So, to sum up:I was born and raised in Phoenix.I was a Suns fan at first *gasp*.
I moved to L.A. when I was 17. I had Lakers / Clippers season tickets for quite a while. (Half season of each team). At that point, I was just a fan of basketball. I wasn't a Spurs fan. I wasn't a Laker fan. Honestly, I was a Jazz fan(sacrilege to Spurs fans).
I was a big fan of Duncan at Wake. When he got drafted by the Spurs, I started following the Spurs. For his first few years in the league, I watched the Spurs a lot but wasn't really a Spurs fan (even in the 1999 le).
Starting in 2000-01, I started actually liking the Spurs. I didn't meet timvp until the playoffs of 2002. So I was actually a Spurs fan for about 2 years before meeting him.
Though the Spurs are by far my favorite team since that time, I am not one of those die-hard since birth Spurs fans at all. Though, the 03-05-07 Championship runs were freakin awesome.
It's all good. I was a Mavericks fan when I was younger. Demographics suck.
I'm a little jealous of some of the people on this site that have been Spurs fans for all of their lives. It's nice to know that the owner of this site has been a fan about the same length of time I have.
The only pro-Laker aspect that I know about Kori is she doesn't like when I make Kobe jokes. Or if I say anything negative about Kobe she usually doesn't back me up
But back when Shaq was on the Lakers, the roles were kinda reversed. I've always liked Shaq. Kori doesn't. I also claim Phil Jackson is the best coach in sporting history. Kori says she wants to slap him.
My darkest secret is both of my parents grew up as Laker fans. I think my mom was a Laker groupie. Now that I think about it she would have been a groupie around the time I was conceived. Uh oh ......
Phil Jackson
Ahem
Kori FTW

Well that was a personal thing with me and Shaq. I don't mind him now.. he's funny sometimes.But back when Shaq was on the Lakers, the roles were kinda reversed. I've always liked Shaq. Kori doesn't.
True.I also claim Phil Jackson is the best coach in sporting history. Kori says she wants to slap him.
My darkest secret is both of my parents grew up as Laker fans. I think my mom was a Laker groupie. Now that I think about it she would have been a groupie around the time I was conceived. Uh oh ......Your mom was definitely a Laker groupie. She talks about the Lakers with stars in her eyes.
As for me, I could name the Spurs' entire roster before I could read. I've watched about 99.9% of Spurs games since I was about five years old. I'm not a fan of any other team in any other sport. I'm about the opposite of a bandwagoner as possible ... so Kori's semi-bandwagonish ways help keep my homerness in check.
I think timvp needs to have his mom write some stories in the Club, or at least start a blog... And I think I need to hear the Kori v. Shaq story.
I guess your kids will be Spur fans every 2-3 years
was your mom part of wilt's count?
you were a jazz fan
who's kory?
Good question.
Even worse -- a current Yankees fan.you were a jazz fan
Wow this is funny. See all spurs fans come from different backgrounds. As for kori, i kind of feel ya, I loved the showtime lakes-being magic, byron, kareem, coop, etc. as i grew up my whole life in socal...but when i started really playing ball when i was about 8 when robinson got drafted and my friend told me hey check this robinson guy out, once i saw a game i was hooked. My dad was a HUGE lakers fan-west, baylor but ever since he saw me become a huge spurs fan he transformed and now he often comes with me to SA for a spurs game a year.
I didn't hate the lakes at all until the 96-97 season (and kori that jazz thru the early /mid 90's ohhhhh god, KM and JS, robby needed more help!) when kobe became a laker. IMO that's when the laker hate started for me, b4 he was a game changer, b4 he was even any good-He was a ing ! period. And throughout the years he's proved he's a over and over and over and over again-so idk how you can like the dude but to each their own. Personally i like respectable players, ones who care about their teammates and others more than the love they have for themselves-i do respect his talent tho
Shaq I didn't like in the 90s because he often talk trash on robinson, of course i hated that-and anyone who saw robby/shaq matchups when robby was in his prime would know he held his own and more than his own sometimes. Then that just carried on into his domination in their early 00's of an old robby. I don't mind shaq anymore at all, i find him pretty funny, and he's said he respects robby since then so that's all water under the bridge for me.
As for phil, yea he's a great coach, i dont really like him but you can easily say he's the best coach ever and i won't argue.
I am the fan of the greatest team in the world Panathinaikos with the greatest fans in the world.
For NBA I like Spurs.
Your internet die in greece?
Sell out.
Ha
Culburn369=weird or drunk all the time
Perhaps, but at least I ain't a weak little like you.
If you were a Laker fan, this site would have Lakerstalk.comThe only pro-Laker aspect that I know about Kori is she doesn't like when I make Kobe jokes. Or if I say anything negative about Kobe she usually doesn't back me up

hmm, and how would you know this? "A weak little " haha. Alright well if im 5'8 , 140 in your mind that's fine with me, but keep thinking that big boy. Funny you can't take a little heat, like barely any heat, and you gotta pretend like im a little ---keep up your weird antics culburn , will get you far. And i mean since your so big and you prob could go into UFC, or boxing, you know i wouldn't want to mess with you....yikers!!
Simple: you tear Kobe a brand new asshole, then you sell out at the end cuz yer a weak little .
Ummm, wtf cul. i've said this for years, the same thing i said in my post, i have my reasons to not like him, whatever, people like some players some don't. Anytime I argue with my friends bout the lakes I always say I admit he works his ass off and i respect his talent "On court". Two diff things man, i can say kobe is a damn good player-because if i didn't that would be re ed-but i can still not like him for all his bull . You get it? A difference. I ain't selling out at all, and when my friends talk to me they don't like TD but they know he's good and respect his abilities. It's really not that hard to figure out how you can do one and not the other.
How old are you? 12?
