Welcome!
a fan from Germany doesn't root for Nowitzki?
Welcome!
there are many German fans rooting for other teams ... only after their favorite team is eliminated from the playoffs we non-Dallas German fans root for Dirk ... last year he finally did it ... now may Dallas rot in
I wouldn't have shed a tear if OKC had won that series. Also preferred Miami to Dallas.
Dirk deserved his 'ship, but I can't stand that Terry mofo.

Welcome! Welcome! Welcome!
Welcome to SpursTalk.
90% of the people on this board are full of , but it seems you are already beginning to figure that out.Haha, thanks to all of you!Welcome! Welcome! Welcome!
I like Dirk. He is a very good player and has a great personality. But unfortunately, even after winnig the championships last year, people here in Germany don't pay more attention to him or to this sport in generel I guess.
For example, there is no TV Channel broadcasting games of the nba.
And compared to Duncan, I have to say that Timmy is definitely the better all-around player. Better defense, much better rebounder and has the better low-post skills. But of course Dirk has the better/more consistent jump shot.
So I like both, but Timmy of course is my favorite power forward.
Wow man great to hear that. Welcome to the boardHaha, thanks to all of you!

One thing I need to inform you that do not ever try to start thread which is praised to Timmy. It's because someone will either block your user account or doesn't give you sufficant privilege to start thread on ST anymore.
Welcome.
Germany has a basketball league? I kid, i kid...
I never got why Dirk didn't have more effect on sport's popularity in Germany. I mean we have Kopitar in NHL and hockey's popularity went through the roof over here. Basketball is already very popular here, if we had a player like Nowitzki...
There is bad kind of boring and there is good kind of boring. The Spurs are a good kind of boring.And that's why I also started to watch different teams with different playing-styles.
Unfortunately, you have to watch most of the games at night because of the time shift. But I really liked it.
So at the end of the month Februrary 2010 I watched my first spurs game. The schedule said Phoenix-San Antonio, the highlight-game that day. I didn't know too much about Phoenix. Just that one guy, Steve Nash, one of the best point guards ever. But the Spurs where mysterious too me. So I informed myself about this franchise and saw that they won 4 championships in the past decade.So I really was impressed. I thought, for achieving this, you obviously need a pretty good squad. So I was curious about this team. When I took a look at the roster I didn't know any player, except for Tony Parker (because of his relationship with Eva Longoria) and Tim Duncan. So as I watched the game I was just impressed about this team, especially about Tim Duncan. I loved his post-moves, his scoring ability and defensive presence. After the game I saw that Duncan already was 33 years old and as I took a look at his stats from his previous years I was just disappointed that I missed his prime-years!
So while watching more and more games, I really fell in love with this team and I enjoyed watching Manu Ginobili. I watched a lot of games with different teams, but I had to say that this guy impressed me most. His passion for the game, court vision and skills are at an unreal level imo.
So I said to my friends that I started enjoying this sport. And they asked me which team I like and I said San Antonio. And they were very surprised. They said this is a boring team, without athletic-superstars and they have just boring players. They said, the Miami Heat, Orlando Magic or Lakers are great teams. They play spectaculare basketball.
I responded that this are great teams, but imo the spurs play basketball just how basketball should be played. With passion, defense, skills and efficiency and not just with spectaculare offensive plays.
So I watched the playoffs and I was disappointed that they lost to the Phoenix Suns in the second round. But I found a great team, a great franchise to root for!
I spend much time in here since last year and really liked the discussions and grades (after the spurs-games).
So now I decided to also finally sign up
Hope the Spurs do well at this years playoffs!
(and sorry for my bad english)
welcome to ST man!
Ich war Austauschueler in Berlin vor 16 Jahren und ich hatte ein Freund dass fuer die Supersonics erfreuert. Er war ein Jahre frueher in Seattle Austauschueler.
Spinner in english translates roughly into idiots/morons, etc.
willkommen! I have only been to Germany once (Munich) but I loved it. I've a lot of friends from Hamburg too. As I am an American in Ukraine, I hope you, like me, will soon be staying up very late to watch the Spurs in the playoffs live! It makes ever late spring game difficult for work the next day, but its worth it when our Spurs win!o all.
Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Thomas and I'm from Germany and Fan of the San Antonio Spurs but just since 3 years.
Before that, I didn't really care too much about basketball. But then, one of my friends bought the League Pass and also offered to me to also watch some games. So I decided to do so and the first game I ever saw was Dallas (becaus of Nowitzki of course) vs. Utah in the 2009-10 season. It was a pretty good game from Nowitzki and I was impressed by how different nba-basketball was compared to the beko-bbl (the german league of basketball). So, you know basketball isn't really very popular in Germany and the arenas aren't as big as in the U.S. So also the atmosphere isn't always that great.
But somehow, by watching more and more nba-games with the league pass of my friend, I started to really enjoy this sport more and more. And that's why I also started to watch different teams with different playing-styles.

Well let me say there is a fine line (actually not even that fine) between starting a thread about Tim and starting a mul ude of threads with the same content and subject in the a very short time span (sounds familiar Rapper?Hm, ok. Why? Are there already enough threads which are praised to Timmy?
Quality always trumps quan y, and as in every other forum it is wise to check if a recent similar thread already exists and to post in it instead of starting a new one.
Otherwise there are not many rules here in ST.
Oh and before I forget: Willkommen!
