Pistons have belts, what should Spurs have?

Personally I think all the belts do is make them look like big blue and white cigars. And the Spurs are about to smoke 'em.

What do you think an "NBA CHAMPIONS" baseball hat is???

I believe he was referring to something "extra" in addition to the usual stuff the league gives out.

Call it an insecurity complex all you want. But, a thread this long on a Spurs message board ONLY TALKING about the Pistons championship belts kind of speaks volumes about some of you Spurs fans.

Fair point but some of you Pistons fans have added to the length with personal attacks. (not you)

If the Spurs had done it I would've thought it was just as ridicules. This is my OPINION.
Of course, the Spurs wouldn't have done it casue Pop doesn't put up with those kind of shenanigans. So we don't have to worry about that.
The reason most Spurs fans (most , not all.. some here do think it was an ok idead) don't like them is becasue we all tend to have the same mentality as the Spurs organization. = non flashy, sticking with the facts, focusing on next year instead of rolling in the limelight of the win.

You keep your riots, declining economy, cold weather and shitty baseball and football teams.

That's fine. But when you guys run out of vehicles, don't come crying to Detroit.. (OK, there were a couple folks that said the belts were their preference) This is all harmless smack anyway.
Don't even tell me you're driving foreign...

Its not harmless when it gets personal, on either side.

read the news, by next year, everyone is gonna be ordering their cars from Japan :lol

You know, when they first rolled those belts out I thought it was funny as hell. Great idea. But why would you break them out now? Regardless, they could roll out thongs, hats or whatever else was mentioned in this thread and I wouldn't care, provided of course that they won.

True, that's my beautiful 1999 Ford Ranger.

But you also have to remember, in a few years, we're all going to be driving Toyota Tacomas to the Alamodome to watch Major League Soccer. :lol

Loosen up, bro. Spice up your life. Order the ravioli next time! Take a chance. Do you know what it takes to win a championship? Flying to city after city for 8 months? It takes a lot to win a championship. They are proud!

I guess Im the only Spurs fan that actually thought those belts were pretty badass. And, like I said I hope if the Spurs wins Rasheed will hand his over to Timmy

That's what I thought. Plus where did they keep them stored for 1 whole year, in their trophy case???

Hate to add insult to injury but Toyota's building a plant here.

btw it is smack. Pistons would be my second favorite team if I had one. Some people aren't getting that a little smack is part of the fun.

Sorry, she is not a bro! :lol

The Belts in my view are like the Boxers trophy.The Pistons are like a boxer.

The Spurs are Lenox Lewis.
