I mean how many centers in the league can do that? But it just seems like a coin flip whether you're going to have him healthy at any given time.
Joseph had to go. He developed into too good a player to be stuck as a third point guard and I'm happy to see him in Toronto where he can get lots of minutes. It's like I felt about Budenholzer, I hated losing him but he was way too good to just be an assistant coach. Or how I felt about Presti.
I would have loved to have had Baynes back, but how was he going to turn down that huge contract Detroit offered him?
Belinelli I can live without. His defense was awful and while he is an amazing shooter, he doesn't do enough well to make up for his defensive shortcomings. I could live with Brent Barry getting destroyed by opposing guards since he had such strong point guard skills that paid off bigtime in some of the most important games in franchise history. But Marco was never Brent Barry.
Ayres wasn't any good. Just a gamble that never paid off.
I gotta admit that opening with Splitter blocking Wade got me a little misty eyed. Sure it was a goaltend, but that play was the last straw the broke the camel's back for Miami, and some great redemption after that nasty block James got on him in Game 2 of the 2013 Finals.
Thought it belonged in this thread as well tbh...

Wanted CoJo back but yeah there was no way the Spurs could afford him anymore.
Baynes, ehh. Good dude and contributed some but he was replaceable.
I never liked Beli but he was fine here. A great regular season player.
Ayres is the biggest loss of the gr-- :lol. Nah, goodbye.
Losing Cojo REALLY sucks in hindsight, but he's in a better place now :cry
:cry Ayres :cry I always believed you would turn it around :cry
Just thank god Danny isn't on this list, tbh.
Wish Bonner was in that vid :bang

I probably will miss Cojo the most, seeing his game develop the past couple years. Now that he becoming the player the Spurs drafted him for, he's going to play for another team.
The good thing about it is that none of the departed went to most hated or current rivals.
Great supporting cast with a lot of memorable plays. Good job. Would preferred a different sound track though.
Yep, troopers till the end.Quote:

nice video. thanks for sharing!
I wish we could have kept Cojo and Splitter. Good guys and real professionals. I feel good for both guys though. Cojo deserved a bigger role and more money. He got both in Toronto. Plus I still get to watch him a lot since I'm from Canada and I like the Raptors. Spurs did good for Splitter as well. Sending him to a winning team and to a coach who he's already familiar with.
Its amazing to see that the Spurs also look what's best for the player when they trade them. They traded George Hill to Indiana. A team that was pretty good at the time and also he's hometown. Now they traded Splitter to Altlanta, one of the best teams in the east.
I'm really going to miss Tiago. I actually considered him a friend. I guided him on three different bird hunting excursions. He would come out solo, so we actually got to talk alot. The first time, it litterally felt like a first date with a gorgeous girl, but he was such a good dude that all that nervousness went away pretty quick. We wound up swapping numbers, occassionally texting me when he had extra seats to a game. There goes that hook-up
Well done!
Nice video. Im glad you added Bonner's music video. Despite how frustrated I would get with some of these guys I loved Ayres, Baynes, and Corey's reactions on the bench. They were always the first to jump up and scream after a fast break dunk, alley oop, etc.
I thought Marco brought some intensity to the team too. I remember after Marco hit that 3 in OKC in game 6 he looked at the bench and yelled. Great intensity. Also that dunk he had against Philly. As well as the 3's against the Clips.
I always remember that game Tiago had against Dallas. Great passing and great defense in that game, also loved that emotion he showed on that and-1 he got. Also loved how he got revenge against the Heat.
I'll remember Baynes for that game he had against Portland. On that putback dunk he had, he completely pushed Lillard out of the way.
Also have to love how Joseph posterized camping Ibaka. "Serge, Serge, Serge."
For Ayres the only thing that comes to mind is that dunk he had courtesy of Timmy.
great vid, amazing production quality, and merited.

It goes without saying that the Spurs family of players, coaches and administration will miss them. I know they will remember the city of San Antonio and our fans with affection for all the support we gave to them.
It's not a goodbye, just "Hasta la vista"
I couldn't even watch the video once the song started, I was laughing too hard. Really, that song?
Losing tiago and Joseph hurts.
They traded Malik Rose to the fucking New York Knicks, who won all of 30 games that season and the next year combined. So there goes that argumentQuote:

With TP declining, too bad they couldn't keep Joseph.
Great video. Thanks!

Same here - hated to lose Splitter.Quote:
