View Full Version : Jon Barry.... wow
Seriously who the f*** is this guy to call our window of opportunity closed. He was nothing but a scrub who was overshadowed by his drastically more talented brother and father. Respect our franchise and most of all respect Duncan and the rest of this championship ship caliber but aging squad. If I can recall, I remember him loathing on how old and slow the Celtics were, only to make him eat his words. I honestly don't know why he even has a job. He should join a retirement club for the irrelevants or something of that sort. What a bitch.

The Spurs have had a 3-year championship drought before, nothing new. They were better this year down the stretch than they were in 2009 even though they "aged". With another year will come more cohesion and hopefully that much more production from the youth and role players.

At least wait until the roster is set before believing wholeheartedly that the sky is falling. Still a long way to go before we get to that point and moves to be made in-house as well as during Free Agency.

Jon Barry can voice his useless opinion on ESPN, but Brent Barry who's a better basketball player, and analysis than Jon Barry ever wish he could have been is not on television? Jon Barry's always hated The Spurs, so anyone that listens to him should insert a gun into their mouth. :ihit
I think the Spurs have only one more year with this core. After this age and injury will be too hard to overcome. And they have to play their cards right.
I would've said their window was completely closed but after what Boston was able to do this year i dont see why SA can't just gear up for the playoffs. The window is open about an inch but after this year its closed

The window is closed if Spurs don't put the right pieces around this group and the offense, defense and chemistry don't click on a championship level. I think the Spurs have one more run but if the refs call the games as bad as they have these last fews years, the Spurs are done.
Spurs need a youthful bench, we don't need anymore vet, Parker, Duncan, Ginobili and Dyess are enough. We need straight youth and a freakin great small forward with size and some athleticism on the front line next to Duncan. Splitter is cool but I still want more personally but a good small forward could compensate IMO

Actually I disagree with that a lot of luck goes into stealing players in FA and making good trades. Their gm Mitch is a dumbass he has no clue what he's doing he lucked out with the Gasol trade.I can't imagine that guy building a good team like Jerry West did when Magic retired. So many factors play a role into building team into a title team you have to have a number 1 pick the year a Lebron,Shaq,Duncan players is available, 2 you have to make good trades, 3 you have to have cap space. If it was as easy as you say it was then the Knicks would always be great but as you see having stupid mgmt screwed them up for a decade along with bad drafts. Nothing is guaranteed LA has been very lucky the last 20 years starting in '96 when they stole Shaq and then in '08 when they stole Gasol for nothing. Those type of events don't come often I can't see the lakers winning a title for atleast a decade once their run comes to an end with their core.

This guy Jon Barry watched the Spurs urinate on his team (the Rockets) for just about all of the last 13 years (including 22 straight losses). Pure jealousy. His own brother got two rings he will have to look at the rest of his life.
Jon inherited the jackass personality of his dad a lot more than Brent, who comes across as a much nicer person.

Yeah, but that was another era. What was it, ten... eleven years after the Pistons pumped you til you got another one? And then, when Phil left, straight mediocrity.
The thing about Phil is that he can take garbage like Rodman and Artest and actually integrate them, because he's the absolute Alpha of the team. Kobe tried his little power play in 2004 and got punked for his trouble. Phil is the big swinging dick of the platoon. Players don't DARE cause trouble, and if they do a little, he usually chooses to ignore it. Bump up an assistant or hire a lame ass, and you'd better have Artest on the next flight out, or he will rip your team apart.

Your right they can have Shaq part 2 but even that doesn't happen over night. Look at the Lebron free agent war its the biggest contest for mega superstar since the Shaq sweepstakes back in '96. So its literally been 14 years since we have had a contest to steal a superstar FA caliber player that is a game changer. I don't think the Lakers are going to end up into Shaq part 2 situation quickly it takes time and planning to steal an FA like a Shaq or Lebron. They could pull it off but it will be a long time before it happens. The best chance they have at rebuilding quickly is ending up with the number 1 pick the year a Shaq or Duncan caliber players comes out and even that takes luck.

Fakaluva, go rub one out with your Kobe and Phil and Joey Crawford blow-up dolls. Lakers have bought and PAID for their last two titles. How do I know, you ask? BECAUSE THE F#@%^& FAKERS ARE $25+ MILLION OVER THE LUXURY TAX!!!! You can't tell me that Stern has it rigged so that he gets a lump sum of that. Greedy Bastard wants LA to be in the Finals because they pay to maintain his yacht and his perpetually disappointing officiating crew. Any one that says differently is selling something, or IN the Faker Organization <-- if you can call it that. :nope:nope
Phil(lys) is retiring, Kobe's key players Shannon Brown Jordan Farmar are splitsville, no one wants to be Kobe's teammate. Kobe is the Pariah of the NBA.

As to his comments about the championship run being over, you can never say never.
Wasn't that long ago Kobe Bryant looked like he was going to be traded and then the Grizzlies gave away Pau Gasol.
Spurs fans can always hope that one of their former employees will give away a perennial All Star for scraps.
Maybe Sam Presti will trade us Ibaka/Green in return for Hairston

LA got swept by the Spurs before they went on their 3-peat the following year :downspin:
That was before Phil Jackson arrived, so the Lakers did their job and upgraded their organization after the sweep. The year we swept them, they were not championship material.
It remains to be seen if Splitter/Anderson is what will put us over the top. Or if the FO makes some moves.
The window's shut? I mean what are we really talking about here?
The Spurs had a hard time getting their defense together and when it finally came together Parker wasn't playing at full steam/confidence.
The Spurs simply didn't have the pieces needed to win, but it wasn't like they didn't have a chance at winning. You can call the window closed when you aren't making playoffs otherwise there's always a chance.
Off-season isn't even over yet, so you can't say the Spurs door is shut to winning a championship...it's just ignorant and conceited; not that Laker fans care about things like that, they rather enjoy both.

NewJerSpur
06-26-2010, 08:54 PM
I would've liked our chances against the Lakers with the way we ended the season and steam-rolled into and beyond the 1st round of the playoffs. Suns had our number (particularly Frye and Dudley) this time around.....especially with the way we defended them.
I'm not pissed if someone doesn't pick us to win the whole thing, but to keep going with the "window is closed" routine gets tiresome, though I know I probably shouldn't pay it as much mind coming from certain "analysts". If the pieces fit together well like they did at the end of the season and the health of the Big 3 is in tact, how can we be counted out? We beat the #2 seed last years after losing to the same team in 2009 which was a much lower seed the year prior.
