I don't think the timing is poor or the thought is wrong in a vacuum, the main problem is that it's caught up in the overall patience grift that this front office is pulling off. It's such a perfect con - just convince people to be patient ad infinitum. If you could pull it off with some kind of real estate investment scheme, you'd be filthy rich (also a criminal, but those are just details).
Lol you make a massive cope post right after the Spurs trade away a lottery pick and blame people's reading comprehension when you get called out.I forgot the art of reading is going extinct, tbh.
What exactly were you telling people to chill out about, if it wasn't people being angry at trading the Dilly pick? There must have been some other issue that people were freaking out about for you to be telling everyone to be patient.
Right?
Hey... speaking of real estate investment schemes...
Spurs asking the city and county to foot 80% of the bill for the second-most expensive stadium in the league. https://www.sacurrent.com/arts/spurs...ciest-34925290
Makes perfect sense for one of the worst teams in the league the last 5 years to have the highest paid FO and second-most expensive stadium, right? Good thing the Spurs are pinching pennies on their roster, so they can chip in that 20%.
There will always be a base level of meltdown in ST. It's interesting to see how long it takes for most to calm down after a flare up like this draft.
That's just pro sports. I'd say the tourists are lucky the Spurs are paying that much.
Dude, this post is from the 1st page, just a couple of minutes after the OP, before supossedly getting "called out"
I understand the timing might have messed with the understanding of the message, but if people took the time to read anything other than the le of the thread, they should have known where I was going with it.
I'm not coping for , nor am I excusing the FO for the re ed trades they made during draft days. I was just stating my preference of being patient this upcoming season, and it wasn't as much a message for the rest of my fellow SpursTalkers but more towards the FO, because all this cap saving and future assets acquiring moves might indicate that a move is near and I fear is something stupid like trading for Garland. That's it. That's all there is to it. I wasn't coping, I wasn't sniffing. Anyone that read any of my comments regarding the Dilly and Furphy trades in other threads (and even on this same ing thread) knew how I felt about it.
Sure buddy, whatever you say.Don't worry. A player as compe ive as Jimmy Butler who has been to two finals in 5 years, would never ever play for a garbage ass organization like the Spurs who are more concerned with kicking the can down the road than winning basketball games.
If you ever saw a news article that said San Antonio Spurs trade for Jimmy Butler, the next article you would see would say "Jimmy Butler refuses to report because the Spurs are one of the 4 worst teams in the nba with no chance to do anything but loose their franchise player in 4 years"
I always fine this phenomenon of undesirable groups or people, and that what the Spurs are, an undesirable group, take a stance of "I would never want this person around" or "I never want this thing." It's like when a morbidly obese woman says I would never date this type of person. you weigh 330 pounds, you don't have to worry about dating anyone because no one wants you.
Spurs fans are always like "I don't want this player who has had some success in the nba because of blah blah blah." Meanwhile the last 10 times that player played the Spurs he won 9 of the games, and he is already telling his agent to block Brian Wright number.:
Two time Finals loser and consistent bridge burner Jimmy Butler is really gonna prove me wrong, put his ego to the side and win a championship in spite of what I think of him.
I don't believe in all the 'character above all' BS, sometimes you need guys with an edge to win. My issue is that when things get tough, Jimmy Butler starts running his mouth, burning bridges and 'big timing' his younger teammates. If you want a guy like that as the veteran of the Spurs locker room, then you should probably just root for whatever dumbass team trades for him.

Fair enough. I stand corrected. It was, at worst, not the greatest timing. So I guess you're right: angry fans tend not to read as clearly as they should.Dude, this post is from the 1st page, just a couple of minutes after the OP, before supossedly getting "called out"

Absolutely true. When you have fans invested enough to hang out on a fan page, someone is always going to be outraged about something.
Yep. If SA doesn't want to foot that bill, Seattle or Vegas will.
I am over it and down with the tank train in 2025- I just pray the Draft Gods will gift us another blessing and we can come out of it with some real talent to seriously begin the rebuild
The Spurs just told you that they don't need talent unless they can find it in the back half of the draft on a 2-way contract.I am over it and down with the tank train in 2025
