Build your best Spurs team

[SteelerNation]

Here would be mine:

PG-Parker/Johnson
SG-Gervin/Ginobili
SF:Elliott/Bowen
PF: Duncan/Rodman
C:Robinson/Gilmore

There are a lot of great players in Spurs history and its hard to break it down to just a few. Its hard to leave guys like Willie Anderson, Alvin Robertson, Johnny Moore, and the likes off the team, but this would be my selection as the All Time Spurs best team.

Pretty good list, but I'd swap out Avery for Johnny Moore, Bowen for Mike Mitchell and Rodman for Larry Kenon.

Silas was definitely the 2nd best point guard in Spurs history. Mitchell had a stretch where he was awesome...same w/ Kenon. Rich Jones was a 3 time ABA all star (and my neighbor, so I have to give him some love)

12-man rotation, this line-up is pretty common sense. Look at the guys not on the list. We are very blessed to have had such a remarkable history.

This team would go 82-0 ;-)

How better was elliott than bowen?

Elliott was not as good, defensively, as Bowen, but he wasn't exactly a slouch either. Offensively, Elliott is far superior to Bowen. You know when Bruce has a shot on the wing and a defender rushes him, so he drives to the basket for a missed layup? Sean actually made those shots and sometimes dunked them.
Plus, he helped us win a championship on two bum knees and one good kidney.

[mookie2001]

wow thats a good looking team right there!

I'm calling you crazy. :lol Kidding aside, Bowen is definitely someone I would want on my team, because he is/was a phenomenal defender. But Elliott's overall game, especially his offensive skills, earn him the starting job IMO. Although Sean's defense was not on par with Bowen's, I always thought his defensive skills were never given enough credit.

[dbestpro]

Allot of Spurs fans have no idea how good Larry kenon really was. Also, Michael Jordan said that Alvin Robertson was one of the most difficult players for him to play against.
It is hard to tell how good Silas would have been had he not gotten hurt. The same could be said for Johnny Moore.

[BlackBellamy]

No one would take a 35 year old Dominique Wilkins on their bench?

I am being serious here, you wouldn't want an NBA legend (admittedly in the twilight of his career) that provided 18/7 for this club in the year that he was here on your bench (even though that year was painful at best)?

It kills me not to put Bowen on this team, but I figure if I have a healthy Duncan and Robinson in the post, I'm not as worried about penetration.

If I can have a 12-man rotation, I'm adding Bowen and TC.

[ambchang]

I'd put Rod Strickland on the team before I put in that crazy, tattooed, hair-dying, cross-dressing, Horry-leaving, show-boating, childish lunatic out on the court representing the Spurs.

[fyatuk]

Pretty good list, but I'd swap out Avery for Johnny Moore, Bowen for Mike Mitchell and Rodman for Larry Kenon.

You need to put a minimum number of seasons with the Spurs into the equasion or you wind up with Dominique Wilkins, Rod Strickland, Rodman etc. deserving a place strictly in terms of talent exhibited during their career elsewhere.

[mookie2001]

well naturally if you got

91 kevin willis
88 chuck person
clippers terry cummings
2000 finley
96 glenn robinson
98 NVE
96 stoudamire
etc...
we'd average like 200 pts a game

[DaBears]

Wow you are not only crazy but completely out of your mind!!


I'd agree with your self assessment. you must be out of your mind bananas. If you would select Bowen ahead of the the Ninja.

Averages with Spurs

Dominique Wilkins - 18pts, 6rebs
Rod Strickland - 13pts, 8ast, 4rebs
Dennis Rodman - 6pts, 17rebs

I picked Robertson as my 3rd PG, cause he could be an effective ball handler and passer. I also like his defense and scoring better than Avery, Moore, and that no look pass Putz. Plus, by putting Robertson at PG, it allows me to put Willie Anderson on the team.

My only other issue was the 3rd Center. I didn't want Paultz. I had Rasho, Perdue, and Carr in mind. I picked Rasho cause he was one of my favorites when he was a Spur.


How about this lineup for lockdown defense......Robertson, Bowen, Elliott, Duncan, and Robinson

Let's go small.......Duncan, Mitchell, Gervin, Manu, Silas

I love my team.

You put Rasho on your all-time Spurs team? bwahahahahaha

[Rynospursfan]

I think Elliott is a better player than Bowen was no doubt. But I would probably Start Bowen ahead of Elliott. Just as Manu comes off the bench even though he is better than Finley or Mason. Bruce is not as effective unless he is going against perimeter starters or stars. Plus you would have plenty of offense on the floor with Parker, Gervin, Timmy and Dave.

[toosmallshoes]

You're all forgetting about Moses Malone who played his last season here in 1994. I think it's the most fun to make a timeless Spurs roster out of every player who has ever played in a Spurs jersey... but in their prime. Those teams are Playstation Beasts!

[toosmallshoes]

And Kevin Willis was no slouch in his prime.

[Rynospursfan]

I think it is silly to add a prime Moses or a prime Nique. They were on the down side when they played in SA. Should Gervin be on a all time Bulls team?

Dont need a scoring point gaurd with this group. U need someone who can set up team and give out Assists. You all Need to Read up on Captain Late. Almost through in Strickland for Assits, but under pressure, he sucks.

ICE and Manu to me the 2 best SG ever for the spurs with people like Alvin a step beind.

SF- Come on People. Mitchell best SF ever for Spurs. Look at his numbers. he just did it so quietly. Sean was the next most productive on both ends of floor after M itchel. Bowen still just one side of the ball.

PF- Duncan to easy and why you all keep putting Kenon and rodman over Cummings is beyond me.
