"..

[da_suns_fan]

How have the ratings been for Phoenix in the Finals? Oh, my bad...

Second highest of all time back in 93. I dont know about 1976.

(Since you ask).

[Bill_Brasky]

:lmao it's 2012 and all Sunsfan has to cling to is ratings smack

[da_suns_fan]

:lmao it's 2012 and all Sunsfan has to cling to is ratings smack

:rolleyes

I wasnt here talking "smack" when the Suns swept the Spurs in 2010 (last time both teams played each other).

Im just glad OKC is FINALLY putting an end to the stupid "market size" argument for why no one watches the Spurs.

[J21]

Then you are CLUELESS. :lol

Just ask "ManInBlack"..

Didn't know he represents the whole fan base

[PublicOption]

OKC and Miami is not about markets anymore....

its about Lebron vs. Durant.

this is the NBA tryinbg to prove to everyone the star driven, rigged system makes $$$.

.....because the league promotes to hip hop black teens. parker, duncan and ginobilli + unassuming beahvior + market size=doom.


How we won those other championships I have no idea.

[SpursFanInAustin]

Second highest of all time back in 93. I dont know about 1976.

(Since you ask).

Had a lot to do with your opponent in 93, trying to make history and being the first team to threepeat since Russell's Celtics. Plus that guy named Michael Jordan being the most popular player in NBA History.

[SpurinDallas]

Second highest of all time back in 93. I dont know about 1976.

(Since you ask).

How about anytime, say, this century?

[Kamnik]

Ironically, I think people are tuning in with hopes of watching LeBron and the Heat lose again.

There is at least one person doing that - me! :toast

[Ditty]

Basketball is popular then ever imo, the western conference finals had a pretty good rating.

[Slim Charles]

Man shut your ass up. You are giving too much credit to lame ass spurs. People are tuning in to watch the Heatles. You think people really give a shit about ol' pizza face ass Durant or frogger? They are watching the King, Wade and whoever else is on that team.

[rascal]

I don't think I have ever cared enough about ratings to make up excuses about why they were low, not sure if anyone else here has ever defended why they are low

The Defense was that the Spurs have a small market.

[Beanzamillion21]

I cant wait for the game 3 ratings to come in


/thread

[rascal]

Game 7 should be the most watched game in NBA history.

[freetiago]

I bet the spurs WCF vs Lakers/Suns/Mavs had high ratings
nobody wants to watch spurs vs cavs when every expert predicted a spurs sweep/blowout nearly every game

[TampaDude]

OKC and Miami is not about markets anymore....

its about Lebron vs. Durant.


^ this :toast

[TE]

Suns fan is obsessed with the Spurs.

Someone doesn't really get the point...

Sporks fans are totally in denial over this! Sick thread da!

[Lincoln]

Glad it's OKC-MIA finals not SA-MIA. That would be boring as fuck to watch. Thanks stern :tu

:lol at the idea of old ass Manu trying to guard Wade
:lol Leonard trying to guard LeBron

[Oh, Gee!!]

Sporks fans are totally in denial over this! Sick thread da!

okay, I admit it. Market size is not wholly indicative of ratings. Are the Suns champions in your mind now?

[DMC]

I didn't realize the Suns still had fans who openly admit it.

Looks like this guy has made a solid point by all the butt hurt Spur fans responses.

[Reck]

Well no kidding...

Lebron vs Durant. Who doesn't want to see that?

[SamoanTD]

your fucking stupid

[T Park]

Yet your still here acting like a know it all.

[Sean Cagney]

LOL years later this clown still hates the Spurs from the 00's..........
I got over it in 2010.

Yeah the time you finally pass the Spurs you don't even make the finals, really good accomplishment there beating up a older Spurs team without their signature D! You didn't get over shyt so stop lying.

[100%duncan]

:lmao it's 2012 and all Sunsfan has to cling to is ratings smack

[dbreiden83080]

[KaiRMD1]

Not again.....

[lefty]

Second highest of all time back in 93. I dont know about 1976.

(Since you ask).

Interesting statistics





I have other stats for you :





0/2 in the Finals


Suns losing the Finals in front of the highest audience ever :lmao



Suns

[spurs2112]

That market size is not indicative of finals ratings, despite what Spurs fans have been claiming for the last decade.

The big difference between SA and OKC is Kevin Durant and the Thunder are more "marketable" than SA. You have Westbrook flying, dunking, yelling and chest pumping all over the place. Harden with his stare downs and funny beard. And lets not forget Durant. Durant is the next NBA superstar. The media never liked the Spurs or their style. Their stars are...well we all know the story. Long story short OKC (mainly Durant) is the NBA's new cash cow.

His point is that he hates the Spurs, has no life, and enjoys batting the hornet's nest.

Does he? Because he seems to keep up with the Spurs a lot for a guy who hates the Spurs.

Really? How about you dazzle us with the facts why...let me help you out by giving you a website with the U.S.' metro populations:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_urban_areas

Guess what? Miami is the 4th largest metro areas in the United States....nothing to do with the ratings? You can also be certain that OKC's distance to Dallas' metro area (6th largest metro) also favors OKC's fan-base.

:wakeup


Then there is to mention the mouthpiece of the NBA (the nat'l media) have been pushing stars over teams...and two of their biggest stars are playing each other.

The league pushes young athletic players....again, two young athletic stars facing each other.

I don't think Spurs fans are angry over ratings; it just further proves our point that the league doesn't care about teams, just stars.

...but seriously at least get your facts straight, saying this has nothing to do with market size is dumb.

[da_suns_fan]

Then there is to mention the mouthpiece of the NBA (the nat'l media) have been pushing stars over teams...and two of their biggest stars are playing each other.

KD is a star in spite of the fact that OKC is the second smallest market in the league!!!

Thus, market sizes dont hold exciting teams back, despite what Spurs fans (LIKE YOU) have been claiming for the last DECADE.

[da_suns_fan]

I love the fact that "WUT" believe ratings are high because of OKC's proximity to Dallas!

Cant make this shit up :)

[Man In Black]

Where's the response on that other thread. Jordan Effect....do you get it now. Probably not. It's okay...you're a loser dumb fuck...we get that from you.

[Man In Black]

Get back on that other thread loser. Recognize...you've been eclipsed.

[Legacy]

that okc is more popular nationwide than the spurs, therefore phoenix is better than the spurs?

LMFAO. Pretty much.

:deadhorse

:sleep :sleep :sleep

:lol da_suns_fan still has massive amounts of rage and asshurt

fify ;)

[Knoxxx]

I am going to renew my criticism of the NBA Finals scheduling which has been ongoing for years. Why have every game starting at 9 PM EST, on a work night for those large majority of NBA fans that work Monday-Friday?

Why no Friday 9 PM game? Why no Sunday 6 PM game?

WTF?!?!?!

[spurs2112]

Rush rules!!!
