"6th seed"
Ingram is also looking real good, bro![]()
A wonder what the ratings are in this lame ass . I also wonder what the odds are that Jim comes out of the closet tonight confirming what I always knew.
"6th seed"
Ingram is also looking real good, bro![]()
Respect to TD GOAT PF who played a bunch at center ...
But not sure if having that retirement on the same night as big Cowbooys game was great planning ...
Heck, I am not sure doing on a sunday night was wise during football season, period made much sense.
He deserves better, tbh
NBC flexed the game to Sunday night.
Or he doesn’t give a single unlike some other guy who made last season all about him![]()
-First to win a chip
-First to win an MVP
-First to have jersey hung on the rafters after retiring during the same year as Kirby
.....Kirby meanwhile shopping for tampons furious why he can't sow a seed to reap him a boy.

Not saying he cares ...but his fans wanted to honor him ...
Not saying I'm a duncan fan, but I would have watched ...if I wasn't in Cowboys mode ...
Sure the game was flexed....but most likely it would be a big game tonight. It's all good. I am sure it was classy ...and he appreciated it and the fans got to show him love...
What is lame is seeing Avery and Bowen next to Tim in the rafters ...so should we retire Derek Fisher and Coop-a-loop?!
Definitely DFish imo
I loved dfish, but he is not rafters worthy neither was Byron or Cooper or Rambis. And neither is Avery or Bowen ...
Manu and Tony absolutely and maybe Kiwi someday but Avery and Bruce? Spur organization reaching ...
we wont be sneaking
Without Fisher you're light five.
Nate Silver ranks the Spurs 4th all time when it comes to retiring player jerseys. Silver factors in metrics such as win shares, PER, and other stats when it comes to retiring jerseys. Only 3 other organizations are better at retiring jersey's than the spurs and they are the Celtics,Lakers,Sixers. If you read the article you will see there have been players who are worse than Avery and Bruce that have been retired by other organizations. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features...rsey-rankings/
This thread is sh** even by downstairs 'standards'.
Interesting read, thanks and Bowen is more deserving than Avery of course ...but still shaky imho
Bowen is Pop's favorite role player of all-time; Avery was the heart & soul of the team (ala Gaymond) including the '98-'99 season when he saved Pop's career by rallying players behind him following a player's only meeting.![]()
Avery was the Spurs all-time leader in assist, it's not like he didn't have the numbers unlike Fisher.![]()
BTW the article you posted .. makes allusion to the fact Spurs are less picky about retiring a jersey ...and that it's Duncan that moved them from 9th to 4th on that list ...you eliminate Bowen and Avery my guess they are leap Sixers and maybe even Boston
When Evita/Enrique retire, the Spurs will overtake the Sixers despite having been founded 17 years later.![]()
No, they just add their career value over replacement (VORP) for the rankings. They just mentioned that the AVERAGE VORP would be higher if you took out Avery/Bowen but the rankings aren't based on averages otherwise the Celtics would be lower than the Sixers.
Duncan also gives the Spurs an average of 31.3 VAR per honored player, which ranks fourth among all franchises — and is higher than that of both Boston (24.6) and Philly (29.5).
