Don't feed that troll by responding to his weak tweet. You are making him money, and encouraging him to make similar takes without substance or support.

I don't hate the Spurs, tweople. I respect their greatness. I just dread another NBA Finals with them in it.

Yes, San Antonio is one of the top 5 NBA teams ever. But do you really want another Finals watching Mopesy and Floppsy?
Give him a piece of your mind, Spurs fans!

Is this the guy who owns Reilly Auto Parts? If not, I never heard of him.
I heard him on the Herd, guys an idiot.
Its fine if he doesn't like the spurs, but the reason he finds them boring is because he says that the spurs don't run, all manu does is flop and all tim does is whine
I highly doubt he watches any of the spurs games this year
Why would someone who is a fan of the NBA dread any finals with them in it? I don't think these people are watching the games. SAS are the highest scoring team in the NBA right now.. The days of 80-75 are gone.. What is wrong with these people??
Another example of someone who doesn't watch any Spur games. That notion is even more pathetic now that they are playing the NBA's most promoted team.
they are boring because they whine and flop and aren't flashy on offense...oh wait
Nugget Fan hates the Spurs? Shocking.
So who does he like and why is my question? These reporters are trolling..
Oh , he's a nugget fan.
No wonder.
Never heard of him.
I'd like to keep it that way.
However, I'm glad you started this thread. I wanted to talk about Steve Kerr and how he is over the top for the Thunder. Like almost all analysts/former NBA players who seem to have all the solutions when sitting behind the courtside broadcast table, they didn't have any of those answers while they were in charge of a franchise. Mark Jackson has no answers, Kerr had none in Phoenix, JVG had none in Houston, only Doug Collins gets my respect as someone who's comments meant something as he put his ideas to work and, with help of a torn ACL, did something. The rest of these ass clowns are no different than you or I making adjustment suggestions. JVG is 2nd best though, he's got some inside takes that pan out quite often that no one else mentions during the game. Hubie is ok, but he's never seen a timeout he didn't like.
^That said, Reilly is just trolling. He likes riling people up, no pun intended.
When he wrote for SI, he was a top five sports writer in the country. Since he took the big money with ESPN, he started going downhill and officially jumped the shark a couple years ago. I don't even read his stuff anymore and I used to be a big fan, tbh.
I'm in Denver at the moment, I will leave a nice package in the bathroom here as a token of my appreciation before heading to the airport in a few minutes.
Yeah, Reilly won National Sportswriter of the Year like about 5-6 times in a row. If you really haven't heard of him, you haven't been paying attention.
No bro that's Bill O'Reilly. This guy hating on the Spurs was the Heat's center in the early 90s.
The last SI article I read was "Air Apparent" about David Robinson back in the 90's and one by Jack McCallum.
Never had a subscription. I'm a Field and Stream guy.
Ho cares what the haters think. They serve a purpose also. What frustrates me moe is these bet hedgers and spur haters chasing after the spurs wagon. Shout out to all the true spur faithful![]()
As did I, I usually looked forward to getting to the end of my SI magazines on the ter just so I could read Life of Reilly but since the move to espn he's been a clown in my eyes.
You didn't read the amazing piece SI did on Duncan a couple weeks ago?
So he won't watch them in the Finals. Damn.
TBH...who is Rick Reilly? Never heard of the dude. First person that came into my head was the guy who does Spurs game with The Hair.
They are the 2nd best franchise in NBA history. LA is number 1, Boston is number 3.Yes, San Antonio is one of the top 5 NBA teams ever. But do you really want another Finals watching Mopesy and Floppsy?
They guy obviously has not watched a Spurs game this year. He needs to retire.
I couldn't agree more. Reilly wrote some really compelling, even moving pieces for SI in 'Life of Reilly,' but ever since he joined ESPN he has just been an embarrassment. Its hard to equate in my mind the amazing writer I used to enjoy reading so much (I even had the collection of his best pieces when I was younger) with the idiot ESPN personality of present day. Quite a shame. I was bummed when he left SI but I never could have imagined how much respect I would lose for the guy, much less how I would end up disliking him.
obv guy is a total whack job, but its not worth it to get butt hurt over. he hates the spurs wgaf. guy needs to stick to espn homecoming segments tho.
