This is a 2 parter. But do you guys think the media has unrealistic expectations for the season? I feel like everything I’m seeing says the spurs should win around 40 and they’ve made all these changes and they need to be in the play-in race. But we lost 60 last year. I feel like they want to see what happened in Duncan’s rookie season but that happened also because Robinson was coming back from injuries. So do you guys think they’re expecting too much from the team?
And do you guys like all the media attention? I was born into this fandom and I watched us win 67 games and get talked about like once a week on sports shows where as the Warriors won 73 and we’re an everyday topic. And now that we have a generational player a lot of people are talking about us nonstop but didn’t when we had Kawhi, or Duncan.
Edit: I’m referring to the ESPN stuff that’s been talked about, Fox has talked about rapid improvement and all the smaller channels that are like “they need Jrue or CP3.” And the linking to every win now player
No I don’t think so. I think ppl want those 25/10/5/3 stat lines from Vic pero it will come in time. A good season would be learning from mistakes and 15/8/2 with 35%+ from 3.
I’m hoping for 28-35 wins and would be thrilled with that. Best case win a play in game
