What... no Antonio McDyess, Danny Ferry, Kevin Willis, or Tony Massenburg?
That's still outrageous, given his decline so far this season. No offense.
Don't get why you have Nazr Mohammed last either. Legit 7 footer, can protect rim, superior defensive player in general including rebounding, can score around the basket. All the things Pop generally dislikes nowadays.
Kevin Willis was a solid back-up. I never considered Ferry a big. He was a clutch Bonner that actually was good. Massenburg, I feel, was great in the 1999 run...as was Kersey.
DRob wasn't on the OP's list. He is an automatic.
Massenburg didn't come on the scene until 2000, one year after. Maybe you're thinking of chucky brown?
Kersey was great though, as was Jaren Jackson.
He had DRob on there when he first posted, but only as the 2003 version. Which I'd still take over anyone else with the possible exception of Tiago (and only if I was picking for one year and no considerations of future).
Negative. Massenburg came after the 2003 le. Pretty sure he was on the 2005 team, but didn't contribute much to that run.
lol yep
I looked it up and Massenburg was here 2004-05, I could have sworn Massenburg was here in 1999.
Kersey was here 1998-2000
Robert Horry
Tiago Splitter
Fab Oberto 2007 version only
Nazr Mohamed
Malik Rose* stopping Shaq was priceless
Dejuan Blair knees might be going
Rasho Nesterovic
Kurt Thomas
Francisco Elson
YMCA rec league guy
T_Park and Chump
Flo the progressive insurance girl
Matt Bonner
* all of these with the exception of Malik Rose played/were-are misused during the Moron Pop era 2006 - infinity and beyond. So that needs to be factored into their performance rating.
Rasho
Fab...smart player
Splitter...smart like Fab, but more athletic
Horry......he was a clutch shooter (obviously)
Nazr
Elson
Malik
Thomas
Blair
Bonner isn't even a good highway cone.
Robert Horry
Malik Rose
Nazr Mohamed
Fab Oberto
Rasho Nesterovic
Tiago Splitter
Dejuan Blair
Francisco Elson
Kurt Thomas
Matt Bonner

I think the ones that had a critical role winning a ring should top the list, tbh...
I do think Tiago is probably going to end up being a better player than Oberto (probably already is) or Nazr.

Wow, I'm the only one who likes Thomas? He was pretty good for the team against Shaq in that Phoenix series. They would have seriously lost that matchup had they not made the trade and had Fab guarding Shaq.
Mohammed is probably a little too high if you consider his entire body of Spurs work, as he was not awful only in that stretch of the 05 season after Rasho got hurt. He was pretty good in that 05 series with the Suns though, and I remember him having a pretty good series against Seattle too. Too bad he reverted to his pre-Rasho-injury form in the 06 season though.
I liked Thomas alot, I just thought he never got comfortable with his role on the team since it seemed he was always fighting Bonner and Finley for minutes at power forward and was usually the odd man out in that love triangle.
