Back in October, I wrote an unpublished poem that described the reason for the four-game winning and subsequent four-game losing streaks that started this season. “The Spurs Freaky Friday” drew parallels between our loss to the Orlando Magic, which began the losing streak, and the prank that Pop played on Shaquille O’Neal in 2008, which—obviously—caused him to curse us to mediocrity in 2017. This poem became the catalyst for finally making a puppet show about the Spurs, an idea that had long been simmering beneath the humor pieces that I’ve been writing for PtR for almost two years.
Go Spurs Go ... to Bed
