Jackpotting Around - Episode 50 Tankxiety and the Trade Machine

Saying those who wish for Ws not thinking past single games is just the most arrogant BS ever. There are people who are super super casual and/or dumb enough to not realize there is a draft and that we may forfeit our pick.... but that is a small minority of people. Most fans ARE passionate and know their teams affairs to that level. The vast majority of people who do know these basic facts probably have 1000 different reasons why they hope the team goes one way or the other.

Seeing the big picture is about realizing there are many paths and and even more variables.., not fixating on one path and saying its the only correct one. So I would argue that instead of actually seeing the big picture, you are proving the exact opposite.

I think you have it the other way around. To be clear, I’m talking about all fans. Like anyone who might attend or watch a game on TV. We’re really the minority compared to general population. And that’s not arrogance or saying we’re better for it lol.

Fan does not equal spectator. Anone who gets the title "fan", must be that much aware of the teams affairs. There are a lot of spectators in NBA games (in arena and on TV) who arent fans, but those guys arent really part of the debate either.

Hardcore fans are a minority for sure... but this isnt stuff that only hardcore fans know. Most of these discussions just takes place in workplaces, schools and when buddies meet up to grab a beer. The internet forum thing is kind of for those who dont have those networks because of their location or some other reason.. or for those who want to discuss more than their friends/family/collegues can tolerate lol.
