[timtonymanu]

I rewatched 07 the other day. IMO, that is closest roster that this 2013 roster replicates. :lol

[100%duncan]

:lmao Jerome James "I don't give them respect."

Where is that scrub now?

[100%duncan]

:lmao Jerome James "I don't give them respect."

Where is that scrub now?

Yeah :lmao gives me laughs every time I rewatch it.

That TD injury scene in game 6 was damn horrifying.

Who trash bag man??????? I remember that bum. He later retracted his statement and said he did not mean it like that lol! We know what you meant at the time you bum! Thing is you were irrelevant.

I remember it live! That will feel like Jello tomorrow I believe POP said?

[T Park]

I remember being at Goombah's pizza with the Thompson Bros, alot of Spurstalkers Kori and LJ, and after Duncan's layup I swear to god there was .5 or something left on the clock. We both said at the same time "Theres too much time" :lol still traumatized from the year before.

[100%duncan]

Damn the Finals that year. Detroit vs Spurs. Past 2 NBA champs.

LOL You should have seen my face at home! I saw .5 and said holy shit from .4 to .5....... I could see it happening against us! How ironic that would have been.


On average .4 or .5 is a laugher but not to us!!!!!!!!!!! Ray Allens shot nearly went in too :wow:wow

[100%duncan]

Everyone would've commited suicide. :lmao

Finals Game 5. Still gives me chills.

[Budkin]

Dude I was thinking the same thing. Is Goombah's still there? Where are the Thompson brothers these days. Always liked them.

[Budkin]

Finals Game 5. Still gives me chills.

That game was epic. Tim missing the putback at the buzzer was agonizing. Thank God Horry bailed our asses out.

[100%duncan]

San Antonio's Parade is on Tuesday! Damn :lol

[barakz21]

Proud to say I got the everything except the '99 one. But I guess it's cool since I never really became a fan until the '01-02 season, and that was by accident.

[100%duncan]

Duncan's game 7 performance was the shiiiiiiiiiiiiit. :tu

[100%duncan]

Proud to say I got the everything except the '99 one. But I guess it's cool since I never really became a fan until the '01-02 season, and that was by accident.

Same became a fan in 02-03 season tho, especially when they knocked off the Lakers. :lol I'm glad I didn't become such a faggot bandwagoner tbh.

[Budkin]

Duncan's game 7 performance was the shiiiiiiiiiiiiit. :tu

Never been more nervous about a game in my life. When they went up 9 in the 3rd I almost threw up.

[100%duncan]

TP: "I told you! There you go! There you go!"

[barakz21]

TBH, I started off as a bandwagon/casual fan of the bulls. But hey, I was a kid. MJ and the Bulls were gods during the 90s. Funny how I came across the spurs. I remember they were playing portland, and since pip was in portland, I was rooting for him. And then TD showed me the light. Became a fan of TD and anything spurs after that.

[100%duncan]

Bruce was the ultimate hype man tbh. :lol

[crc21209]

I actually just saw both the 05' and the 07' dvd's the other day too. Those teams were awesome. Manu dominated in 05' and Tony took his turn in 07'.

[crc21209]

Never been more nervous about a game in my life. When they went up 9 in the 3rd I almost threw up.

The days leading up to Game 7 and the game itself were some of the most nerve wrecking times for me as a Spurs fan ever...:lol

[crc21209]

I rewatched 07 the other day. IMO, that is closest roster that this 2013 roster replicates. :lol

Really? That team was loaded with veterans like Barry, Horry, Bowen, and Finley. This team has more young guns in Green, Splitter, Leonard, and Joseph...

[100%duncan]

Greatest SA team? 05 or 03? tbh.

[Sean Cagney]

Greatest SA team? 05 or 03? tbh.
05 maybe because of Manu in his prime and Tony was better, but 03 Tim was on a different level and that team was so damn fun to watch and deeeeeeeeeep! Parker still a kid then though and Manu a rookie! Jax a youngin too! So talented and so deep but so young! D ROB going out and older but still better than most we had since at C! It is hard to say here! Both for different reasons! 03 team could play any game you threw at them from vets to youngins, you wanted to run we could run! SLOW IT DOWN we could d it up and grind it out! Diverse team. 05 team was just solid though.

Very hard imho. One could make a case that 03 duncan would compensate the emergence of Manu in 05 and TP getting better. But it's not like TD wasn't a beast in 05 too. I think 05 takes it by an inch. Maybe 05 in 7 over 03.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

03 wasnt the best tbh but tim was at his best that year while drob was at the end of the road and tony and manu were no where close to what they became...its either 05 or 07 imo

[100%duncan]

03 wasnt the best tbh but tim was at his best that year while drob was at the end of the road and tony and manu were no where close to what they became...its either 05 or 07 imo

Nah, 03 Tim would destroy anyone on that 07 roster tbh.

03 Tim was the shit tbh.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

03 Tim was the shit tbh.

07 tim would give 03 tim a hard time tbh and manu & tony would destroy the 03 version of themselves...tbh if the spurs went 6 games with nets than the 07 spurs would beat them imho

[Capt Bringdown]

I think '99 was Spursball at it's best, but I do enjoy watching the '05 Horry game every now and then. One of the best playoff performances ever. Should be a statue of Horry outside Duncan's house, or at least in his Dungeons and Dragons nerd room.

[100%duncan]

07 tim would give 03 tim a hard time tbh and manu & tony would destroy the 03 version of themselves...tbh if the spurs went 6 games with nets than the 07 spurs would beat them imho

Good point. But 03 Bowen would lock down on 07 TP. Whereas 07 Bowen would have no one to lock down since the offense was all about Prime Timmy.

[Legacy]

Glad you're reminiscing upon "The Glory Days."

Did we win the 2013 Championship or something, BTW? Just checking... :p:

[Sean Cagney]

03 wasnt the best tbh but tim was at his best that year while drob was at the end of the road and tony and manu were no where close to what they became...its either 05 or 07 imo

07 could not touch 03, sorry.

D ROb was still better than OBERTO! Rose! Better than our backup PF! Jax then! Man he was good that year and clutch. Bowen in 03 was ridiculous on D! Duncan in 03 all world, MVP! His best year. Kerr a vet and Willis! Ginobili off the bench with hair! Parker spry! Claxton a very good backup! That 03 team has an answer for most teams, youth and old, could run or slow it down and beat you! They went a game too long in each series yes but.... When that 03 team got locked and focused they could blow you out! PERIOD.

yea old drob was prob still better than oberto and prime rose is better than past prime horry....but 07 manu and tony were way better than 03 parker manu and jack combined imo...and dont forget the others like finley, barry, elson, bruce and jacque vaughn

[100%duncan]

03 Bruce would shut down 07 Tony. 03 Jax would handle 07 Manu defensively imho. Bench wont matter that much, and again 07 Spurs doesn't have an answer to 03 Tim.

[Sean Cagney]

Bruce was better in 03! Barry I liked yes! Finley had a good run but spotup shooter! I have 03 Jax over him! Elson was near Willis status IMO! Vaughn? NOT NEAR CLAXTON that year as as backup! Not nearly as talented! Kerr was a backup too! 07 a good team yes, but not on our 03 or 05 par IMO! Just my opinion though.

[TampaDude]

Damn the Finals that year. Detroit vs Spurs. Past 2 NBA champs.

Best Finals ever, tbh.

[Spurs and Mavs fan]

It would be neat to see Ginobili win a Finals MVP. That way each of the Big Three would have a Finals MVP. It's extremely improbable for Ginobili in 2013, though.

[carina_gino20]

That Finals Game 5 is still the most nerve-wracking game I've watched. Horry was unbelievable.

[dbreiden83080]

Damn the Finals that year. Detroit vs Spurs. Past 2 NBA champs.

That Spurs team had so much heart and needed every inch of it to get through that game 7..

[dbreiden83080]

Greatest SA team? 05 or 03? tbh.

05 was better than 03 because Manu was a star player at that point.. 99 might be the best one..

[100%duncan]

05 was better than 03 because Manu was a star player at that point.. 99 might be the best one..

I still wasn't old enough to witness 99. What a shame :lol

Though through watching highlights, and the championship highlights of that year that team was really scary. :tu

[superjames1992]

The 2005 NBA Finals were second-to-none. 2005 was my favorite playoff run in general, tbh.

The 2007 Playoffs were kind of meh. The Finals sucked. I mean, sure, I want the Spurs to win, but a sweep in the NBA Finals of Lebron and scrubs wasn't exactly exciting, tbh.

[timtonymanu]

Really? That team was loaded with veterans like Barry, Horry, Bowen, and Finley. This team has more young guns in Green, Splitter, Leonard, and Joseph...

Not accounting for age, but just the roles. It's very slight though.

Splitter in the Oberto role
Leonard in Bowen's spot
Green in Finley's spot = Both shooting guards, both wear #4

[emanueldavidginobili]

Where can you get the championship DVDs?

[McGusto55]

03...best spurs team....

[eric365]

Bad move IMO. You should keep it for the end of the playoff when there is 4 months without spurs basketball

[Keepin' it real]

That Finals Game 5 is still the most nerve-wracking game I've watched. Horry was unbelievable.

I wonder how many other Spurs fans screamed at the top of their lungs in frustration and broke the nearest object(s) when Tim missed the tip-in at the end of regulation.

[DesertSpur50]

Up until the Mavericks Championship all the DVD's had a similar structure to them. They had the same interphase, music and a certain way of approaching the series. Having recentely watched the Miami DVD I can say that it was complete garbage. It was as if they threw it together at the minute. They changed up the entire style of past DVDs, which isn't bad as far as the interphase and how it looked. It was everthing else that was crap. The music choice was horrible, they didn't go into depth on any of the series, the narrator sucked and it was basically a Lebron circle jerk barely even mentioning the other players on the team outside of the occasional three from a role player.

Most importantly, it was not entertaining. There were no spine shivering moments due to how it was paced and narrated, whereas the pace of the Spurs dvds were great for the most part and you could feel the tension. You could say that it is because I'm not a fan of the Heat, however I was able to enjoy the Mavs DVD just fine, and I hate the Mavs.

Ahh got ya. In that case yeah I see what ya mean...

Try Amazon. I saw them on there recently...

I was in 5th grade during the 99 championship run. One of the greatest moments of my childhood tbh. That defense was just amazing to watch. I have the 99 championship VHS, I've never found it on DVD. I've always tried to find someone who can convert VHS to DVD...:lol

[McGusto55]

Manu..mvp...05

[McGusto55]

Where can you get the championship DVDs?

Best buy.

[emanueldavidginobili]

Best buy.

I live in Boston so I doubt they will be there, but I will try Amazon, what do they show on the DVDs? Do they show full games?

[spurraider21]

05 had superstar manu and clutch as every horry. but 03 had the best tim duncan we've seen, and that alone merits consideration. he literally couldn't be stopped. still, i have to give 05 some more credit due to the competition we faced in the finals. still, beating the 3x defending chump lakers was pretty huge. i can't decide, but i'd take either of those teams over 07.

This is what I'm saying when you put those 2 teams in a 7 game series tbh. MVP Duncan will dominate anyone and I think it can compensate for a young manu and tp instead of prime manu and improved TP in 05.
