I wish Rasho would have been as good as Poetl. I was a fan of Rasho, but he seemed to be too nice out there. Poetl has some angst in his game.
i would like to get an explanation from Pop, why luka is not getting any minutes this year?

Only matter of time til they started hitting threes. Blowout incoming
why are they always wide open beyond the arc.....where the is our perimeter D?
There's that 2 vs 3 problem again
Rasho is a better fit for today's game than back then. He was also a playoff choker like Bonner, wasn't he?
Only White shows up tonight.
Bogdonavic has a nice game. He is so fluid and silky smooth. What a fun player to watch.
Can it be solved by shooters? Do we have?
It would have been palatable if
A) Luka didn’t play extremely well in an enhanced role when players were missing and
B)Pop goes on record saying “He’s earned more minutes” thereafter.
B2bs used be a given that young guys would play some more than usual. Now...
So far my sports day is good....Beard to Texas, Penguins won and moved into a tie for 1st place in their division, now the Spurs and Astros need to win.

The Spurs ain't winning this
what a ty jump ball, he gave it to the Hawks with the way he tossed it up.
capella 8 for 8 at the line
sheesh, Spurs are 6/21 from 3
DePression yelling at Pop. Murray also doesn't look too happy with him.
our offense is basically "hey let's turn down this open 3 and dribble into traffic"
With Derrick making 5 of those.
Awful roster construction.
i didn't know gallinari was still in the league
Rudy on Williams and Patty on Gallo
Trey Young in foul trouble. Spurs should turn it around with the Hawks missing 5 rotation players and Trey Young in foul trouble, so I'm excited to see how they will find a way to lose this one anyway
DWhite with a career high 6 3s

White has the same amount of 3pt that DeRozan has in his last 21 games combined. The more you know.
Ehh, I'd argue the casual fan argument isn't as clear-cut as you make it seem - there's a significant portion of "casual fans" that watch games of the team that they like, as long as they're not horrible. Case in point, the only other Spurs fan I know IRL is what I'd call a "casual": doesn't follow the team too deeply, watches about 1 in 5 games, but knows about the players and what they do. He falls out of both of your definitions, yet is still a casual Spurs fan.
Of course the Spurs could get lucky and "only" have to tank out a year or two before getting that cornerstone. Again, this isn't an argument against tanking. But you just can't tell me for sure that that'll happen, and in the same vein, the Kings and Wolves of the league once too thought they could turn it around easily. Turns out it's much, much harder than pro-tanking folks make it look - , just look at Boston right now to see what can go wrong with a tank job (someone's bound to quote me on this to argue Boston didn't truly tank, but w/e) even when you draft the correct players and they turn into stars/superstars. No guarantees.
And it again brings me to my last point - yes, I really believe this mediocre team is better to watch than a team where we trade all 4 of our vets for scraps. Again, "hope" is of zero interest to the average fan - nobody wants to see the evident growing pains of a young-players-only team losing 60+ games a year. People wanna tune in once that phase is over with. You, as a hardcore fan, would probably be enthralled (don't get me wrong, to a certain extent I would be too; but this isn't about fans like us) to see every young player given free reign to make mistakes and learn from them. But it almost unarguably makes for a ty product, and I can guarantee you that most people wouldn't be too interested in the young guns getting blown out by 20+ every night.
