Good luck to the Spurs from Asia

[flipspursfan]

This is my first thread in around 5 years of lurking and I just felt like speaking up with my fellow Spurs fans. It's been a long while since I've truly believed the Spurs can win it all and I think now is the time. Hope the Spurs can get Timmy ring #5 so we can see him go out into the sunset just like the Admiral did.

:lobt2::lobt2::lobt2::lobt2::lobt2:

:flag::flag:

(Also, I've been itching to have basketball discussions with the forum for a long time.)

[ilovethespurs]

Filipino spurs fan here. I'm rooting for our Spurs all the way! I haven't felt this good about our chances at bagging number 5 in a long time. I hope this is our year but tbh I'd like Timmy back next year to try for our first back-to-back. But that's getting too far ahead. For now, go for 5 Spurs! :flag::lobt2::ihit

Hi!! I feel exactly the same way! Though I can't help but think about the possibility that if Timmy gets a ring this year, then he may contemplate going out as Robinson did. But for now, let's wait for him to get that ring first. :lol

Hi! Let's just enjoy this ride. Anythings possible really but as Timmy said if the wheels dont fall off, he'll continue playing. By the looks of it, it doesn't seem like he's done. And with the development of the young Spurs, he'll have all the help he can get for no. 6. I'm being greedy but the only thing better than no. 5 is to get no. 6 the year after. Then he can retire. :king

Oh yes, then again it would be nice to see Tim retire after he gets that elusive repeat championship. Let's hope that happens! :king

I don't have both NBA premium and BTV sadly so I resort to internet streaming for my games. Also, I agree with LA being the mass's favorites, especially with the Kobe hype and his shoes on sale.

I'm from Marikina too! :toast I'm watching game on my iTouch.

I've been Spurs fan since 2002-2003, maybe because of NBA Live 2002 where my brother told me that he was the Season MVP. Kind of bandwagon. :lol Though the first game I've watched was Kings @ Lakers, Game 5 I think the winning shot of Horry. Too bad, I rooted for the Lakers that Playoffs. :depressed Anyway, since I rooted for the Spurs, I'm starting to appreciate the playing style (simple and fundamental, organization, the color (black & white), etc.

yeah i agree, i'm a spaniard but i grew up in the phils and one of my nitpicks is that when ya pass you don't get the ball back so you're pushed to keep the ball. and then that shit goes all around.

[Legacy]

Hello there, to all my fellow flip Spurs fans. I'm half flip and half American with American Citizenship, living right here in SA. I hope I'm cool enough, being only half flip and all. :p: Woo-Hooo! I was seriously wondering where all the flip fans were when I first joined this site. Everyone on the flip side (lol) of my family pretty much loves this sport so much and all play it. Hell, pretty much every flip, half-flip, WTFever, etc; I ever grew up with, knew/know loves basketball. They even tried to make me play when I was growing up, but I wasn't interested, unfortunately. Being tall does NOT = basketball skillz. I kept trying to tell them this, lol. ... Still love to watch it, obviously, and where better to watch it than in "The Land of The Spurs." They are *Gods* in this town. They completely own SA--it's pretty cool. So yeah... I'm pretty happy living here--for now, that is. :D :toast

From bohol living in san antonio,texas since 1995. Go spurs go!!!!

[flipspursfan]

Well I'm glad this thread became a Flip Spurs fan hangout. Like legacy, I have foreign blood as well, the whole of my father's side starting from his father are Spaniards. Legacy, how long have you been a Spur fan?

[bulakenyo]

I've been a Spurs fan since the David Robinson, Dennis Rodman, Sean Elliott days.

But I'm probably one of the earliest Manu Ginobili/Oberto fans from the Philippines.

Since the Argentina world championship success of Argentina in the US.

I moved to San Antonio in 2000 (but have lived in several other places along the way--Hawaii, Italy, Guam, etc), and it's pretty damn hard to ignore The Spurs here. Spurs-Mania is THE REAL DEAL here in SA. This time of year is the best because wherever you go (even at a fancy restaurant--doesn't matter where) they will have tvs in the corner of the rooms with the Spurs game on. Everyone comes out and the city is like one big family. I also met Malik Rose when I was bartending at an Italian Restaurant. :p: They just act like completely normal people. So since about 2001, I suppose? Like I said, it is really, REALLY hard to avoid The Spurs in SA. They are simply *GODS* in this town. They completely own SA. ... But we also own them, too, of course. ;)

Very cool, the many times I've been in the US I've never went to Texas, looking forward to visiting SA in the future.

I'm surprised that almost all (I think) who posted here are Filipino where Philippines is not the only country in Asia.

Wow. :o I became a Spurs fan when I was 12 years old and now I'm 20. Sometimes I'm getting annoyed of those typical "fan" here, almost same age of mine. Most of them are not even updated only when Kobe, Durant, Griffin, etc. did that or there's a blockbuster trade or forming a "team" like the Heat, etc. then that's the time they will call themselves a "fan" of that team. Just irritating and will start to trash talk.

[pawe]

Notorious ang mga pinoy sa pagiging bandwagon fans. Natatandaan ko halos karamihan ng pinoy naging suns fan nung run n gun pa ang style nila. Then naging Heat nung sumali na si james dun.
Walanghiya kayo, pag naging laker fan kayo pag nag retire si Duncan at Manu e magkalimutan na tayong lahat!

Glad to know there are people from all over the Phils- Marikina, Cubao and Bulacan here. Even a half-Pinay from SA. I'm from Commonwealth, QC myself. Been a Spurs fan since TD became a Spur. But I'm crazy about Manu and TP too.

Hey Legacy, I have an aunt and a couple of friends living in SA, all of them Filipinos and die-hard Spurs fanatics. Basketball is the national sport. There was even a book written about how Filipinos are basketball-crazy. It's called "Pacific Rim", written by an American author whose name escapes my memory now.

Mabuhay to all Filipino Spurs fans!!
