Top 5

[AFMadison]

I was reading through another thread that was talking about player fans. I'm interested in knowing who your favorites are. I really don't care who plays well as long as the team wins, but within that core (wins and losses set aside) who do you like to see shine on the court. I will say there are some players on the team that frustrate me more than others, but I'm not the type to bash anyone wearing silver and black.

So, who sits in your top 5 (in order) as your favorites? (Current Roster)

I would say

1. Manu
2. Duncan
3. Boris
4. Kawhi
5. Patty

Some people might find this surprising with how much I stand up for Parker.

[100%duncan]

1. Kawhi
2. Tim
3. Manu
4. Danny
5.Patty/LMA

I put danny and patty in because we need them to get those 3s going.

All time:

1. Duncan
2. Manu
3. Kawhi (might end up at 2 tbh, but no one beats timmy in my heart imho :cry)
4. Parker
5. Danny, maybe, too early to tell

only started liking the spurs with Drob's last season so Im not too biased on him

Hate that comes from the depths of hell: Turnobili/"Porker."

LMA hasn't been here long enough to form an attachment to. He's on the right track. Defends and rebounds well even when his shot isn't falling.

[DJR210]

1. Kawhi
2. Kawhi
3. Kawhi
4. Kawhi
5. Kawhi

[$pursDynasty]

1) MVParker
2) TD
3) Manu
4) The KingSlayer
5) Bobo

HM: LMA glad we got him but hasn't done enough in Silver & Black to rate yet.
The big 3 rate the highest for past accomplishments as well as current ones, but I know that Kiwi is the future (and current best player on the team and superstar in the league) and Bobo's skillset is something that is hard to account for.

[Canyonero]

Manu
Tim
Kawhi
Boris
LMA

[loveforthegame]

Leonard
Duncan
Manu
Diaw
Green

[SpursforSix]

1) Duncan - form all the championships, the leadership, the consistent greatness, the willingness to accept less $ to make it all work
2) Manu - for the competitiveness and style of play
3) Leonard - for his play and willingness to bust his ass to improve his game
4) Parker - for his fearlessness in getting to the rim and the devastating quickness he used to have
5) Diaw - for his style of play

#5 was tough. Could have put Mills in there.

[Kikoluna]

1. Manu
2. Timmy
3. Leonard
4. Patty

[SAGirl]

Can't name just 5!!!!
:madrun
I enjoy things that others don't enjoy watching as much I suppose. Like for example, I really enjoy watching developing players and guys who are new in the team, because it intrigues me what they are doing and whether they are developing nicely or not. They don't necessarily produce a wow factor, but they produce an interesting aspect and when they have a nice play it for sure is completely unexpected. In this regard:

1. Anderson
2. Boban
3. Ray
4. Simmons

Now, in terms of who amazes me the most in this team and really produces the wow factor:

1. Timmy
2. Manu
3. Kawhi
4. Tony
5. Boris (he's been bad as of late though, I'll say Boris 2.0 is nice to watch)

I am less keen on watching shooters, thus while I value immensely the 3 pt shot personally, they don't excite me as much. But in terms of watchability as shooters in the team:
1. Danny (his defensive plays are awesome to watch)
2. Patty (can rain fire and kill your team if you let him, but has a tendency to chuck too much at times)
3. Rasual (too new, so it adds to the intrigue department, and he's been steady, but he's been off shooting)
4. Bonner (my least liked Spur, bc he's limited at this point, but such a lovable high character guy you can't actively dislike him, he's just the least enjoyable to watch).

[FkLA]

1. Kawhi
2. Manu
3. Boris
4. Timmy
5. Green

HM: MVPaddy

I like players that aren't me first guys and that do other things besides try to score. I'm sure LMA will make his way onto the list soon. Prime Manu is my #1 all-time, perfect combination of being on the attack + always making the correct pass.

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

For this year it's:

Duncan
Kawhi
Manu
Parker
Green

Those guys have been around the longest. Green would be ahead of Parker but this year Parker has been good and Green has been ass. I still can't believe how good Timmy is though, he's basically being paid 1/3 of his value. Kawhi is obviously better than him but I'd expected Timmy to make a sharp decline this year, and it hasn't been that bad.

[rasuo214]

Timmy
Kawhi
Manu
Diaw
Parker

Also happens to be my favorite lineup.

HM to Patty and DG for their contributions as well.

[spurraider21]

Duncan
Manu
Kawhi
Danny
LMA

[Neurosis]

1. Tim
2. Manu
3. Kawhi
4. Parker
5. Green

Ranked in terms of how important I see them to the Spurs historically and moving forward.

Tim is just phenomenal. His constant contribution in so many ways makes him by far the greatest Spur ever. Even now he's arguably the best player on the team at almost 40 years old. Dude is just amazing.

Manu has saved us on countless occasions. Was basically unguardable in his prime and even now still contributes.

Kawhi is no doubt the cornerstone of our resurgence, allowing us the 5th and will be the most important piece of the puzzle if we ever want to go further.

Parker was great in his prime and he's done a lot to adapt his game and improve. He's still contributing what he can and while he might not be worth his total contract, that doesn't detract from what he's done or what he continues to do.

Green is the force alongside Leonard that has made us so amazing on D. He's in a slump but he can be the best 3andD guy in the league. Plus he doesn't have the natural talent of a lot of other guys but he's damn persistent and works hard to refine his game as much as possible to still be a contributor.

[itsamanuthree]

Manu
Tim
Kawhi
Diaw
Green

[itsamanuthree]

Granting each player a score for their position one each list, that is, 5pts 1st place, 4pts 2nd, etc., these are so far the accumulated scores reflecting the favortie players of the spurs fans.

A clear big 3

1.Tim 141
2.Manu 126
3.Kawhi 106

Four role players lead by Bobo and his valued court vision

4.Diaw 35
5.Tony 29
6.Green 22
7.Patty 14

Then the newcomers

8.LMA 9
9.Rasual 2
10.West 2

And.... Bonner

11.Bonner 1

[Bambililos]

Parker
Duncan
Diaw
Leonard
Mills

[spursgu]

Duncan
Ginobili
Leonard
Parker
Mills

All time is Duncan, Ginobili, Robinson, Leonard, and Parker.

[afireinside20]

Rasual? Lol common man. Yeah I like his hustle but top 5:lol
Hell yea man, i just like the way he looks comfortable out they're, and he can make shots. I hope we keep him

[OrEmuN]

1. Timmeh - GOAT
2. Manu - he produce amazing teamplay
3. Kawhi - his suffocating defense is something
4. Green - captivating back story of a boy made good. IMO - best 3 & D in lge
5. Diaw - fatass that can ball

[Silver&Black]

Current:

1. Diaw
2. Duncan
3. Manu
4. Kawhi
5. Parker

All-Time:

1. Admiral
2. Duncan
3. Diaw
4. Manu
5. Rifleman (RIP)

:bobo Love me some Bobo.

I would say

1. Manu
2. Duncan
3. Boris
4. Kawhi
5. Patty

Some people might find this surprising with how much I stand up for Parker.

I see two different questions here. Who do I like to see shine?

1. Kyle - I hope he becomes a good rotation player for the Spurs in the post-Tim/Manu era. We need some young guys to come through for us.
2. Tony - Like him or not, when Tony is off, the Spurs really struggle
3. Manu - Got to love his renaissance this season.
4. Danny/Patty - got to have the outside threat to thrive.
5. Simmons - not much court time and not as much hype/promise as Kyle, but I hope he does well for the same reason. Who will be The Spurs TNG?

No, Timmy isn't on that list. He is just a machine. I expect him to shine every time he takes the court!

Top Five favorites?
1. Timmy - How can it be otherwise? Best ever Spur; best ever PF in the NBA.
2. Kawhi - Crazy athleticism; crazy dedication to improving his game AND Sphinx-like personality that suits a Spur! The Future.
3. Manu - Capacity for unexpected brilliance at any minute - still!
4. Tony - Fifth best (currently) Spur of all-time, behind only Timmy, Admiral, Iceman, Manu.
5. Boris - Swiss Army Knife of BB his whole career. Got a job to do? Give it to Boris. Started career as a G will finish as a PF/C.
