In Praise of Rasho

[ShoogarBear]

psyche.

[timvp]

At least he won the jump ball.

[timvp]

Oh wait no he didn't.

Nevermind.

:smokin

[dn0]

No praise for that stiff.

[baseline bum]

At least he's not Hedo.

[ShoogarBear]

angel and RashoFan still love him . . .

[Despot]

If he dies, do the spurs still have to pay him?? Maybe we could just fake his death and make him "dissapear" back to Slovenia. Pop should still have connections in the CIA, and get him a new identity.

Yes I do!!!

I'm also a Hedo fan so leave him alone too!

[baseline bum]

Yes I do!!!

I'm also a Hedo fan so leave him alone too!

If you tell me you're a Steve Smith and Vinny Del Negro fan too I'm going to vomit all over the monitor.

[timvp]

Remind me never to let you interview for a front office job on the Spurs.

[ShoogarBear]

Charles Smith and Charlie Ward need love, too.

[RashoFan]

Hell Yeah WE Do!!!!:tu

I am rooting for people the current front office picked. :angel

Maybe you can dissapear in Rocky Mountains or in Grand canyon. All assure you that you won't be missed.

btw: Rasho is proud to say how life in US sucks and he can't wait a moment to go back home. (Decent food and peaceful style of life-no bombs and other Bush crap)

:rolleyes

[DieMrBond]

Are you guys forgetting Shane Heal, and Andrew Gaze - the australian connection? How about a little love their way :)

[FromWayDowntown]

I'm stunned -- stunned I tell you -- that there's no love for Gerard King.

Dude's got a ring and everything. He played about as much as Rasho to get that ring, too.

[ShoogarBear]

Oh, to have Mengke Bateer and Jimmy Chang on the bench once more . . .

[SpursWoman]

If you tell me you're a Steve Smith and Vinny Del Negro fan too I'm going to vomit all over the monitor.


At least you didn't put Danny Ferry in there.... :lol

[ShoogarBear]

At least you didn't put Danny Ferry in there.... :lol

Danny Ferry won Game 2 of the 2003 first round series against Phoenix for us.

Never forget.

Praise of rasho. According to statistics he:
M Finley* 19.2* *0* *3* *-2*
T Duncan* *38.5* *17* *15* *1*
B Bowen* * 29.0* *4* *5* *-17*
T Parker* * 35.4* *17* *0* *-13*
M Ginobili* *28.8* *16* *7* *-13*
N Mohammed* *5.7* *0* *-1* *-11*
R Horry* * 23.0* *2* *8* *-16*
N Van Exel* *22.0* *6* *3* *9*
F Oberto* * 4.9* *0* *0* *-1*
B Barry* * 7.8* *2* *1* *-5*
B Udrih* * 1.9* *0* *0* *-4*
Min Pts hv +/-

he played a stable game along Finley, VanX and Duncan. Now we should ask ourselves what kind of backcourt have we got? Parker and Manu are weak. Were Spurs beaten by a better coach or a weak backcourt? Parker is still the only guy to beat Spurs...

And must I stress even Parker said due credit to Rasho for his record - points in the paint?

PS: Stats are from Popcorn Mashine.

:rolleyes
Travis, you need to understand we foriegners are sentimentally-attached to the players from our country.

I'm lucky that Manu is the type of player that almost everybody praises and that Oberto is almost invisible.

But I feel the Slovenian's pain when people insult Rasho or Beno (although Rasho yesterday sucked baboon's balls :lol )

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

No love for Uwe?

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Ummmm, Rasho, damn.

What a sad sad story. If only he were able to jump at speed other than uber-slow...then maybe small forwards wouldn't outrebound him and out time him.

Did yall see when a rebound landed right in his hands? He gave it away and Manu saved his ass.

interesting...

[boutons_]

"to jump at speed other than uber-slow"

He's 7 ft with decent arm length. He doesn't need great hops or speed. Jason Kidd is not fast and is short, and RBs damn well, because he gets himself into position to RB.

Danny Fortson is fat, can't jump, and is much shorter than Rasho, but is a great rebounder, because he get his fat ass into good position.

Rasho plays good defense but is woefully outmanned by physical athletic players like the two Wallaces when it comes to rebounding.

And we lost both games to Detroit because of rebounds. They beat us like a drum both times. If the Spurs don't find the answer we will not repeat

he was outmanned, that is for sure...

But that means that no one else took care of rebounds... We did not make almost any second chances, but hardly picked up more dRB. Rasho just simply cannot be guilty, if people do not cooperate on getting second chance material.

Kori has already established, everything is the same, the team just do not get oRB that they got last season, perhaps as a side-efect of TP's new shot selection. What to do? Pop needs to make a plan for gettin more Manuwise in sense of an offense from half-distance... Now that is just a suggestion.

wow, if you think these statistics actually mean anything, you're an idiot.

That's what I call an intelligent and articulate poster. :depressed

I demand an apology. Otherwise you should stay in a corner and think what you have done!
