First of all there is a team called Phoenix who has gotten better. The spurs just signed a 34 year old in Robert Horry who doesn't have much left. I also think that Parker's inconsistency will hurt them next year just like every year. They need to add a better backup point guard who can guard stronger point guards like James. I am not convinced that San Antonio can repeat with this same team. Bowen will also get older. Phoenix right now has taken the lead.
The Offseason Is Not Done
Grade After It Is Done
Thank You!
spurs alos just hired a shooting coach
to help the shooters!
Parker will always be inconsistent. He is undersized at 6'1 and will get owned by Billups. San Antonio should've let Horry go and get a backup point guard which Beno isn't.
Are you sure you're a Spurs fan? Talk about a downer.Quote:

Parker is more consistent, Big Three will get only better
Nazr and Rasho are a great competition
Beno is a wild and promising project
Horry, (Big Dog, Devin) just gettin better and better.
What more would we want? I personaly just that 2 of Spurs return with win from the European Championship. That would be a great boost of confidence...and I would be dreamin'!
So why are you so down?
Big Shot Bobby!!!
He is still inconsistent offensively and it could hurt them next year. Billups with a improved Detroit team would beat San Antonio. They should've beaten them this year except for Rashweed.
if spurs get sar they will not need tp's points as much!
He does this crap on every thread. Talks about being a Spurs fan, then starts jumping ship. His opinions are humorous at most.Quote:

Try again.
SAR has no defense and is overrated. He has never done anything for any team. Portland was better with Darius Miles at small forward and Randolph at power forward or even Patterson.
Dude, are you even a Spurs fan? First of all, how the hell does Phoenix have an edge on us? So what if they got Thomas and Bell....last time I checked they were simply good role players. Defense cannot be taught over the span of 3 months (or in the case of Nash...ever). We beat the Suns, who had hte best record in the NBA and MVP IN 5 EASY games. If that was the Suns at their best, I am hardly scared of them with Thomas and Bell additions.Quote:

I don't care if he's 35...he's still got it and that's all that matters.
Parker is inconsistent and will ALWAYS get owned by Billups? Hmm...guess I missed it where Parker held Billups in check for the first half of Game 7 of the NBA Finals. Out of all the PG's in the league, the fact that the only one our 23 year old PG seems to have trouble with is Billups--a former Finals MVP, I can live with that.
:rolleyes
funny how you are already assuming pistons will be in the finals again. The pistons barely beat the Heat. If Wade doesnt get hurt pistons are done after 6 games. The pacers will be better as well with Artest coming back. Please try to show a little bit of intelligence before running around with your head cut off chicken little.Quote:

Horry doesn't need much left, I say bench him until playoff time comes around! :spin Parker can only get more consistent. He's not as consistent as I'd like him to be, but then again he's consistent enough to have 2 rings. Someone to guard stonger point guards? Hmmm, don't we have someone named Bowen? Come back when Phoenix learns defense.Quote:

Spurs 4, Phoenix 1 with 3 games won in Phoenix. Yeah, Thomas and Bell should put them over the top seeing as it was a really close series. :rolleyes.
Oh, and according to you, we should trade Horry of all people to secure a backup pg instead of, say, Rasho?
You may think your points are nuggets of wisdom but don't be fooled. They're nuggets alright, but they're definitely composed of another substance.
phoenix and dallas in a grueling 7 game series :lol
you sound like a bitter suns fan :depressed :baby
do us all a favor and change your name to sunsgotnone
until then :stfu :idiot
3 rings in 7 i trust SPURS front office to take care of bizness

And they won't be better until Marion can stop being Bowened.Quote:

Phoenix didn't have the depth to allow them to play every other day but some idiot decided to start the series right after game 6 for the suns. Talk about bad scheduling. Duncan hardly sprained his ankle in that game and actually finished it so he was just fine. Nash was playing huge 45+ minutes per game and that was the problem.
but the thing is , the suns knew this goin into the seasons and playoffs, so thats not really much of an excuse
Spursdaone is the worst troll that we've ever had on the forum. Some trolls are funny. Some are just pulling your chain. But I don't know what the point is for pretending to be a Spurs fan. Just be the bandwagon jackass fan to whatever team you really are.
Do you need me to change your user name?
Phoenix didn't have the depth to allow them to play every other day but some idiot decided to start the series right after game 6 for the suns.
SO IT IS THE NBA'S FAULT THE SUNS HAD NO DEBTH?
also, cmon, u can use the tired excuse if u barely lost a game or a series, but considerin how easy of a series it turned out to be, u cannot actually believe tiredness is why they lost
I'm a spurs fan but don't agree with the opinions of some of the other people on this forum. I don't care if they disagree with me. I enjoy it.
Just make his name Bandwagon Jackass and give him Sequ's title, because all this guy does is start sheyitt.Quote:

Throw in Parker for a can of beans, and we can skip straight into signing the Spurs up for the WNBA.
I can't believe I actually spent the time to debate Horry's worth with this nut.
Credibility lost.
And even that's a stretch. That implies that it was actually there at one point.

You've convinced me Spursdaone. I have an idea, why don't you pick another team that doesn't suck as bad as the Spurs and follow them. Here's a list of message boards to choose from.
Just fine?!?! It was in the heat of the moment, with the Seattle fans cheering that he got up off the floor and took over the game. Hardly sprained it? You've obviously never played basketball other than on your Playstation.Quote:

Period.
bowen isnt an unbelievable player, but wouldnt it be smarter to wait till bowen cant
guard people before thinkin of trading him. Also, i think bowen has reached the point
where he deserves to retire a spur. Duncan is already there, so is manu

by using Spursdaone's GM methods, lets trade Duncan for the Bogut guy, cause Duncan's old. Trade Manu for some highschool sophmore phenom, cause you gotta think about the future! And how do you think we replace Parker with either his 21 year old brother or hell! lets get his youngest brother Pierre, he plays ball too! The Spurs would be the youngest in the league! Not the best, but at least the youngest!
The only slippage that occured in Bowen's vicinity was that of the guy he was guarding. Examples: Hamilton, Marion, Allen, Carmelo.....Quote:

How the fuck do you figure Phoenix has taken the lead? By signing Kurt Thomas and Raja Bell? We could take our exact same team and play these guys tomorrow and "kick their asses".Quote:

most ppl mainly bandwagon spuirs fans forget how parker had to play extended minutees and did a great job on billups, cause besides billups cant guard parker either it was pistons bigs that slowed parker and pls dont forget billups was drafted by the celts and wasnt a good player for years parker is battle tested and only can get better dumbass'
The biggest weakness with Phoenix was depth and now they have taken care of that they will be that much scarier. San Antonio will need more.
Okay lets play Suns are the ones Spursdaone.
Right now they have:
Stoudamire
Nash
Marion
Thomas
Voskhul (Laughing hysterically)
Barbosa ( who is proving to be a worthless backup PG after three years)
Bell (in all likelihood but at the cost of their MLE)
They still have to sign:
Johnson ( who unless he's a fool will take them for a max salary)
Jackson (who might get their LLE)
Hunter (who they'll undoubtedly lose)
So now you have a big rotation of Stoudamire, Thomas, Marion and Voshkul (puke)
and a small roatation of Nash, Johnson, Bell, maybe Jackson and Barbosa (puke)
Better hope nobody stubs a toe.
Suns lineup
C Thomas/Stoudemire
PF Stoudemire/Marion
SF Marion/J. Jackson
SG Johnson/Bell
PG Nash/Barbosa/Johnson
It works perfectly.
Yeah perfectly....in the Spurs favorQuote:

Kurt Thomas blows.
Spurs will sweep the Suns.

Bullshit. You keep on wacking off to the Phoenix lineup. Nash is not going to have a good year again. That was a fluke.
Phoenix is through.
Bowen is 3 years older than Nash. Nash will be just fine if we are going by players can last till they are 40. The suns will be the favorite next year. SAR might be the answer but what was the question? :lol The suns were up almost every game until they wore out but now they are deep and that should scare some us spurs fans.

In fact, the Suns barely competed.
I predict an after effect next season and the Suns will end up in the 6th or 7th seed.
Book it.
Bowen doesn't play offense? What does that mean? The suns were in every game but wore out in the end. The suns have way too much up and coming talent to have an after effect.Quote:

Good thread. I agree with everything Spursdaone has brought up. The spurs need to add a younger player who can help them next year not lock up guys who will quickly be on the downslide. I also would not have resigned Horry. The spurs can't just bring back the same team and expect to win it all again.Quote:

Good thread. I agree with everything Spursdaone has brought up.
This guy is an idiot, seriously. Phoenix still sucks, they will never get a ring. Amare is the only bright spot for that team, and Nash is aging. Marion gets owned by Bruce, Tony destroies Nashy, Manu owns Joe Johnson and Tim plows through everyone. Get over it, Tim Duncan was 70% in these playoffs, and after a full offseason and with the additions of Scola and whoever we trade Rasho for (assuming we do), the Spurs will repeat.

What basically comes out of your mouth is;
I don't know why the Spurs didn't have the worst league in the NBA with the record 0-82? Why is this?
Wow. I didn't know I would be so popular but the fact is the spurs can't dominate forever. This is the suns coming out party. Duncan's injuries are not a good thing and seem to happen more frequent. I hope the spurs can pull it off but you can't take this team lightly. SAR will be needed as a backup.
Horry will soon be worthless. Its better to move a player right before he hits the downslide and thats now for Horry. Three years will be too much. Its not like there are no other nba players who could hit clutch shots in a final series. Don't think back to this year and expect Horry to always be able to deliver for the next 3 years.
He is an overall average role player who has had some big moments in the finals.
