Is that why you never sent me the analytics?Selling SpursTalk. Sounds like y'all boys got trolled.
Somewhere I read about the stretch 4 evolving into the playmaking 4...
Which is exactly what Kyle Anderson is being developed into. His speed and quickness limitations are mitigated, while his pace and bbiq are being emphasized. Also he's shown to be adept enough on defense for switches, and his agility and savvy is an edge against bigger pfs and centers.
With the same way Kawhi was given tools every year to become the player he is today, KA is following the same path. And Murray's road is just beginning.
3 years from now we'll have a fading prime Lma, in prime KL, DG and maybe Simmons, beginning prime Ka.. and seasoned vet 22 year old pg ready to start.
The bigs moving forward are still a huge ? But we have some great ingredients post big 3.
Your welcome.

The tim duncan era has been amazing.
I became a spurs fan when d rob was drafted. Huge d rob fan. Became used to the spurs getting waxed year in and out in the playoffs and took on a kobe bryant type perspective as a fan. I wanted d rob to get his stats and achieve notoriety.
I actually was pissed when duncan was drafted because i knew he would steal d robs spotlight. I actually called for pops head immediately when he named himself head coach. Never have i been so wrong.
20 years removed and i am 100 times a bigger fan of duncan than i ever was of d robs. Huge change of heart and perspective watching the goat and his committment to winning. Spurs fans have been the most spoiled fans over the last 20 years. Its been continual excellence from day 1.
The above is equally applicable to manu. Gonna be an equally sad day when he retires.
Thank you duncan. Your example molded the shape and thought process of the whole spurs organization and many a fan who was more player oriented instead of team oriented.

I debated posting at all because of the other quality threads that have been great to read during the offseason. Didn't want to take the focus off the very good posters keeping those threads going. Keep it up.
I'm still holding out hope that Duncan plays one more year. One more year of the Big Three would be amazing. Even if Duncan plays 10 minutes a night, it'd be worth it for one more season in the sun. But if the wheels have fallen off, the wheels have fallen off. Being able to have watched every game of his career has been a joy. I honestly don't think that any fan of any sport of any era has experienced as entertaining of a ride as being a Spurs fan the last 20 years. Duncan leading a rebel ABA outfit from South Texas to five NBA championships with sustained success despite the devastation of Game 6, .4, The Foul, etc. has been a ride too preposterously joyous for even the rosiest of storybooks. Thanks again, TD.
I would have given my left nut for one le after how much 1995 hurt, and man, the AT&T Center has five banners now. How unreal is it to watch a le contender every year since 1989-90? (save 1996-97 after David fvcked his back and broke his foot). And they're not in a full rebuild after losing either Robinson or Duncan. They're still going to be a really good team next year. To have one down year in twenty seven and to still have a bright future? More than I could have ever dreamed of back when I first started following the team in a 3/4 empty Hemisfair Arena watching Alfrederic Hughes embarrass himself on the floor.
Pretty sure the same people that gave Wojo this information and let him break the story last week. Although, obviously timvp went into greater detail.
I'm not sure, but the finger pointing in the sky has as much to do with his family (mother and father) as acknowledging the crowd.
Great to see you post again, timvp. You and Kori have been sorely missed around these parts. Hope all is well in life and with the fam.
With this thread I know the inevitable is almost here. A part of me doesn't want to believe it though.....
TiMVP with the great post as always. Reason I came to this website in the first place!
As presently configured (and assuming you're right about TD) how do you see the Spur's outlook for next season?
The Trolling
I'm afraid to refresh SpursTalk today. Every time I do, I brace myself for a heart sinker.
Same. I even regret checking my phone, as I get ESPN updates...
Just posted to tip my cap for correctly spelling "lede." Very few people realize it is "lede" and not "lead" in this context. You, sir, know your .
What I'm thinking. Not ready for it to be the end but least it sounds like PATFO have been trying to give him plenty of time.I don't know how it would work contract/cap wise, but is it possible for Tim/Spurs to have a planned way for Tim to play half the year? Maybe retire and then unretire at the all-star break if he felt up to it? I know...I'm in denial.
Selling SpursTalk
Well I sure as did.
So if Tim staying means Patty going... is Manu going to be coming off the bench for Danny, or Tony? Or is Jacques Vaughn going to come back for a min contract?
thanks, tbh

Great post.
Best OP in years.
Thats you timvp!
timvp - Don't ever leave again.
Nice read. I agree with the Manu bit. Taking it further he will probably do more to fill the seats than anyone. Too bad that he didn't have a shoe contract. Hopefully Pop will use him more this year.

Hard to take you seriously when you say like this. I think we've had some good discussions on here, but the quality of the average thread is beyond awful.
