New York Knicks in the glory days, with the title winning team of DeBusschere, Reed, Frazier, Bradley, and Barnett. The first 3 made the "NBA Top 50 of the First 50 Years" list.

It was cool to see Dick Barnett interviewed in the ESPN special "Black Magic". Not many people remember him, but he was a big part of that championship team. He had an amazing fadeaway jumper, his nickname was "Fall Back Baby". (we used to call it a fall-back jumper in the old days.)

No favorite team before; became a Spurs fan in 1992; since then, never jumped on the obvious banwagons (Bulls, Lakers); I had to go trough all those playoff eliminations; and then Robinson missed a whole season; the rest is history.....

yes.
my aunt, that lady to the right, was the choreographer of the luvabulls, so she knew ALL the bulls well.
i even have shoes that say 'to david, from michael jordan'.
so, excuse me sometimes if i ever brag about mj. :p

[CubanMustGo]

I didn't really follow basketball before the team showed up in SA back in the ABA days. And once they did it was all Spurs, all the time.

MJ bandwagoners. :rolleyes

[BonnerDynasty]

Dallas Chapparells.




I win.

[honestfool84]

MJ bandwagoners. :rolleyes

i think quite possibly if you were held by MJ, on the eve of his second title, when you were three years old, then you'd probably be a 'fan'

You're the luckiest bastard ever.

[Solid D]

As a kid it was the Boston Celtics

I also liked the Kansas City Kings when Nate Archibald was with them. He was past his prime when he went to Boston but in his prime, what a fantastic player - "Nate the Skate"!

ABA - Dallas Chaps

I had the pleasure of seeing all these teams live - some good times.

Michael Jordan could've given my $2 million when I was 3 and had my face tattooed on his neck and I still wouldn't be a fan of his. I'd still be a Spurs fan through and through.

[SpursFanFirst]

I was born into it...

But growing up, I was also a fan of the Pistons, Lakers, Celtics, and Barkley...That's when the NBA was something to be proud of.

In the end though, it's always been the Spurs first for me.

:nope bad boys..

[samikeyp]

As far as i'm concerned...pro basketball started in 1973 with the Spurs. ;)

[Timmy!]

Dallas Chaparrals.

[Jimcs50]

Did not really like the NBA that much....just a casual observer. Liked college bball exclusively. (My Terps)

[Dex]

The first famous person I could ever really recognize (that wasn't a cartoon) was David Robinson.

The first game I ever saw live was a Spurs vs. Kings game.

The first playoff game I can remember was 'The Elbow'.

The first toy I ever got really attached to was a Spurs Coyote doll. I carried him around so much that his jersey eventually tore off and my mom had to sew him a new shirt.

Like many people on this board, I bleed silver and black. And I always will, even if I'm halfway across the world and everyone else has jumped off the bandwagon.

How ADORABLE............. :spin

[Mister Sinister]

I was a Bulls fan during their dynasty days. Sort of hard for me not to have been, since I've lived in that area all but the 2 blessed years I was in SA, and I became a Spurs fan when I moved down there.

[timvp]

I was dead when the Spurs began.

[remingtonbo2001]

Spur fan for life!

I grew up in San Antonio and my first memory as a child is of David Robinson picking me up above his head at the Dominion Country Club.

Spurs are the only team from any sport that I truly get upset about when they lose.
