    I am a Spurs fan living in NY, so help me out here do you guys in SA always wait to the last minute for tickets. I mean i am shocked to see tickets still available for the home opener with Lebron coming to town.

    It is the home opener and it is Lebron, i always see the At&t center pretty much filled so i guess you guys like to wait till the last minute.

    Fans are tired of the bull that Pop is selling, that's all. The old school fans just aren't interested right now until he can prove his pickups are worth a .

    I don't get excited over the Nuggets backup, the lottery knicks benchwarmer, the Raptors throw aways and the Nets 3rd pg.

    Sorry.

    Well what the did you want, KG coming to the damn Spurs or something. This was not a hugely talented FA pool this offseason. Nazr and Rasho both sucked especially last year. Watch Nazr do next to nothing all year in Detroit this year. It is not like the Spurs had the money to sign Wallace and were to cheap to do it. If the Spurs had such a bad offseason why are so many people still picking them to win the le.

    This is about ticket sales not betting on sports.

    I say again what did you want in the offseason, they have tons of STAR POWER already. You got 3 all stars in your starting 5, Spurs were not picking up a superstar in the offseason there were none out there.

    It's because Spurs fans are spoiled and used to winning. They aren't hungry or excited. Even playoff games last year weren't sold out til the last minute (and sometimes not really sold out, though the numbers show otherwise).

    I don't care about Lebroad. And I hate the way the NBA force feeds this guy to everyone. King James my ass! This is why the NBA is second to the NFL. And it isn't even a close second. The NFL markets teams that win. Teams that you will see winning championships. The NBA markets guys who are on average teams. Therefore when the playoffs roll around and the ratings suck you know why! The NBA SUCKS!!! I never buy anything official from the NBA. I buy bootleg!!!

    Actually Baseball is 2nd to the NFL, the NBA is 3rd. As far as the NFL just marketing teams that win, they have been shoving Michael Vick and Peyton Manning down everyones throats for years now and they have won what exactly.

    I'm not sold or wanting this but the Spurs' winning ways could produce much better fan support somewhere else.

    I looked it up according to insidehoops.com the Spurs do average a sellout every game, so obviously they just wait till the last minute but they fill the building.

    They technically sold out all last season. But I'm at every home game and can tell you that many games 100's of seats and some games 1000's of seats were empty.

    So how do they get away with just making up attendance figures?
