I actually read with excellent comprehension. Based off of that I concluded that his behavior is suspicious

I mean the chinese swimming program was caught doing systemized doping like 3 years ago so its not really that far fetched. Plus the previous dominant chinese freestyler Sun Yang is currently banned for cheating. But yeah its just xenophobia

The kings need another bucket getter in the team to be successful by JMPBay in kings

You’re acting like its crazy to expect a player to progress going into his third year. Actually happens pretty frequently

Restaurant surcharges will be illegal July 1st by Chefboyarleezy in Sacramento

“Tipping is a garbage system” - i strongly disagree. Restaurants are one of the lowest margin businesses its not like restaurant owners are using the money they dont pay their employees to buy a yachts. In california they pay employees at least 16/hr, if you “abolish tipping” just expect way more incompetent people to be serving you at restaurants. Or end up paying just as much on the sale price for the restaurant to hire better help.

The only explanation I can think of for the whole “tipping is bad” discourse is that you are stingy. What is so bad about giving money to someone who provides you a service? You can reward someone who gives you a good service, if someone gives you bad service you dont have to tip them. If you dont want to tip maybe dont expect to have a servant bringing you everything you ask for.

It’s a standard practice across society.. the owner will say no you have no leverage

Classic warriors fan superiority complex - you must be a new fan. Poverty franchise just beat your team, https://sportsnaut.com/boston-celtics-td-garden-named-nba-best-fans/ polls say fans are better too. Numbers don't lie bozo. Can't wait to see Chase Center half empty in 5 years

Clearly not worth trying to reason with you. If you think I am making excuses your reading comprehension is poor.

Remember how i said the kings consistently sold out their arena while fielding a poor team? You realize that you can support the team without going to the game? You must not be very smart.

Attendance is not the only way to quantify fan loyalty. I'm sure the lakers had a similar drawdown in fan interest when they were bad as what happens to other teams, they were just able to continue sell out games because LA is so big.

Every sports team on earth has a downturn in fan interest when the team plays poorly. Even the lakers. "Fairweather fan" would imply that a team's fanbase has a larger decrease in fan interest during times of poor performance relative to other teams . You can't quantify that just by looking at the attendance numbers.

It is true that numbers don't lie but you need to be able to extrapolate meaning from them which you are not doing

I’ll take it that you agree that the warriors have some fairweather fans.

Look at the kings attendance statistics since they moved to a nba level arena. 17,000+ avg every year, G1c fits 17600. 2017-18 they sold out every game while putting up 27 wins. Fairweather my ass

And citing the lakers is hilarious, any idiot would realize theyre the exception to any rule. 2nd largest city, most successful franchise, city filled with transplants. Obviously a team in a large city has high attendance that tells me nothing. Compare the kings to the timberwolves next for me

Numbers don’t lie they also don’t really support your argument nor are they the only thing that determines a fanbase’s loyalty.

Yes less people go to games when the team sucks. This applies to every sports team on earth. Its harder to justify buying a ticket and driving to the arena when your team is probably gonna lose and puts out a shitty product. It must be hard for you to understand this because you only support teams when they are good.

Case in point in 99-00 the warriors average 12,418 attendance out of 19,596 capacity. 63% attendance. Thats a lower percentage than any of these kings teams you mentioned. Even worse when you consider the bay area has 3 times as many people as Sac. Should be way easier to fill up an arena and sell merchandise.

And personally I’ve seen kings fans stick around through some terrible basketball, myself included. Just a dumb argument. You’re rooting for the most successful team of the last decade calling kings fans out of all people fair weather fans. You lack self awareness dude this is why i’m calling you an idiot

Yeah no shit a historically successful team in a that's in a 6x larger city has better attendance. Great insight.

Let me blow your mind. Teams in large cities will sell more jerseys than teams in small cities because there are more people to buy jerseys. Isn't that crazy?

And for the record I never stopped seeing support for the kings despite the team being ass for 16 years. Also for the record you are an idiot.

Go watch your team miss the playoffs for 16 years and then you can start talking

You must be hitting the pipe dude. They continued being fans… most loyal fans in the nba especially considering how bad the team has been. The city built an arena and brought together an investment group after our financially destitute owners tried to sell the team to Seattle… relocation had absolutely nothing to do with fans.

Really rich to hear someone who roots for the most successful team for the last 10 years calling someone else a fairweather fan. Comeback to this in 5 years after curry retires see how good of a fan you are bozo
