i've been flip flopping since the start of the series and while i started to root for the spurs, i'm sorry, i know there are lots of nice spurs fans here but there are too many homers who will defend absolutely any kind of b.s. and talk smack about the mavs rather than defend their ty arguments that i just can't take it anymore. other than d'antoni and marion, it's not like i dislike the suns. kidn of like how lots of spurs fans can't stand cuban or the mavs fans, same reason i 'm rooting for the suns although in the end, during the finals, i'm rooting for the pistons, regardless of which team comes out of the west
Have you visited the Suns board lately?![]()
Dear ponky,
Thank you for your thoughtful letter. Please give thanks to Mark Cuban for paying me millions of dollars to play for a team who as acutally accomplished
something in the playoffs and allowing me to watch his team choke 2 years in a row.
Best regards from the second round,
Finley
What has Finley accomplished in his time with the Spurs that he didn't already do with the Mavs?
I never said Finley helped accomplished anything. I am referring to overall success between to the two teams.
lol, you're probably right, i'm trying my best to resist, dang i feel like kerry in '04!

D'Antoni I can understand, but why do you dislike Marion? He's one of their players I actually like. The only Suns player I dislike is Amare.
EDIT> By the way, I would never defend what Horry did. That was just plain wrong. The stuff Bruce did? A bit chippy, but I don't think he was trying to hurt anyone. That's just Bruce being Bruce.
eh, i'll be very happy for finley if he wins a ring but he hasn't and with the spurs, he hasn't been any further in the playoffs than when he was a maverick....now, this may change with this year's playoffs but it's too early to tell and this series is too close for me to decide what will happen. so while the spurs have certainly accomplished a lot more than the mavs in the past, the other poster is correct, it doesn't help finley at all, he doesn't have a ring yet.
i can see why you dislike amare but to me, he comes off as just mentally immature, like a young kid in a man's body so i can forgive him when he opens his mouth. i can appreciate marion's hard work ethic but i get tired of hearing about it all the time, like how he's under apperciated and doesn't quite share the spotlight that nash and amare share...and i think being a multiple (three-time?) all-star, he just becomes very ineffective when nash isn't in the game, and sometimes when he IS in the game. like i stated in some other thread, i think 99% of my dislike of the suns is because of d'antoni...marion and amare share the other 1% so it's not a huge factor for me.
I can't stand D'Antoni -- even if he once was a Spur.
I'm still cool with Avery.![]()
yeah i can't say i'm a fan of bruce but i didn't think what he did deserved any kind of punishment, it wasn't a big deal, neither the nash groin or amare heel thing. but horry, wtf? i know he's easygoing or whatever with that big smug grin on his face all the time, but of all the spurs, he's probably the only one that would do such a thing, it didn't really surprise me much. i still think even with the hard foul, if he had at least gone over and helped nash up, the whole thing would've been quelled.
yeah, just like i can't stand antoine walker, even if he was a mav, ugh!
lol, that's cool about avery, he deserves to be liked by the spurs fans...just like i GUESS don nelson should be liked by mavs fans!![]()

So are you turning tricks on the corner or what?![]()
lol, i know it's weird, i'm a night owl, i'm self employed as a web designer and classical musician and i prefer to sleep during the day, it's way too hot here in texas to be walking around after noon
holy cow, i actually did write joB, dang i stepped into that one, nice
what instrument do you play?
![]()
I still think its funny that everyone says how dirty the SPurs are with how many dirty ass elbows and holds the Suns put on the whole game.
violin...and viola but lots of people aren't familiar with it, kind of like the violin
Graduated from where?
nah, spurs aren't dirty and bowen's two incidents didn't require any suspensions....while i like the suns in this series, they shouldn't whine so much, just put it all on the floor, they're too good a team to let it devolve into press speeches
Just messin' with ya.
three colleges for undergrad, u.t. austin and then manhattan school of music/columbia for two years...i will be graduating from u.t. again later this month, JD (i transferred there from a law school in nyc)
I am a Mavericks fan and can't stand the Spurs when we play them, but I hate the whinning Suns even more. I have really started liking the Spurs once they have grown some balls and started playing tough and aggressive. That check on Nash was AWESOME. Plus Nash flopped.
neat, i was wondering if you ever did a duet with a classical guitarist for juries.
And was wondering if Napoleon Coste would have any sort of music for that?
I have played a piece with guitar once, coached by U.T.'s Adam Holzman. It was a quintet (string quarter and guitar) by Castelnuovo-Tedesco, pretty awesome piece. I like classical guitar a lot but I'm not familiar with a lot of mixed string repertoire including the guitar. I just googled the composer you mentioned because I hadn't heard of him, very interesting. I take it you play the guitar?
