**FYI** Spurs DVD @ HEB

[ZStomp]

I don't think there are two different types of Championship DVDs...can anyone who payed $20 + confirm this?

The main part of the DVD is like One hour and five minutes and according to the cover it is approximately 200 minutes.....over 3 hours.....

I think it is the same DVD. Why would they make 2 DVDs?

My dad spoke with one of the H-E-B managers last week and from what he understands, the manager told him that yes, the heb will feature the 2003 and 2005 seasons, but it will only be the highlights of the season and the playoffs. On the other hand, the one for 24.99 will feature 3 hours of material including all the extras like the lockeroom stuff and the special features. My dad said he will buy the heb one, while I'll buy the infamous 24.99 copy that everyone is after.

So did you get it? Was it different from the HEB one?

Walgreens in Austin has it for 14.99


This is the best produced Spurs Championship Video/DVD IMO.

My only issues with it are that they used high def film for most of it...

I prefer the grainy film when doing recaps because it gives it that classic feel.



My favorite parts of the DVD:
1.The intro where Gervin is talking about all the Spurs players....When he comes to Manu he talks about how hard he plays and then he says, "Besides, Manu can finger roll, I kinda like Manu". Gervin will still be cool when he is 90.

2.Tony Parker's ankle breaker...all the Parker haters need to watch that segment and then STFU forever. It's get a bonus point because it shows a clip of Tony dishing off to Drob at the end of a fast break...we won't ever see that again.

3. Tim Duncan goes home....this is awesome. Just awesome. Actually...this is probably my favorite part of the DVD...and I want to live in the Virgin Islands. If I had been born there you'd have to drag me off that Island...it looks like paradise.

I've never seen as much insight into what Duncan is all about as I did in this segment...Duncan is a special guy.



I got excited about the section on Manu...but it wasn't that good. The narration wasn't that good and it could have had a better selection of his plays...it had some good ones, a couple of his best...but it didn't have all of his best. Not even from the playoffs. I thought Manu deserved better treatment...I mean it's not hard to make an exciting Manu highlight reel...and they didn't do a good job of it.

All in all I give it a .
