Spurs will be holding their training camp in St thomas Starting Oct 4th. They will have about 2-3 scrimages open to the public. My boy down at UVI told me he's gonna reserve a spot for me. I'll let you guys know how it went down

[romsey31]

Duncan is a real class act. This guy is paying for any Cruzan who wants to come over to St Thomas to watch this scrimmages.

[romsey31]

^ How about how he looks?

I think what my friend was telling me was that the VI national team asked to play the Spurs in a scrimmage. I think the Spurs management politely declined the offer in fear of major injuries, I'm not sure how true that is seeing that it came from "word of mouth"

Bummer! That probably would've been more fun for the locals to watch.

[NZHayden]

[gospursgojas]

I would love to watch a game where we can see as much coaching going on as game... I dont think its funny, it quite cool :smokin

Wow you're in luck, I live Anguilla-. Ill get back to you on the tickets,.

[picnroll]

How does a guy who lives in Anguilla become a Pacers fan?

[romsey31]

Cause Reggie's the greatest......how come you didnt ask how does some one who lives in St Maarten (30 minutes by boat from Anguilla) become a Spurs fan :P

I've always liked Reggie, I met Al harrington a few years back, and I met J O this summer, coolest cat ever.

[picnroll]

I just figured it was the sun.

Any self respecting Caribeaner (is there such a word?) should be a TD fan I thought.

Really now? Fan of Duncan yea....but not his entire team. There's about 3 NBA players that are from the Caribbean. Duncan, Raja and some other guy. I like Duncan but I prefer J O

[duncan2k5]

well there are more romsay. there is timmy...raja...delembert...foyle...arroyo...and thats all that comes to mind. damn i wish i was back in st croix now. thats real nice that he is paying for all crucians who want to see the scrimmage. damn my chance to see manu and tony. :depressed AND bowen of course...hell...the whole damn team. i know ppl from home will be giving ginobili a lot of props because they were biggin him up during the playoffs with his play. and all the girls will go crazy for tony...oh well

[boutons]

Does anybody know the date of the Spurs pre-season "Open Scrimmage" at SBC?

I hope the one in St. Thomas doesn't preclude the one in SA.

Southwest Kick-off Luncheon when?

[lilmads]

Thanks so much Romsey! I'm really hoping you can direct me towards someone because I am seriously desparate. I love the spurs for like 5 years now! I'm dying for this opportunity because it's the best one that I have.
As for why I love 'em, simply because they're the best man. :) They've always been pretty good and now they really are at their peak. I used to love the Knicks but ever since Houston's been messed up, I'm a complete Spurs fan.
And you're right, as girl, I'm nuts about TP!:) even tho Timmy and Manu both rock as well!

I believe the kick off luncheon is Monday October 24th.

I am still waiting for word about an Open Scrimmage.

[Emperor]

If there is no open scrimmage his year then i'm headed to the pre-season game against the Rockets. Interested in seeing how Olberto will do.

[lilmads]

I just found out from some UVI officials that tickets will not be sold for the scrimmage because the NBA does not allow it. I am soooo upset right now because they are raffling tickets in a lottery and I have no clue how I can take part in it because I don't even live on St. Thomas...

Still waiting for a reply from you Romsey... I'd love to know how you got your tickets!
:)

My friend is from St thomas and goes to UVI. He's on the UVI bball team so I guess they were guaranteed tickets or whatever. I was waiting on him to come online today to ask him whats up with them and how can people get them but he wasnt online today. Ill keep you updated.

Thanks for the post Romsey!:)
I'm trying to get tickets myself. I have a way set up just not sure if it's going to work out. I've heard from the person that's getting it for me that there's a lot of scruffling going around for the tickets. I'm booked for St. Thomas next week Wednesday so I'm really hoping things work out!
Hopefully it'll work out for both of us!:)
Thanks for your help though.

Oh and if by any chance I don't get my tickets, you better post some nice pix on here!!

[lilmads]

I'd like to know what you look like....

Since you're in St. Maarten like almost every weekend you must know what Indians looks like...:)
In two words, I'm short and I'm an Indian... :blah
I think that's a good enough way to put it?
