The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the week, every six hours. Up is worse. Dashed lines are games.
What happened
The first win finally arrived, 110-102 over Indiana, and one fan was especially delighted it came against the Pacers. It didn't last. A 100-132 loss to Houston was the turning point, sparking grim talk that the club was "sacrificing a season for the Brewers," and a 111-136 rout by Cleveland sealed a 1-5 start. Myles Turner absorbed most of the fury, his lone good quarter of the year, per one fan, coming in that Indiana win. Revenge, it turns out, is a one-night rental.
What fans said
“I’m completely fucking out on Turner. Our front court is getting absolutely *annihilated.*”
