People only got pissed about the benching because it sucks for us, as fans.
Imagine shelling out $100-200+ to sit lower bowl at any venue for any team of your choice, and have either the visiting or home team sit their star playerS. Multiple star players, not just one.
Diminishes the product for us as fans and makes you wonder why the fukk you're paying ridiculously inflated prices if you're going to see some undrafted 3rd string scrub play 20+ mins.
If you think that has anything to do with the San Antonio Spurs, you need a CAT scan.
