Wow nice find dude-props!!!! now we just need the houston one-pretty sure they were in their whites/home but thats great to see cuz i missed that one. Man, robby was the man, sigh, if only we had a 28 year old robby on the team now....I mean honestly how much would we rape every team out there? Badly i think. That video also is crazy because it reminds us all of how great TD was when he was a youngin.... in age, lol. He moved so amazingly, so fluidly, just awesome to see. Robby always was more-boom im driving and there's no way your stopping me, td is more fluid.

I recall him threatening fisticuffs with Joe Smith in the '99 playoffs.

At that point, I knew SA was winning the le.

Here's another clip of Robinson not backing down...most of yall will probably remember this too...fast forward to 2:10 since its part of a longer video about garnett

LOL, I remember that game. I also remember that fool Brian Grant...loser.

This is my favorite Spurs-Blazers clip though

I think I was at this game...mid court Rob went nutty and got in ref face yelling. He immidiatly got thrown out of game. He ran off court, and some may not know this, took his jersey off half way running to locker room. He got a standing ovation.

Drob never backed down, when challenged with a physical confrontation he never backed down from anyone, not even Shaq.

And his primary way of scoring was drawing a foul in the paint.

His career as Superstar ended because he played through a hernia in the Olympics.


Drob never deserved the soft label, there's nothing soft about Naval officer training...at least not when compared to most college basketball programs.



He didn't back down from Hakeem in 95 either...there's just wasn't a whole lot he could do to stop Hakeem...there wasn't anything thing anyone could do when Hakeem was in his zone...a lot of times there wasn't anything two men could do...the dreamshake could not be stopped, the physics to stopping it were basically impossible for the human body to achieve, you just had hope Hakeem missed it.


Drob never deserved the soft label, and he never backed down...he got passive sometimes, which is probably good considering if he really hated falling short he would have bailed on the incompetent FO that wasted his prime...




But anyway, yeah DRob got into it serious with Harvey Grant. I recall him getting into something with Shawn Bradly once upon a time too.


And Drob spent the rest of his career whupping up on Karl Malone's ass in game after that elbow incident. I think the 97-98 playoffs were the last time David Robinson lost to Malone and the Jazz...for the rest of his career. And I remember him holding Malone scoreless in his final season of 2003...


Drob always attempted to conduct himself first and foremost as an officer and gentleman, who showed respect to others without having to be told to or having it earned, that's the real path of a man. It's a much harder one to walk as well...
