AJ's jersey to be retired Dec. 22

[Useruser666]

Looking ahead: The next time Johnson is in San Antonio's AT&T Center, it will be to have his No. 6 jersey unveiled in the rafters.

That ceremony will take place Dec. 22, when the Mavericks have an off night and the Spurs host the Los Angeles Clippers.

The Spurs have retired the numbers of James Silas, George Gervin, Johnnie Moore, David Robinson and Sean Elliott.

Interestingly, Elliott's jersey was missing at the Mavericks' shootaround Wednesday. Johnson said the Spurs had to take it down for measurement purposes to make sure Johnson's is the same size as the rest of the oversized jerseys.

Asked if he wanted his jersey to hang next to that of Robinson, who was best man at Johnson's wedding, Johnson said: "You know what, it'll be nice to be anywhere in the building. They could put it in the bathroom. I don't care."



Let the battle begin!!! :wakeup

"You know what, it'll be nice to be anywhere in the building. They could put it in the bathroom. I don't care."


Very well then, the bathroom it is.

[DAINTX]

AJ was a great leader for the Spurs. Not as skilled as a Ginobli or a Parker, IMO. But his leadership was a key ingredient when the Spurs were beginning their championship run. He is held in much affection by the last generation of Spurs, including and especially D-Rob. He's a little bit of an enemy now as coach of the Mavs, but it wouldn't surprise me to see AJ back in SA at some point, perhaps succeeding Pop.

[Rummpd]

Why? The guy hit one shot in his life and was a liability the whole other time. He cannot hold Parker's jock to put it mildly. If the Spurs had had any truely talented PG in the David Robinson era poor DR would have had more than 2 rings.

[SouthernFried]

When he was playing for the Spurs, I liked him fine. He played tough...wasn't the most talented, but did his job.

He never did enough to warrant retiring his Jersey tho. I mean, alongside ICE, ROBINSON?

No freakin' way.

silly move.

MANU 6?????

[porscha]

maybe Spurs like AJ to be our coach after pop retired?

[porscha]

Very well then, the bathroom it is.

[KEDA]

Fuck A J

[dknights411]

MANU 6?????

That was right right after we drafted him. I don't know why they first gave him 6, but it certainly made for an interesting photo op.

[angel_luv]

Very well then, the bathroom it is.


We'll give him a six flush salute.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

Six is a crappy number anyway.

Let the Maverick have it.

[manustarting2gd]

I will go to this game just to boo when they do it. He is now the head of the snake called the Mavericks. He allows his team to play dirty and without class. For that, I say BOO!! Avery Johnson.. BOOOOOOOO!

[td4mvp21]

Then put it in the fucking bathroom :lol

[sa_kid20]

Man a lot of Avery hate in here which i just don't get. I mean all of you are hating on avery because he's good enough to be a head coach in the league? I know it just happens to be with the Mavs but if your gonna boo him for this jersy retirement you should have a legitament reason. I mean if avery never became a coach and was just a retired basketball player there wouldn't be all this nonsense going on. I'll be at that game and i agree that avery's stats aren't all that impressive but he meant more to this franchise than just stats and i'm sure as hell not gonna boo him.

[curtismedellin]

... you should have a legitament reason. I mean if avery never becoame a coach and was just a retired basketball player there wouldn't be all this nonsense going on.

...uhh yes there would.

[Sweetey]

I like AJ. Just don't bring that asshole Cuban here for the celebration. I hate that bastard !!!!

[SpurOutofTownFan]

Please excuse my "newness" but I wasn't around when teh spurs won the 1999 trophy. This means I don't know so much about AJ's playing style or what he did except for that shot and what people talk bout him. Still I don't think he deserves his number to be retired. I don't think he had such an impact to achieve that distintion. With all respects really.

Also in the past 2 years, he has done and said things beyond my comprehension knowing he was deemed very well by the spurs corporation and fans. I honestly think this is a travesty that should be stopped right now before people get hurt.

[BonnerDynasty]

It's stupid.

Even if it wasn't stupid, horrible fucking timing.

Don't forget it was AJ telling his clowns to bash Ginobili/Parker last night.

[SpurOutofTownFan]

The story of manu's 6 is here. He used that number overseas.

http://www.nba.com/spurs/features/behind_the_numbers.html

Manu Ginobili, San Antonio Spurs
by Greg Ruder, Spurs.com


No. 6?! Not for long. Manu now careens in No. 20.
Number 20 wasn’t the number of his boyhood idol. It isn’t the day of the month his first-born was born. And it isn’t the number his father wore and passed down to his son.

“I guess you could just say I like the way it looks,” said Manu Ginobili, starting shooting guard for the San Antonio Spurs. “The interesting story is how I came to wear the No. 20 in the first place.”

Ginobili was signed by the San Antonio Spurs on July 18, 2002, after several seasons spent in the Italian league. At the press conference to announce his signing, he actually held up a jersey with the No. 6 on it.



“The only two numbers I have ever worn in my career were No. 6 and No.10. [The Spurs] originally gave me No. 6, but that was only one season after [Dallas Head Coach and former Spurs point guard] Avery Johnson had left the Spurs, and there was an outcry from the fans who supported Avery in San Antonio," says Ginobli.

Not wanting to start off his NBA career on a bad note in a new city, Ginobili willingly gave up the No. 6 and asked instead for the No. 10. The Spurs, however, had other ideas.

“[The Spurs] told me that they had just given No.10 to Speedy Claxton (signed June 26, 2002) a couple weeks before, so at that point I really didn’t have a preference. So like I said before, I guess I thought that the No. 20 just looked good, so that’s what I took!”

[whottt]

Avery Johnson had left the Spurs, and there was an outcry from the fans who supported Avery in San Antonio," says Ginobli.





Translation: The Spurs had no intention of retiring his jersey until a bunch of asshats got involved.

At which point AJ responded, "Let him make his own number", showing what a classy dude he is.


AJ? Consider that number made sucka....for all time.

20>6

[ShoogarBear]

whottt, I'm going to the game. You want to use my other ticket?

To those fans, and Don Harris.

Fuck you and get off the Ginobili bandwagon.

[Tek_XX]

It would be fitting to hang it in the bathroom.

[Capt Bringdown]

I'm not too thrilled that Sean's and Johnnie Moore's numbers are up there. Nice players, great guys, but they don't belong with the likes of Ice and the Admiral.
Same with Avery.
If you put those guys up there, you'd have to give serious consideration to Larry Kenon, Whopper and maybe some other folks as well.

The rafters should feature immortals only.

The Spurs started down this road, now they have to finish it. Everybody who ever played for the Spurs will get their number retired.

that the No. 20 certainly just looked good :clap :clap :clap

[AFBlue]

Is it better or worse that his team seems to be struggling?

On the one hand, you'd actually respect him for taking his career to the next level and leading a solid team to playoff contention and eventual chamionship.

On the other hand....he's the coach for the fucking MAVERICKS!

I give that man no respect for his current affiliation, but appreciate his time on the court.

Bottom Line: I'm torn like a virgin's hymen

[rob5]

You Avery haters are just a bunch of blind whiners. You call yourselves real Spurs fans? I'm sure you're the same "fans" who will jump off the Spurs bandwagon as soon as the the big 3 retire. Avery was the heart of this team for a long time and those of you who don't realize this probably didn't even give a shit about the Spurs back then so stop pretending you are worthy of commenting on this subject. And as for those of you who just don't like the guy cause he's the Mavs coach....If he were one of Pop's assistants instead, you would be creaming in your pants waiting for Dec. 22. So get your head out of your ass, accept it and move on.

I'm happy about the present Spurs. Their loyalty to the team. I am proud of them. I love this team.
I'm proud to be a Spurs fan.

I am not exited to see AJ's jersey hanged next to the Admiral or the Iceman.

99% of everybody is the basketball world is going to be scratching their heads at this retirement...including quite a few in SA.

Enjoy your minority rule...



Maybe you wake up once one of AJ's players hurts or injures a Spurs player. They were damn sure trying last night...and AJ was bitching about them getting for fouls for doing it.

Oh well...if the Mavs win it will hurt just a little bit less because it's AJ right? And you question the Spursfandom of others?

[whottt]

I have no intention of watching it....

You know why they are doing it don't you? Because 60% of Spurs fans now against it and since you douche bags already got the Spurs to commit to it in 02, Pop wants to keep his word...




I'm sure you'll enjoy it thorgoughly...and if Dallas should make the finals this season...oh well, at least you'll have someone to root for? Good ole AJ right?

You gonna wear an, "I hate Tony(the boy) Parker" T-Shirt, the night they retire AJ's jersey?

Maybe bring a Parker, Manu or Bowen doll and stab it in the back again and again and again and again as you cheer that vile unworthy rag being hoisted to the rafters?

[KEDA]

I have been a Spurs fan since I was a young buck, and I have always disliked AJ. I rank him up there with Carl Herrera and Frank Brickowski on my Spurs shit list!

I might go to the game so I can boo my ass off, thats how much I dislike the guy.

[sontinospurs]

I'm sure you guys really disliked the guy during the Knicks game in '99 for the game clincher. People also forget he had a great series against Minnesota/Portland that year. His knock was his outside game, which he overcame in those playoffs. I have been a fan since the ABA days, and have seen some bad Spurs come and go, A.J. was definitely not one of them. He also overcame Mighty Mouths (D.Stoudamire) declaration that he would never lead to Spurs to a title! :toast

Kind of the way I feel. I like AJ alright when he was with the Spurs, but certainly I don't see how he rates a Jersey Retirement.

Oh, well, maybe he will pick that night to announce his retirement as the Mavs coach. Go out while he is still kind of on top. Before the Mavs embarass hiim completely and go for a sub 500 season.

[KEDA]

he hit ONE shot



so what?


Does anyone honestly think we would have not beat the Knicks that year if he did not make that shot?

[sontinospurs]

I think the Spurs are looking at the bigger picture of what he brought to the team and organization, what he stood for, etc....

[sontinospurs]

As far as the shot goes, yeah it was just one shot. Just responding to the A.J. bashers on this board. No need to bash the guy just because he became the coach of the Mavericks, ok maybe just a little, haha. If we do that, might as well bash Mario Elie (mavs asst) also.

" The Spurs need to put Avery's retired jersey right by the new championship banner so he'll know what he is missing."

[MoSpur]

I've been a fan since 1987. That's 20 years now that I think about it. I liked AJ when he was a Spur. Not gonna deny that. Not that AJ is the Mavs coach, I really dislike him. However, that has nothing to do with me not wanting his jersey retired. I can see why the organization is doing it. I just don't agree with it. In the next 15 years or so you're going to look up in the rafters and see, #44, #50, #13, #00, #32, #21, #20, #9 and you're gonna see #6.

That just doesn't look right.

[rob5]

That just doesn't look right.Agreed.

[Extra Stout]

I was once against retiring #6, but was convinced that retiring the numbers of players who weren't great, but who were fan favorites, is normal.

[whottt]

Except for the fact that he's no longer a fan favorite...run a poll on it if you doubt. That's why the Spurs are rushing it....


Not to mention the fact that the Spurs themselves had no intention of retiring it...


By Manu's own words...


This is the part where timvp calls Manu a liar...

[WhotttDynasty]

AJ is just a fluke player who hit a fluke shot. David Robinson was the real point guard on that team. David Robinson would have won six championships at point guard.

AJ was no fan favorite. No surprise, that was just fans cheering for a player they were supposed to cheer for.

I admitted I became a Spurs fan when they drafted Duncan(that was when MJ retired for a while), I am not really a fan of AJ. But I truly respect the opinions of others who think his jersey shld be on the rafters.

I just hope Spurs fans being classy as they are, won't BOOO him during the ceremony. If they do, it will be in the news and that would embarrass the Spurs org as well as the Spurs fans around the world, IMO. If you don't like it, don't clap. But don't BOO.

Manu & Tony aren't pissing and moaning about it. Neither is Pop. That should end it. If the Mavs want to get physical...I'm for it. Let the Spurs bring it to 'em! Turn Horry loose!

As for AJ...the guys he played with think he's deserving. I guess some here know more about leadership & value to the team than D Rob, Sean, etc? Uh huh. Yeah, sure you do.


Ands there it is folks...

Sickening.

Ands there it is folks...

Sickening.There what is? :lol

[whottt]

There what is? :lol


The league is investigating the shots that were given to Manu...it was obvious they crossed the line...


And that suckhole is acting like it's just typical basketball...because he's got his lips wrapped about AJ's sac...

He's not just throwing Manu and Parker under the bus, he's giving AJ directions on backing up over them.



Fuck AJ.

[ShoogarBear]

whottt, c'mon man, you gotta go with me to the game on the 22nd.

[DAINTX]

Whott...you are a pussy. Crybaby. Quit your whinning. Little pussy.

[whottt]

Whott...you are a pussy. Crybaby. Quit your whinning. Little pussy.

No...you're just a fucking idiot.


The league is investigating those fouls...stupid fuck. You think that's common?

Get back to AJ...he wanted a completion. Fuckwad.

[whottt]

Oh...and AJ sucked ass. It's a fucking joke people hold David Robinson responsible for not winning a title...

Anyone watch the fucking game tonight? You remember any guard play like that when he was playing?

[timvp]

:lol @ the meltdown.

:madrun They're investigating.

:madrun I hate AJ.

:madrun Dancing with the Stars rerun.

[DAINTX]

I know it's not "common", pussy. But no one on the team is complaining about it. It's physical play and if you don't like it, the answer is get more physical than they are, dimwit. Only a pussy looks to the league to resolve their problems. You sound like little Stevie Nash (another pussy) complaining about Horry. I guess you like "gentlemen's rules". I bet you were a real pussy in street ball. Mama ever get tired of hearing you come in the door crying? Or did she just shove your little snotty face between her legs and make you all better. Little pussy.

I might just try to get a ticket if Shoog somehow convinces Whottt to go.

If the midget gets #6 retired for the joke of the new century, then there is no question that Bowen should have #12 retired
And where is the banner for the Coyote being voted into the Mascot Hall of Fame?
