Reply With Quoteanybody has vid of dice dunk?
the prime Yao was much closer to "GOAT" standard than Dice has ever been imho. yao had a couple 20+10 seasons in his prime dude was a really good player those years tbh, really a regret he's been worn out so soon.
anybody has vid of dice dunk?
Liked Dice alot before he became a Spur, and love him now that he is a Spur.Good defender, good mid-range J, and most importantly great guy...
THe old man still has some life left - at least for this season.
I miss him already and he's not even gone yet.
Please pick up your option and give it one more year, Dice - the Spurs need you.
Sincerely,
Ruff
He was over or near 40 averaging 22 a GAME! How is that at this age stinking it up? I think he had 45 and 50 pt games too at 40 or near it! He wsa not MJ we knew yes, but damn man he hardly stunk it up. If that is stinking it up then most younger stink.
6 months...6 years old...whatevs right?
Dice +=
Classy guy. He will be missed.
I'm hopping that a Championship will give him cause to come back and defend it next season. Otherwise I'm sure he's done.
I'm pretty sure they were talking about Jordan when they mentioned GOAT but I thought I'd let you know McDyess averaged 20+10 from the 99 to the 01 season right before his first major injury. In 99 only he and one other NBA player averaged 20 points 10 rebounds and 2 blocks a game. The other guy was some no name Spurs kid...Dumken? Dutton? I can't remember now...
Dice really brings us quality minutes. If he could just stop doing this one pass every game that gets intercepted, everything would be perfect. I can understand though that he wants to retire. I mean, its not just the minutes on the basketball court, but all the work which needs to be done to stay in shape. There comes the day when a player simply wants to ride into the sunset, and I hope Dice does it with a ring ...
If he gets a ring, he might possibly stay another year. It could happen. Never say never.
Dice is playing great this season. His D and rebound has been outstanding
With Dyess, there will always be a "what might have been" factor. He was nothing short of a freak who was flat out un-guardable at times.
But, what may be even more impressive than what he used to be is how he was able to remake his game to become one of the league's better role players in the absence of having the explosiveness that defined his early game.
I would pay big bucks to see his face if he wins a ring with us. That would be SO sweet!
I sure hope that Splitter will be a better fit by next season.
This is the best point you've made. I was happy to see David go out on top but I also thought that even with him in limited minutes, Spurs would have repeated. I've always respected Bird but used to hate him for some reason. But seeing him get up off the floor and come back in, knock down shots, make the big plays, and then have to lay down again, really changed the way I saw him. Especially when comparing them to many of today's stars who can't play thorugh a hangnail or common cold.
If the Spurs win the championship this season, Dice would have earned a well deserved ring, he didn't coat tail. He had bad luck with the Pistons, that teams were better with Dice on the floor than with Ben Wallace.
My guess is that if the Spurs win it all this season, Dice may retire, but who knows.
Only one thing to do: Get Dice a ring.
Ice for Dice!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly though, I love Dyess but if he gets a ring this ring then I believe it will be so fitting for him to retire that way, almost like with D-Rob.

Posted on January 14, 2011 at 11:46 pm by Buck Harvey on Sports in Antonio McDyess
With 43 seconds to go, with the game long ago decided, Antonio McDyess acted like someone who wanted to meet Dirk Nowitzki’s orthopedist. McDyess stumbled a half-dozen rows into the stands in pursuit of a loose ball.
“That was scary,” McDyess said later, and he smiled.
McDyess knows what can go wrong even when everything appears to be perfect in January. But he also knows this doesn’t always have to do with health or with luck.
His Pistons, of five years ago, taught him that.
The previous NBA team to start a season faster than these Spurs is Detroit in 2005-06. They had lost to the Spurs in the previous Finals, and they played the next season as if every game was a Game 7. They routed the Spurs twice in rematches in that early stretch.
Old creaky knees McMummy. I never understand how people down him for being old when he still, after all the injuries, has more hops than a lot of the guys in the league.
Win it this year Spurs.
And maybe next year too?
