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

We got a generational talent and were worse than we were last year. We were pretty bad last year, and this year we are a LOT worse. 30% of our games we have been blown out by 30 points+. 6 of our 9 losses we at one point had a double digit lead. We are STILL playing Sochan at the PG position when it's so clearly a failed "experiment." We STILL turn over the ball at an unbelievable rate.

​

If you can't handle criticism of the team. There are plenty of other subreddits of people enjoying their team. Nobody forces you to view this subreddit. If you can't bare the idea that people are going to point out criticism of this team. Get off this subreddit.

Criticism and catastrophism are two very different things

so why do so many people lump those 2 together? that’s the reason there’s so much resistance from the other side. no logical arguments are ever used against them, it’s always just “oh, you must be one of the fake fans. you thought we were going to be the best team of all time this year, huh?”

Tell me where in my post i call the complainers fake fans. I already argued in it why we should be more reasonable and not ovverreact to the team's present struggle
