I honestly like Blair he never got his fair shot. No point in pointing out the obvious we all no he's undersized. Only thing I didn't get is why he didn't add more to his game? When your disadvantage is your height you have to find other means of surviving with the land of giants.

We signed Splitter, Manu will get the bulk of what's left and we will sign some stiff for the balance that's left.
This was always going to happen though! The Spurs were not going to just sign some name thrown out there and it got people excited for no reason! This happens year after year and they never seem to learn thats not going to happen nor what the Spurs do. They might get a piece or two now and nobody fans wanted in their top 5 wish list! That is the way it is, frankly competing every year has proven either A that is the right strategy or B they blow chances at big names by signing their guys year after year (I take the first option). This is the Spurs way, period.

Nope. It is only because of Duncan. Duncan is the best big man in the game over the course of those years. Duncan is one of the best all time greats and the Spurs success is a direct result of Duncan. Once he is gone the front office will be exposed as not being anything special and the spurs will be like all the other annual lottery teams until they land a franchise player again.

This is my point exactly why I fuck with the spurs the long way, they low key and always on point.

Bingo. You sound just like me Rascal. For some reason all these Spurs homers think that it's a crime for me to idolize Tim Duncan's greatness so much. I guess it's because Manu is their favorite player.
