Who the voted for Sam Hinkie?

[Kawhitstorm]

Should be stripped for guaranteeing Bonner's contract then cutting Butler.

[FromWayDowntown]

Who the voted for Sam Hinkie?

That's awesome -- 3 different people gave Hinkie some consideration, including a 2nd place vote.

[K...]

So if I read this correctly, olshey got more first votes, but Buford won 2nd place votes. Also I read Buford voted olshey.

Yeah. Am I missing something?

“I think RC can say thanks to LaMarcus and David (West) for those executive of the year awards,” Parker said. “I felt like before, Pop definitely should have won one of those years and I’m surprised Bob (Bass) never won the executive (award). But I think back in the day, the Spurs didn’t get that much respect. We had to earn that respect. Now everybody respects the Spurs, so they don’t forget RC. That’s just my personal opinion.

“I felt like Pop and Bob should have won before, but it’s just like that. Everybody who won deserves it, that’s for sure, but I felt like we’ve been a great team for a long time, and Pop and Bob, they never won it, so that’s weird. And now RC, he gets all the awards. It’s great because he deserves it, too, but he can say thank you to LaMarcus and David.”

Great news and well deserved. Hopefully Spurs can at least get past the ing thunderefs now.

Myers with Golden State only got 3rd place? I thought they were "light years ahead" of everyone else. Hmmm, 'guess not.
