R. C. Freaking Buford

No doubt. Hes the GGMOAT

The guys who don't get enough recognition are the scouts... for example, do you know the name of the scout who first identified Kawhi Leonard as a potential draft target? Or who originally started keeping tabs on George Hill, from an obscure college called IUPUI? Me neither. I've looked and can't find the info. Those guys really deserve more recognition...

Yeah I like that!

Yea, let this guy get a few more DWIs.... Won't change his legendary status

Not that your comment is clearly nasty, but I'm tired of all the nasty comments about R. C.'s drinking. That's personal and I have a feeling that lots of STers probably have a few personal problems as well.

Remember what Abraham Lincoln said in response to criticism of General Grant's drinking problem: "Find out what whiskey he drinks and send all of my generals a case, if it will get the same results."

He doesn't get much love from casual Spurs fan, even those who attend the games. Most of them simply don't know his name, much less what his job entails. On the mic, he seems a bit nervous and is soft spoken, but truly humble. Everyone within the organization recognizes and appreciates his work.

What are you, his PR guy? Give me a break.

Pop called him the brains of the operation which is a huge compliment.

CIA POP, TBH.

I dunno. The KIngs got a second rounder from the Spurs for a corpse.

I even saw Buford attend d'league games last season when they sent Anderson for weeks and weeks. There was a month he won Player of the month and I remember specifically seeing RC in a game. I suppose watching for himself how he was doing, bc stats can be empty in lower leagues, and I would not be surprised if he spotted the gem that is Simmons there.

I was surprised to see RC in that game since it's not like he was going to be there to show "support" like other players do.

Also, give credit for to Burford for how they managed they 4th wing situation. Spurs were strapped for cash but they got 3 different players who can all play and were counting on at least one of them being serviceable for the season, but it turns out all 3 can play: Simmons/Anderson/Butler, and they got Butler for cheap too.

HH37 puttin' in OT.

Been wanting him to do a podcast with Woj but I guess we'll have to settle with his interview during All Star Weekend:
