We Back!

[dbreiden83080]

So I am guessing everyone is pretty happy around here today LOL!!

[dbreiden83080]

OMG.

Something about those ping pong balls and awesome bigs in SA..

Pretty insane..

[dbreiden83080]

I had to look down with each new card revealed because you can see the logo before the name was announced!!!!

It is funny.. Once it was down to the last 2 I just kind of knew the Spurs were getting him. Felt fated like in 1997..

So in 2050 Peter Holt III………

[99 Problems]

One of the great days

[Sugus]

note: we have about 50 million in cap space, the Hornets pick, the Chicago pick, the 2 unprotected ATL picks, the Boston pick swap and like 7 or more future 2nd round picks *insert evil laugh here*

Didn't you hear we have the Worst Future in the Division tho???? We're ed I tell ya!!!!!!!

[Holt's Cat]

Third time the Spurs win the lotto with relocation looming and an all time great big man talent the consensus #1.

Do the Spurs move downtown again? Whatever arena dream can be conceived, it can be achieved.

[thiste]

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?



Watched it live. Still can't believe it.

It’s hard to overstate how great the FO has been since they got on board and picked a firm direction. They have made savvy trades, collected assets and put spurs in a premier spot to get lucky and they did.

of a job and now it’s on them to see it through and capitalize

Brian Wrong though amirite?

[Purple & Gold]

Congratulations and welcome back!!

What was so awesome about winning the top pick was that I had convinced myself this was going to be a debate over which "other" guy we needed to select. Therefore, winning it gave me actual shock and goosebumps. Really happy this morning with taking that approach.

[Allan Rowe vs Wade]

Speaking of TP, today is his birthday.

May 17, 1982 (age 41 years)

after the spurs got wemby, tp went outside to the driveway to see if he could dunk

[rascal]

This is ing great. Imagine the destiny of our franchise depends on the 10ths of seconds that dude takes or not to decide when he grabs 5 shaking ping pong balls.

And I love how some other dude in the background semi-yells "San Antonio".

Orlando had 6 of the remaining 11 balls for the final winning combination and the Spurs still got their ball picked for the final winning combination.

Is Victor the single most valuable asset in all of basketball? Is there a single player you’d trade him for straight up? Is there even a realistic trade package in the universe that the Spurs would take for Victor?

Considering he wants to be a Spur, there probably isn’t a trade package in the multiverse, huh?

[emanueldavidginobili]

Still can’t believe it. I absolutely lost it when I saw the Hornets logo. Randomly woke up at like 3AM and just started thinking about it for about 10 minutes before falling back asleep. Spurs about to get the most publicity in their franchise history now tbh. Especially with social media as big as it is now.

All that litterature we wrote for months swept in an instant by the Charlotte logo.

congrats Spurm fans, this is what you deserve, at least the ones who stayed loyal, don't pretend spurforum traffic didnt drop off 80% the last five years


this isnt tim duncan or 1997 anymore tho, Wemby will play at least seven years in san antonio but if he's not winning les he will bounce. being a euro isnt enough to keep these cats loyal for their whole careers anymore in todays nba.

it wont be with Pop but Spur will be back in the NBA finals before the end of the decade, it remains to be seen whether they win but they will find a way there in a year jokic gets injured or tired. no one that good in the east anymore so it would be a W if Spur finds a real point guard anytime soon and not all the bad ones since Parker left

Yes
No
No
And no there isn't..

Random ;

1) losing ing sucked balls and was painful as - losing!

2) secretly rooting for losses was confusing and maddening

3) everyone had their little clues in their life and odd events leading up to the lottery and of course a lot of that was just plain wishful thinking lol - here is mine:

a) wife was peculiar all day and recounted that the previous day- she had some funny signs…i ask like what?
(This was in the early morning hours - tuesday lottery day) (wife knows zero about spurs/lottery/victor w)
…she says - like if im watching tv or scrolling online - the moment i glance at screen a number appears like 7-7-7
Or 3-3-3…maybe we should buy a lotto ticket?
(I think to myself - “yeah ok blah blah”

B) later the same morning - (she works nights) she snaps up from bed turns around and says look! (Pointing at clock)
It is 11:11 am - i look up from my desk/reading- tell her its early- you can sleep more

C) a bit later -long story short- same scenario- snaps up- and looks and its 1:11. (Wtf?)

D) finally, a bit later- ive run out for errands - come home- shes in da shower- comes out - scurries around - in/out of rooms- gathering stuff for shift- small talk etc….
Im reading stuff online- she pops in and says - what time is it - oh look! (Its 3:33pm)

im now stumped…thinking - …i was happier with number 1’s… maybe #3 pick lol

[Silentbob]

Spurs got the combinations for 1st, 3rd and the 4th pic while charlotte got 2nd and the redraw for the 4th.

14, 5, 8 & 2
13, 14, 1 & 11
2, 12, 7 & 3

tempted to use these numbers on the lottery
