Help finding and old player from the spurs

[Frenzy]

ok i don't have much info on the guy.... in fact i don't have any haha. All i know is he was young,he played for a year or two and then got hurt and i think never played again. He seemed to have a promising future. He played like in the last few years i think not part of any of the spurs championships.

any takers? no don't push me for anymore info... i have none.


now answer por favor :wakeup

EDIT: Never mind ... it's Derek Anderson.

Click on "San Antonio Spurs'" under the "Team" column for any year to bring up a page that includes every player who even played a single game that season.

[FromWayDowntown]

The guy who comes to my mind is Charles "Spider" Smith, who had several big scoring games in 2001-02, got hurt during the 2002 playoffs, got shipped out to Portland as part of the deal that sent Antonio Daniels to Portland and brought Steve Kerr back to SA, and ended up playing in only about 25 more NBA games.

[Libri]

Alex Garcia? 2003-04 season

[bringbackmario]

I liked Alex Garcia, i thought i read on here he was invited to summer league with the team

[djohn14]

Devin Brown got a ring, didnt he?

[Mel_13]

devin brown got a ring, didnt he?

2005

[gospursgojas]

Alex Garcia, Charles Smith (the 2nd one), Derrick Dial?

[jag]

At least throw out a position...or a some kind of descriptive. Was he white or black? Tall or short?

oh well...this is my guess:

Cory Alexander

Jarren "The Eliminator" Jackson?

[rayray2k8]

All these men are equally useless..

[jaffies]

Samaki Walker never had a promising future.

[ploto]

I was thinking maybe Alex Garcia- he got hurt bad during the pre-season and played only a game or two for SA and then a season he was on NO. But he did keep playing, only not in the NBA and also for the National Team for Brazil.

Like Charles Smith- he went on to play in Europe, just not in the NBA.

Do you mean this person was so hurt he never played basketball again anywhere?

Spiderman's immediately who I thought of too. He had one game in 02 where he dropped 21 on Jordan and hounded him into a horrible shooting night on national TV.

I think we have a winner.
The biggest piece of shit to walk on god's green earth.

[dbestpro]

My thoughts drifted back in time to Walter Berry and JR Reid. This lead me to another question.

If you could grab one big man in the Spurs past to play along side Duncan who would you choose? Scratch the obvious Robinson, Gilmore and Cummings. Other than those three, who would you choose?

[Frenzy]

i wish i could give you more details... i would know if i saw him.... i just remember in one game and in one play he went up to dunk got fouled hard... and layed on the floor a while and the announcers saying this is horrible for such an up and coming player. oh he was not a big guy almost like TP size... lots of energy some tats...black.

from what i saw posted not :

Cory Alexander
Jarren "The Eliminator" Jackson?
ron mercer?
shane heal
not c smith.... i'll look at the rest in a bit..

[dbestpro]

Willie Anderson.

I'll never forget when Derek Anderson was slammed by Juwan Howard in that Dallas game. He was going up for a dunk, and was badly hurt. He did come back and play, and then left on poor terms to play elsewhere, so that part doesn't fit.

About how long ago?

Jeez... Black with tatoos could mean everyone but bonner

[Frenzy]

derek anderson

thanks to all... but Udokafan05 got it....it was

derek anderson

now before all of you/some say "oh he was not hurt... oh he was not a great up coming player or he was not this not that....." i gave what i could so there. :wakeup



on a side not look what i found:

12. "I'm a (expletive) idiot. I'm a (expletive) idiot. I'm a (expletive) idiot."
To Tim Duncan. Deep down, you know Duncan is kicking himself for staying in San Antonio for three more years. It's not like David Robinson is going to do better against Shaq next season. And it's not like the Derek Anderson-Steve Smith exchange will help the team's chances of defending Kobe Bryant next season. Orlando must be look pretttttttttty good right about now...."

[gospursgojas]

Melvin Sanders, Alex scales, Darrius Washignton all I could think of in the recent/Tim Duncan era...

Didn't notice the mystery was sloved already... DA isn't that obscure I was going for way forgotten spurs

[Biggems]

If you could grab one big man in the Spurs past to play along side Duncan who would you choose? Scratch the obvious Robinson, Gilmore and Cummings. Other than those three, who would you choose?

1. Larry Kenon
2. Antione Carr
3. Dennis Rodman

[gospursgojas]

Dennis Rodman most def....

Larry Kenon, and I would take him over all but David from our big men.

[elbamba]

Lloyd Daniels?

[Kori Ellis]

What a weird thread. I would never have guessed you were talking about Derek Anderson with "never played again." The guy played 6 or 7 years in the league after playing with the Spurs.

[Taking it to the Hole]

Didn't the Spurs draft some guy named Chris Carawell or something too one year? Whatever happened to that guy?

[Frenzy]

i edited the 1st post to help people out in case they didn't see it. :downspin:

Sounds like Derek Anderson. I remember he took a nasty fall(hard foul) in the playoffs . Can't remember what year. 2000, 2001? He left for Portland after that.

i remember being at that game it was game 1 against dallas in 2001 i think thats what started the whole spurs and mavs rivalry i don't know how mcuha difference DA would of mad in the lakers series but he was never the same again..i remeber when he was getting introduced when the blazers signed him there was a firealarm going off :lol

[Twisted_Dawg]

.......And the winner is:

Derrick Dial

I was @ that game too, a row full of mavs fans were sitting right behind me and they cheered like crazy when howard layed him out. They were assholes back then also.

[Ditty]

yah that was good series even if we won easily

but yah there were alot of mavs fans at that game there was only 3 in our section though they had some 3 white dudes whith big ass cowboy hats they ended up getting booed out and got those pink pom poms thrown at them after the game I think spurs fans were always the assholes :lol

we got our revenge on national tv before game 4 there was a crowd of spurs fans outside reunion arena with brooms while one of the guys were giving a interview :lol but we failed to sweep the mavs that game though

[ajballer4]

yeah DA played for the bobcats for a little while. He also always seems to be rated strangely well in 2K and Live

[SnakeBoy]

i don't know how mcuha difference DA would of mad in the lakers series but he was never the same again

I've always thought he would have made a difference. Think he was the 2nd highest scorer that year behind TD. The injury wasn't why he wasn't the same though. He was bustin his ass that year to get a fat contract. Once he got it with Portland he got lazy again. Once a clipper always a clipper.

Derek Anderson is an NBA champion with Miami!....:rollin

Wow had it not been for derek andersons injury that year (separated shoulder) the spurs could have had a better chance in the 2001 confernce finals. We would have cruised against the 76ers. How about this '99, '01, '03, '05, '07.......daym!

Yeah he did a good job keeping Wade's seat warm for him.

[buttsR4rebounding]

Jarren "The Eliminator" Jackson?

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/basketball/nba/news/2000/01/10/jazz_spurs_ap/lg_jackson_ap_01.jpg

This guy was a real loser. After he got his big contract I remember seeing him working out a Full Life Fitness Center with a Spurs assistant. He was on the machine and the assistant told him to do 3 sets of 20. The assistant then went to work w/ another player. Jackson did like 15 reps total and when the assistant came back he told him he did 4 sets of 20. Doggin' it all the way.
