Now, with the rug pulled, the turnover seems jarring, in hindsight. I have always been focused on continuity as a means for a team building chemistry, but never before really understood the effect it has on my experience as a fan. It felt like rooting for Luka was the central preoccupation for us all, and now it's tough for me to put my finger on just what the team's identity is. Without understanding that, it's tough for me to know if I even like the team.
This will probably improve with time, however.
It can only improve with time if they stop churning the roster. Another big move this offseason and it will be another reset. I have had this experience as a fan. College basketball used to be a lot more fun before the days of one and done. Now it seems like a completely different team every season. It makes it much harder to get invested as a fan.
