As a lifelong Spurs fan, I never want to see such a pampered, pack-faggot team such as OKC win the title.
I was five years old when Avery made that classic baseline shot to give us our first NBA championship. The next three years, the Lakers got more than fair revenge against the Spurs, beating us every year (except for the year Timmy went down) often with the aid of bad calls, no-calls, etc. due to the Lakers being Stern's beloved moneymakers of the time. There seemed to be no hope in defeating this great evil of Shaq & Kobe.
When the Spurs finally beat the Lakers in 2003 en route to the title, it was like a revelation, Christmas morning, and winning the lottery all at the same time. While the Spurs' previous 1,000 attempts in beating the hated Lakers had failed, the 2003 season was inspired by our upcoming stars as well as our golden veterans in the twilight of their careers, most especially David Robinson. The Admiral retiring on a low note, with only one championship to show for? That just couldn't be, in Tim Duncan's world at least. The 2002-03 Lakers had a start not so very different from the 2012-13 Lakers' start (one of the chief similarities being the maelstrom of injuries) but they were still the Lakers, after all, a 50-win team that had snuck into the 5-seed, defeated the Timberwolves, and appeared poised to contend for a 4th straight championship, which probably would have had me permanantly lose all interest in basketball. But the Spurs, fronted by the best power forward on the globe in his absolute prime year, did it.
And then, there was 2004 -- a terrible moment for Spurs fans, being cheated out of a second straight series victory over the Lakers and likely a second straight trip to the NBA Finals by an NBA-affiliated scorer who is paid to give the breaks, such as an extra few tenths of a second, to the bigger-market teams of the league. With help from the Pistons, the Lakers imploded in the 2004 offseason, and missed the playoffs in 2005 while we won the championship. While the Lakers were a mediocre team in 2006 and 2007, the Spurs won another title in the latter year and seemed to be well on their way again when the Lakers, naturally, are gift-wrapped the Pau Gasol trade for what essentially amounted to a happy meal (the Marc Gasol argument is bad because he wouldn't shine for another 2-3 years). They go on to handily defeat the Spurs in 2008 (the series should have been 4-2 at the very least, if Blowjob Joey hadn't magically swallowed his whistle at a specific time) and win titles in 2009 and 2010, the latter certainly with aid from the referees. The Spurs have generally had the better of the Lakers since then, but have no more titles to show for it.
I was seven years old when Avery made his first shot off a backscreen -- for the Denver Nuggets. And our new prodigy, a young kid from France, made his vaunted debut for the silver and black (actually the silver, black, aqua, pink, and golden tan... the last year of the ditzy Fiesta colors and the Alamodome). Although beating the Lakers was the #1 goal, it seemed -- and proved to be -- impossible at the time.
So after a 20-4 start, the Spurs cruise in an up-and-down season to a decent record, and we take on the Seattle Sonics in the first round -- the last five-game series in the history of the NBA. The Sonics were one of my least-favorite teams of the time, probably third behind the evil Lakers and hardly respectable Jailblazers. It seemed like, during the series, every time I turned on the TV some moron like Vin Baker or even Gary Payton was talking trash about TD or TP, how TP didn't belong in the league with GP, etc. Even after Timmy's dad died, causing him to miss Game 4, the Sonics continued their smack talk; they were typical, tailor-made, classless assholes. Fortunately, we were able to annihilate them in the series winning Game 5, before suffering yet another bitter defeat at the hands of the dreaded Lakers.
2005 is really the year where I permanently became a lifelong hater of this franchise. They wouldn't stop gloating after starting off the season like 13-1 and beating us twice early on in the regular season. I remember going to Fatso's and the officials there asking my parents to leave because I was throwing a bit of a temper tantrum when the Spurs were down at home by like 21 in the first half to the Sonics (I was 10 years old). Not only were their big guys a bunch of walnut-brained turds, but Ray Allen was such a сunthole that season. In the playoffs, one of the rock brains, Jerome James, admitted that they had no respect for the two-time champion Spurs or Tim Duncan after tying the series at 2-2. And Ray Allen couldn't stop his mindless whining about Bruce Bowen, even though he only got several million bogus calls going his way in that series. The Spurs would push the upstart Sonics' feces in, fortunately, with an emotional Game 6 win. And then there were the Sonics fans. Midway through the 4th, Timmy landed on his right ankle, and was down for a couple minutes. All 19,000+ fans in the overstuffed dilapidated barn known as the Key Arena stood and cheered in unison in one of the most unprecedenced classless events in the history of sports. And then when Timmy finally got up and walked off on his own power, each and every one of those fans booed louder than when Lebron returned to Cleveland as a member of the Miami Heat. But Timmy would calmly sink the game winning running layup, just a week after missing a potential series-clinching fallaway in Game 3... and the Spurs won the championship. The Sonics were nowhere to be seen in the playoff picture from 2006 to 2008, fortunately.
In 2008, David Stern promoted Clay Bennett's decision to relocate the franchise to Oklahoma City, moving the team from a spoiled hippie city to an epicenter town for hickdom. Although this was a bit of karma to the fans for the booing incident of Tim Duncan, the Sonics fans probably didn't deserve to lose their team. And Oklahoma didn't deserve a team based on their fostership of the Hornets after Katrina. David Stern, being the jew he is, augments the reputation of the controversial relocation by ensuring that they receive high picks in 2008 and 2009 (Westbrook and Harden) and that every time one of the stars is breathed on that his cronies call it a foul. Stern is a Jew, after all, and Jews know how to make money and gain advantages via deceitful methods -- you think the Ottoman Sultan, Stalin, or Hitler did their deeds for no reason? I think not.
The Oklahoma Thunder have now come to be Stern's Darlings of the League, with even the Lakers now taking a back seat mainly due to the aging of their heavy artillery. How could anyone root for them? They're a fraud. They shouldn't exist. Their only "fans" are inbred fucks who shoot meth. To me, this is the new great evil in the NBA -- making the Lakers look like ponies in this day and age. Their "superstar" is a foul-mongering, quivering pink vagina pussyсunt, and their other players are extremely annoying.
If the WCF came down to the L.A. Lakers against Oklahoma, it would naturally be a tough call, my most two hated teams of all time -- but I'd have to ally myself with the Purple & Gold for the second time in my life; the first being in last year's semifinal series. Yes, that means I'd root for Kobe's shots to go in, as much as I despise the rapist. I'd root for either team to lose against Miami, of course, as much as I don't care for them. I'd much rather have a team like the Knicks or Clippers win it all if it can't be the Spurs this season. Even the Grizzlies would be fine in this situation.
GO SPURS GO!! :flag:
