Gerard King and Tony Massenberg? I spent over a minute trying to type Mengke Bateer's name. Fuckers.

I came back and did it again. Other than King and Massenburg, the only one I forgot was Devin Brown.

The 1999 part of that is partially right, but it completely omits Will Perdue who won a title with the Spurs in 1999 and was active for every game in the Finals, but never actually got on the court for any of them. He played at least some in every game in the first 3 rounds and had two relatively significant performances in the WCSF against the Lakers (17 minutes in Game 1 with 6 points and 9 boards while battling Shaq), and in the WCF against Portland.
The same reasoning applies to Matt Bonner in 2007, who was active throughout the 2007 playoffs (and the Finals) and appeared in 9 of the Spurs 20 playoff games, but never actually got into any of the 4 games against Cleveland.

Perdue wasn't on the list? It disappeared when I typed it, unlike Bateer.

I know. I don't think he had a playoff moment. The biggest thing I remember him doing as a Spur was turning the ball over when McGrady went off.

He didn't have many playoff moments that year, but he was one of the 8 Spurs to actually get into Game 7 of the Finals that year -- he played very briefly before halftime (if I remember correctly), but he has actually appeared in a Finals Game 7.

My quiz didn't have Perdue as a recognized answer.

Weird. I know his name popped into my head, but I guess I didn't type it.

I doubt Timmy could name them all as there has been so many!

It's hard spelling all those fuckers names correctly. I got 37
Missed:
Danny Green: lol whoops
Jeff Ayres: understandably
Corey Joseph
Michael Finley
Brent Barry
Jacque Vaughn
Beno Udrih
Glenn Robinson
Tony Massenburg (tried him, spelled the name wrong)
Kevin Willis
Danny Ferry
Steve Smith
Jaren Jackson
Gerard King
Some tough ones and some obvious misses. Nice quiz to get the old brain into gear.

Got a 36. Realistically should've landed at 47 or more. My mind was drawing blanks on 2014 Spurs on top of it all.
Made it harder when you're trying to remember if Antonio McDyese and D Blair ringed or not.

41. I missed badly on the 99 squad, guess I was too young. I remember I liked them back then, though.

Jackie Butler & James White :lol
:lol. I don't think either one of them did though? Wasn't that during the so called dark years from 08-11 where the Spurs were not really contenders at all in reality? 2012 they picked it back up but those two were gone by then. MY GOD the Spurs had some bad guys coming in and out some were hopeful about :lol
If you know all those names you really should seek counseling.

I forgot Malik Rose and he was one of my faves to watch on the 2003 title team, especially against Dallas.... Out of all the names. I missed Joseph too, damn. Jeff Ayres rightfully so but I forgot some names that I never should have and got 38 of them right. I at least wanted 40. I don't know how Will Purdue was not on there at all, I tried his name a few times and nothing would come up. He was on that 1999 team and they missed him.

Gerard King making Jeff Ayres look big time.

I googled Gerard King to see if his face would jog my memory and there was a picture of him with Andrew Gaze.

dang, only got 38, but missed udrih because i couldn't remember his name and mohammed because i guess i kept spelling it wrong.
can't believe how many obvious players i missed and how many obscure names i remembered. i did worse on the 2014 team than i did the 1999 team somehow......and i did remember andrew gaze.
