I can already see where this thread is headed and it won't take long for simple to show up and officially get it there.

Leave the Lakers and the rapist out of this. Of course their run has been more dominant, but that doesn't take away from the improbable glory that will forever belong to the little stinkhole that is San Antonio.

The Spurs will have more trophies than the vast majority of the league well after most of us are dead and gone. And they got em in 8 years time, with some of the classiest players to have ever played the game.

It figures you would bring up kobe and his supposed rape without even mentioning parker and him cheating with another players wife. Real class .

Nice to be able to come onto a thread like this and see the same usual suspects ****ting all over the thread. IF02, Danny and Simplebay. Good job, guys.

does the time machine erase losing to a team that has NEVER won even one playoff game until now?

nice to see yet another spurs circle jerk thread. i said something positive about the spurs, which is more than you've ever done about other teams Soupy.

i told you the spurs would suck just as hard as you. and now you and they are both proving me right. thanks

I really don't care what spurs fans say about me as you guys deserve all the crap we can give you.

my bad, I saw a thread where a bunch of "die-hard" spurs fans bailed out on this season and are discussing the offseason.

As a Rockets fan I tip my hat to the Spurs. They've won the right way.... teamwork and a great coach. Assuming they do lose, I'd be ok with Duncan retiring. He probably won't win another title, and i don't think that its worth coming back just to win a 1st round series.

They remind me of the Tom Landry Cowboys or the Tomjanovich Rockets - winners who showed some class along the way.

It's pretty much started to sink it that the Duncan era is coming to an end.

It's been the best years I've had watching any sport, quite honestly. Too young for the Cowboys' dynasty, and even though I worshiped Jordan and rooted for the Bulls of the 90's, it's different when it's "your team".

I'll remember these championships for the rest of my life, 05 and 07 especially. Will never forget those get togethers with my high school buddies for those playoff games, or the heartbreak of the 06 Mavs series, or joyriding in my friend's Escalade celebrating after closing out the Pistons in 05.

Hopefully we can have another good run in the future. Probably nothing like this past decade, but just a couple championships will do :P


















That said,

THIS SERIES IS NOT OVER. I STILL BELIEVE!

I don't know. Maybe Memphis will give us Marc Gasol for an enchilada plate and a case of Julio's salsa...

Bunch of the usual pathetic goons showing up on this thread, especially clowns like Muy who have been absent from this board for a year. So sad.

As for the moronic Mavs fan that mentioned time machine. Hell yeah we have time machine. I got to see the team I've watching for 25 years since I was 5 years old go on 4 championship runs. That is pretty awesome, and something you dork Mav fans will never be able to witness. Hell, most of you would give your left testicle to see the Mavs win 1 championship, much less 4. But hey I guess you goobers get to play the "look at us, we got further than the Spurs!" card. Embarrassing.

as a mavs fan, I have a ton of respect for TD. great player, great human, class act (even if I did take a shot at him from time to time for always having his palms facing up). He was great for SAS and great for the game. Fundamentally sound big men like don't come along too often, and his game was fun to watch. He played with a lot of intensity and a lot of heart, and he made everyone around him play better and harder.

that being said, pretty much every other player for the Spurs this decade is garbage

I tend to think the Spurs were 2 plays away from winning 6 titles.

Anyway, they didn't, and 4 is a hell of a lot more than most.

Always enjoyed the Spurs as an organization.

Like whom? I hope you mean this decade as in 2010 and 2011, because David Robinson was one of the classiest players to ever play the game. Hilarious that you think their players are garbage when 90% of them give back to the community and other organizations in some way.

Spoken like a tsip in the midst of a losing season. Congratulations on your time machine. I'm just an Aggie from Dallas. All I have is my Cowboys VHS tapes

Your quote about time machine was spoken like a butthurt fool because you know the Mavs will never have anywhere near the success that the Spurs did. That's ok though, I don't really blame you. I mean you did get to the Finals one time, which was cool I guess.

This thread could get mighty interesting on the off chance the Spurs come back and win the series.

I meant 2000-2010. I thought DRob retired ~2000, so I didn't include him. He was actually my favorite non-Mavs player growing up in the 90s (but that's probably not saying much considering the state of the Mavs back then)

upon further inspection, seems as if DRob retired in 2003. Later than I thought, as I associated him more with the 1990s.

But yeah, I meant the players like Manu and TP and Bowen. Those guys are garbage and dont deserve to be associated with guys like DR and TD. I really have no opinion on these guys outside of basketball. I'm sure they're all wonderful in the community. Everybody is.

This whole series has reminded me of the Mavs/Jazz series from 2001. That being said, I'm no Spurs fan but I will not call them dead until I see them dead.

blue parachute for you sir. no one could say anything about robinson on or off the court. off the court doesn't really matter though. they're basketball players. not our mentors.

That's great I know the cowboys have a huge national following. I met a dude in New Jersey who was a hard core Cowboys fan dating back to the 70s.

And it shouldn't surprise anyone if the spurs win this series. Game 7 at home, an opponent with no stars and no experience, the pride of a dynasty etc

i thought this thread was about the end of an era. not the end of a series.

the spurs have a slim chance to pull out the series.

as i've been saying for years, they have no chance of winning a championship. this year, or anything past 2008. hence, end of an era. only now are their fans on this board beginning to see it.
