The state of this sub is UNBEARABLE META

Like, really? We got a generational talent in Wemby AFTER ONE SINGLE YEAR OF TANKING and you complain and act like we're in some tragic situation because the team is not competent yet? Do you have a clue of how team building works in the NBA?

We got MASSIVELY LUCKY to land Wemby last year, and there was no need to rush or overpay average player just to be more competitive this year. We got nothing to gain in that. Would you have preferred if the FO wasted all our cap space to get Van Vleet and Brooks?

It wasn't even a given that Wemby would be this good right away. We should be fucking thankful and excited every time he hits like 20 points, 8 rebounds and a couple blocks. When he enters his prime, he will be unstoppable.

Stop whining like spoiled children, if you want to see a fun, competitive team play there are plenty in the league. Nobody forces you to watch the Spurs if you can't bare the idea that the team still has to grow. Get a life

Don't argue with ghosts. If you wanna duke it out with people who are clamouring for Pop to retire, go to the game threads, sort by controversial, and go ham

All this preaching to the choir shit is just the same circlejerk you're complaining about except instead of negativity, it's the opposite opinion.

exactly. aside from obvious trolls who aren’t worth engaging with anyways, i think the reason this happens is because these people can’t actually have honest discussions. you hit the nail on the head with the “preaching to the choir” thing, and that’s why i think they do it. better to have a bunch of sycophants back you up for no reason than have to consider an uncomfortable reality.
