Shameless analyst tries to dunk on Air Alamo, gets ratioed by Spurs fans

If you’re not used to the San Antonio Spurs having a spot in the national TV spotlight, you might have to adapt quickly. With Tuesday’s massive, franchise-altering win of the Victor Wembanyama sweepstakes, the Alamo City’s forgotten basketball team will be a main attraction for the league for the foreseeable future.

Unfortunately, not all attention is going to be positive, especially when there are some TV personalities like Jason McIntyre.

It’s not worth diving fully into a second time (believe me), but we recently discussed how the co-host of “The Herd” on FS1 embarrassed himself when trying to pretend he knew anything about San Antonio.

“You think they want to spend their summers at the River Walk?” McIntyre asked incredulously, forgetting that NBA players don’t tend to stay home all summer.

“What’s wrong with the River Walk?” asked Colin Cowherd. “I’ve never been. I’ve never been to San Antonio,” responded McIntyre.

While that was already bad enough, he continued on by saying the Spurs will be unwatchable outside of Wembanyama and predicting they’ll increase their win total by just three.

Jason McIntyre doubles down on insulting Spurs, gets roasted again

It seems pretty obvious why San Antonio residents would take offense to someone insulting their city without ever having visited. Don’t tell that to Jason, though, who doubled down on Thursday, completely missing the boat in every way.

Spurs fans angry at me because

a) LaMarcus Aldridge is the only FA to pick the Spurs
b) Outside of Wembanyama, they ARE unwatchable (i have written how i like Sochan)

I hope the Spurs land Van Vleet or CP3, i want to see Wemby succeed and in the playoffs https://t.co/q24I0JSF3r

It’s safe to say he didn’t get the responses he was looking for.

Nah bro. Spurs fans are mad at you because you insulted the city then admitted you’ve never been there. You’ve insulted the roster and after your revelation about the city, we find it hard to believe you’ve watched any Spurs games so how do you know what the roster has?

Unwatchable is an extremely incorrect and disrespectful term. Devin Vassell is a blossoming young scorer who makes shooting the ball look like an art form, Keldon Johnson brings energy and bruiser type scoring that gets everyone hyped, and Sochan is, well, Sochan. Casual.

I don't think you actually understand why Spurs fans are upset with you. Trash talking about their city while being completely ignorant and never actually visiting is why they're upset.

But go on with your ignorance.

To make it even sadder than his like-to-comment ratio, McIntyre then went on a blocking spree, even when the replies weren’t insulting him.

Next. 13 Spurs free agent targets with ties to Popovich. dark

Despite his huge following of over 87,000, there won’t be any coming back from the ratio. Some people are gluttons for punishment, I guess.
