He basically said they were old and done.
I turned it to ESPN and Rome was on. In the beginning when it has the subjects on the left side the Spurs logo was on but just missed it. Wonder if anyone had seen what him and all his wisdom had to say about the team.
He basically said they were old and done.
The discussion was actually that everyone else had caught up to the Spurs (as far as talent is concerned) and that the playoffs will show what the Spurs are really made of.
Thought he might say that. He said the same thing when we were sucking ass earlier this year but he didn't say a word when we won 11 in a row.
From what I've seen this season, Rome aint got no love the Spurs.
"their problem is not between their ears, its on the calender" Jim Rome.
Rome is a wanker.
Sure he's a wanker, but there is truth in his statements. I just don't want HIM saying it.
Rome is a Lakers fan, has never liked the Spurs and will never say something surely disrespectful, he rather dances around it every day.
Rome would never cap too hard on the Spurs, he's too big of a Manu and Bowen fan.
Didn't he praise the Spurs when he had Manu on that day?
Let everyone count them out. Big ing deal. That's life. Nothing new. They'll either prove them right or wrong soon enough.
They are old. That doesn't mean they won't be able to rattle of 16 wins come playoffs.
Also, the rest of the league has had more talented teams than the Spurs for a while. The Spurs have always been the best at executing as a team.
At least ESPN is talking about the spurs.
Duncan, Manu and Parker aren't old. That's the heart, the engine of the team. The other guys will step up in the playoffs.
yeah but duncan is always injured prone. manu does have a bald spot comin up lmfao.. and parker is full of himself..
:yawn
Jim Rome is to sports as what Michael Moore is to politics.
Insignificant dumb s.
The guys been saying "Your dynasty is over" for a while now, and this whole "age" thing is overplayed.
Theres several REAL factors.
1.Michael Finley's horrendous slump
2.Adjusting to new players/experimenting with lineups
3.A tougher than normal schedule with many back to backs(Okay get one to Rome, age might play more into this)
Yet like any other analyst he doesn't give the spurs any hope of redemption, you know, how Duncan goes bat when the playoffs start, when the Spurs play their REALLY real ball, Barry's iminent return and how it will potentially improve the spurs since he was playing great before the injury, and getting players such as Thomas settled in(you know hes not completely yet)
I think Rome is funny myself, but I don't take any Sportstalk radio all that seriously.
pffft...so Sam Cassell isn't old?
suck it, Rome.
Jim Everett needs to smack him back to the stone age again
Bull .
Rome is clearly the worst of all ESPN announcers with Wilbon being second. Why do these two still have jobs is beyond me.
Yeah, and you know how the Spurs and their fans crave the attention of ESPNI could care less if ESPN talks about my team.
