tough to do with both parents working because of the high cost of insurance these days
David Robinson is the main reason that I stated watching the spurs when I was growing up. He is a class act and we were lucky to have him as a spur for life.
tough to do with both parents working because of the high cost of insurance these days
had spurs had a team david robinson would have lots of les
vinny delgo was on the team for heaven sake
big dog or carr
sean was great for a couple of years but still no teir one star
then their was the point guard postion aj who could not make an outside shot if his life depended on it
then lets talk about the crazy coaches he had
David Robinson was a taller Dwight Howard with more athleticism, skills and humility.
david robonson and howard do not belong in the same sentence every
Could never look at him the same after Hakeem sodomized him on national TV tbh.....still, a nice guy.
this thread is more examples of why this forum is a laughing stock now.
Freaking pathetic.
Great player, nice guy, and the reason I became a Spurs fan
But he was a pussy, admit the truth Spur fans
I like pussies
Robinson was a terrific player, he was what Kevin Garnett was to the Timberwolves and in the end his loyalty gave him 2 les and countless runs. Truth is no matter how many good or solid Spurs teams there were nobody was going to Usurp Chicago during their runs and Houston was stacked.
Regardless still a great player, not just a nice guy but a first ballot HOF player and better than ANY C out there today! Give us another D ROB! I would take it.
The Admiral is the reason I'm a Spurs fan. Loved his at ude and his game. 2003 is still my favorite le.
Drob founded a capital investment group w/ a former Goldman Sachs investment banker
IDGAF what tiny percentage they give to "charity"
Vulture biz like this is exactly what is WRONG w/ the US economy
And anyone involved in it is the ENEMY...
WTH do you think everything costs so damn much ?!?
So these do nothing companies can continue to create ever larger windfalls and returns for their elite investors
You've got an entire nation counting on ever rising home values as a source of retirement income
WTF kinda fiscal sanity is that?!?
Rant off

To be fair he did much better than Kobe when he was the lone star. Stick a Shaq/Pau and Duncan next to them they ended up with amazingly good careers.
Unlike Tim, David never had winners like Kerr, Horry, Manu, Barry, Tony & Bowen.
David on the other hand had born losers on his team tbh.
This is what people fail to realize. Spurs had Elliott and Rodman as their best player next to Robinson in his prime. And the drop was considerable after that.
Robinson had his best success when he had mings for those two years before mings injured himself severely in a pickup game. Robinson rookie year, Spurs lost two 3OT games to Portland at Portland (the eventually WC champs), honestly the Spurs should have beat them. Pair Robinson with Duncan in the prime of his career, and he would have had multiple championships, like 4 or 5.
And for the Hakeem series, people fail to mention that the Dream totally did the same thing to Shaq the next series. Even Shaq said that Hakeem took his ass to school. He just played out of his mind during that playoff run.
Because some choose not to worship the ground D-Rob walks on?
You whiny, obese jeeb
Can I see your papers?
Come get them yourself cool guy. Let me know when in Salt Lake.
Sure...under the condition he was politically incorrect, since people like DRob and Pop are not.
No, because every thread devolves into trolling and petty insults. For every 1 sentence of basketball discussion, you get 4 that are almost exclusively talking. You don't like D-Rob? Awesome. But the attempt at humor and subsequent off-color jokes to tear him down are unnecessary. If you were actually funny it would be different, but the sarcasm/backhanded compliments come off as y and not humorous
You can't be serious.
Pussies don't play with nerve damage and a back so bad they can barely walk or stand up straight after a game. Pussies retire early.
Pussies don't put up with cheapskate bull owners that don't get them any help while carrying a team of NBDL level talent into the playoffs year after year. Pussies hold out, demand a trade, and / or badmouth their teammates in the press.
Pussies don't battle Shaq one on one for years. Pussies call in sick or play hack a shaq.
Pussies don't take a beating like Hakeem gave David in the '95 playoffs and acknowledge they were outplayed. Pussies make excuses.
Robinson had his (limited) shortcomings as a player, but as a man, teammate, ambassador for the game, and face of San Antonio on the global stage, there was nobody better.
Couldn't have said it better....are we really bashing David Robinson now?
Wow...
Drob is the epitome of what you would call a professional. He's donated so much to the city of San Antonio. Heck I remember when he put that new court outside the boys and girls club. Regardless if you thought he didn't show up in certain situations over the years, he still treated the game and those who played in it with respect. While u have some detailing their careers and asking how in the world they're sons can follow what they did, you have drob thanking everyone who helped him along the way. The man had class and served his country. What a role model to look up to in this day and age. Haters gonna hate I guess. Awesome interview! Thanks for the vid!
