There was a time I quit watching the Spurs until the playoffs. I had just sold my season tickets, and was just tired of watching all those games, just to see us fold in the playoffs, yet again. I couldn't take it anymore.
I was very angry and frustrated.
It even got to the point, where I would tape playoff games...and only watch them if I knew the Spurs had won. I couldn't handle the defeats again, so I had to know before hand if they won, then I could truely enjoy the fuckups and stupid plays "well, I know we won, I can handle this..."
Then we started winning championships.
The first 2, I again was just watching playoffs, tape delayed. I couldn't bring myself to watch regular season games until after we won 2 championships. And then, I would only watch the games we won.
Last year, was really the first year since about 1995, that I actually watched regular season games...without a tape delay. I figured...ok, they might lose a few of these games, but they've won 3 championships now...they'll be there at the end. It's kinda like watching a game they played poorly in...but won. You can handle the regular season losses, if you know they're gonna have a chance of winning at the end.
And that's where I am now. Watching regular season games again, knowing that we might actually win in the end. The losses don't take me to the edge any longer. My dog will even hang around me till the end...even if the Spurs are down.
I think this is a problem unique to many of the Spurs fans from the 70's, 80's, and even 90's. The torture/depression/frustration of doing well in the regular seasons...and never doing well in the playoffs left scars. Scars that are just now healing. Post season depression was a way of life...and after awhile, you did everything you could do to avoid it. Mebbe just peeking around the corner every now and then, but never letting yourself get emotional involved.
It just hurt too damn much. We went through 20+ yrs of pain...and sometimes I still can't believe it ended.
But, it has...and I've finally accepted it. Getting mad at regular season losses during these glory days, is just silliness. People who lived through the Depression, had no job, and got their food from soup kitchens... could never understand people whining about a minimum wage job, or lack of health "insurance," when they didn't even have food on the table most days.
It's all a matter of perspective.

It's just a game. To compare it to soup kitchens and lack of insurance, or having food on the table, is taking it just a bit to far, don't you think? Whether they win or lose, in the end it's just a game. A bit too much drama on your part. This has got to be a first for Spurstalk.com. Sheesh!

If a team can be practicing new offensive sets during real regular season games and still win about 50% of them, it has a good shot at the championship.

Very good perspective from you SoutherFried. :toast Several of us veteran obsevers here can really relate to those dark days you've described. Reading your post does make one ponder the internal question of "What the hell am I getting so upset about?" Our senses have dulled the fact that there were many times, as you've stated, where a superior regular season only meant collossal playoff failure and pain. The Mavs and their fans know this all too well.
Now we have the good fortune of knowing our boys are the BIG DOGS on the block. Fighting off the yearly challenges from one team then the next. Each year the East has presented a new challenger to the Spurs championship throne. There is perennial title talk and real championship-level consideration virtually every year - not to mention the 4 titles already in the hip pocket.
I guess my frustration, albeit a small one, is that there is nothing on the bench - outside or Manu (which is a hell of a lot and I really consider him a starter) - to get me excited about. Every young, hungry player who gets a shot (Washington or Johnson), seemingly gets cut. Personally, I love seeing the hunger, enthusiasm and drive from a young player who's trying to make his mark and make the most out of his limited minutes. I realize the Spurs are playing for titles. However on nights where the veterans are seemingly disinterested, unmotivated or simply can't get it together, a couple of young, hungry bodies, with fresh legs, who are playing out-of-their-minds is usually a good antidote.
Obviously, I'm still motivated by the "drive for five" and will be for the duration of this season. At the same time, I'm already wondering what this roster will look like next year? Who will be the replacement players? Who will retire, etc.? Who will be added? I know all of this is blasphemous to even suggest. I guess the grind of a NBA long season is partially to blame for my wonderlust.
