2014
Thanks for the 2014 championship Boris. While Timmy Duncan was epic in OT in game 6 in OKC and Kiwi had a terrific clutch block on westbrook and all... Boris had one of the most impressive games of his career (granted I watched him for only a portion of said career) in that game 6 and had over 20 points... Amazing talent but laissez faire... Still a very, very interesting player personality and fun to watch. He was enjoyable when he was having a good game.
ThanksBorisssssssssssssssss
When he was engaged and locked in, he was scary for opponents, because he had such a broad skill set to deploy. Unfortunately, that was far from often. He infuriated fanbases everywhere he played, causing PHO fans to refer to him as Doris Meow. The closest analogy that I can find was Bison Dele, another very talented player who had basketball about 5th on his list of interests.
2014 Diaw is one of my favorite players of all time. So versatile and efficient.
Bummer. Cheers to Bobo and everything he did for the Spurs
Bummer... Spurs should have never traded him over signing Pau Gasol.
The consequences of his trade our still being felt.
He stopped caring after 2014. Pop tried for two seasons to re-motivate him, and nothing worked.
True. I think Boris was on the downswing anyways. HIs following seasons were not as good as 2014 and he was satisfied and happy... his hunger for the game was satiated so to speak. He still had talent tho.
I wonder, in the world of hypotheticals, if you switch out Boris with Gasol in 2014, does that team win a championship? I don't think so.
Thank you for the 2014 Championship. Very talented and very high bball IQ. I wish we had him earlier in his career. He was one of the best passing big men. I think he had a great career and enjoyed until it lasted
One of my favourite Spurs of all-time.
Can we get a big three team of Manu, Bobo and Tim?
One of greatest fat guys to ever play the game.
He wasn't the same after '14. I loved the motivated Diaw, but the unmotivated version only hurt the Spurs. He was horrible for Utah the next season.
And, yeah, one of my favorite Spurs in '13 and '14. One of the X Factors that made those teams so dangerous.
they'd tear that joke league apart
the beautiful game
Thanks Boris for being such a great talent, entertaining player and giving Spurstalk the best animated gif ever!
When the spirit moved him, one of my all-time favorite players to watch. The '12-'14 Spurs were the best thing I've ever watched in sports and after the biggest 3, he was right there with Green for me . . . and no, I didn't leave Leonard out because of what transpired over the past year. I'd have said the same thing previous to that.
Au Revoir, Boris.
The REAL MVP of the '14 WCF, tbh.
One of my favorite spurs of all time, im gonna miss him.
We should build a statue for him
...a golden espresso machine
One of my favorite players ever. I was skeptical of the signing based on how bad he was in Charlotte but damn he was an amazing fit here. I was so impressed by his defense on LeBron in the 2013 Finals.
remember, he came into NBA as thin PG, explains passing and seeing the court, great BB IQ
