1. Gervin being traded
2. The 2011 Playoffs Punked by Memphis (in Progress)
3.. The 1995 Playoffs punked by Houston
4. Jerry Tarkainan and his Lolyd Daniels Project
5. The 2004 Season .4
6. Alfred Hughes BUST!
7. The two 21-61 Seasons 1989 and 1997
8. Getting beat by the Jazz in the Play-offs twice after smashing them in reg season in the late 1990's
9. Malik Rose being Traded
10. 1991 Playoffs punked by Golden State
That's a wierd list.
While disappoinitng - I would not rank this anywhere near the top 10
This team has not palyed well heading into the playoffs-best palyer is injured and they are playing a team that they do not match up well with. Hard to equate this or rank higher than the 95 WCF or even the 79 ECF
By the way- Malik being traded help the Spurs win a le.
#4 begot Sean and Tim
The manu's foul on Dirk in 2006 ?
And 2011 should not be in the top 10 IMO. Except if you consider it like the official end of the Duncan era but his actual end was either 2008 or the day of his retirement.
1. 2004: 0.4
2. 2006: Manu's foul on Dirk
3. 1995: Hakeem/ DRob matchup
4. 2010: Jefferson new contract
5. 1979: Sir Bonner banging his wife with no condom
2001 WCF beatdown by LA is by far the worst.
2006 Manu foul on Dirk is number 2.
This series is number 3.
summer 2010: Greggory Poppovich signs a double agent deal with the lakers. His payment, land in the California wine country.
How has only one person in this thread even mentioned 2001?
how is losing to the 3 peat lakers even comparable to losing to 8th spot memphis?
this is gotta be the low point of the Spurs franchise. 60 wins, 1st in West and a 1st round beatdown.
Indeed. It's one thing to lose a heartbreaking Game 7 or to discover that a team that you thought was pretty good is just not quite good enough.
But to endure those 4 games in 2001 and the total quit of Games 3 and 4 is absolutely the lowest moment I've experienced as a Spurs fan.
1979 Losing game 7 in the ECF to Washington has to be on that list
Game 3 San Antonio Spurs 72 @ Los Angeles Lakers 111
Game 4 San Antonio Spurs 82 @ Los Angeles Lakers 111
Rose didn't do much after he was traded. He ran out his stay in San Antonio. That should not even be on this list.
at the moment that might have felt worse. But taken into context it not as bad since that LA team won it all.
Memphis will get raped in round 2. That's how bad these Spurs got beat. Lowest point in Spurs history no doubt.
one thing is to get beat by prime Shaq/Kobe/Jackson. Another thing by Zbo, the Fat Gasol and Conley
I suppose we'll agree to disagree. I've been watching the Spurs intently since the late 70's and, to me, it's unlikely that any moment will ever be worse than those 2 games in LA in May of 2001.
It's not that the Spurs were beaten in 2001 by a better team; it was that the Spurs were so destroyed, both physically and mentally in that series, that they ultimately quit -- not just in a quarter or for part of a game; they quit on the entirety of the last two games before those games even tipped off.
Even in losing a compe ive series, you always have some basis to think that your team has a chance. In 2001, they weren't just beaten while retaining some hope that the result might change; they were totally dismantled.
I recognize who the 2001 Lakers were, but even their ultimate success that season has never justified the thrashing taken by that Spurs team or their capitulation to it.
This year is the most embarrassing moment in Spurs history. When a 1st seed is about to loose to a 8th seed which was a PO virgin 1 week ago, it is safe to admit the situation is quite ridiculous.
But it is nowhere as painful as 2004 or 2006 when the Spurs were about to repeat.
Unlike 3 or 4 years ago; we all know that, 1st seed or not, these Spurs are not contending anymore... not with such an inconsistent D and undersized/aging frontline.
Embarrassing: yes.
Painfull: not that much
Id say this year is the worst.............. because Memphis called it shot. They said they wanted the Spurs. They knew they could take us out. 1 vs 8.
11) Trading Bruce Bowen and change for Richard Jefferson.
12) Letting Scola go to sign Matt Bonner.
13) Re-signing Matt Bonner.
Yup and the Spurs losing to Blazers 4-3 in 1990 Conference semifinals. Especially when they had 7 point lead with only couple minutes left in game and Rod Strickland threw that infamous no look pass to a player on Blazer team. If I remember correctly they also scored and fouled on that turnover.
Wasn't it also a flagrant foul so the Blazers also got the ball back.
1989 and 1997 records were the best thing that could have happened to the Spurs in my opinion.
Olajuwon taking a steaming on D-Rob's MVP in 1995
Yep I missed 79 ECF my bad....
Rose he was a fan favorite
The Sir Bonner take....CLASSIC LMFAO!!!!!
In no order is this list...enjoy!
