The Spurs selected Josh Primo with the 12th pick in the draft, far ahead of where he was projected to be nabbed, and the reaction to the pick revealed something about the current state of the franchise: the fans no longer trust the front office.
The overreaction to the Primo pick was not one of just confusion by those who had consumed mock drafts for weeks, but one of almost contempt. It was seen, both on Twitter and the comment sections, as an egregious mistake, almost a betrayal. In the days since, fans have been talking themselves into the pick, as it always happens, but that initial reaction remains telling.
