Keep bringing up Heal...it reminds of how right I was about our weak back up shooters situation and perimeter game last year.......Anthony, or should I call you Hedo.
TimVP jumped on me first...when I was saying Scola is more unproven than guys like Malik and Horry, and that his game probably wouldn't transfer to the Spurs.
If he didn't disagree with me then what was he arguing with me about?

One needs a reason?

Dumb@ss, Horry was one of my favorite players of all-time ... even before he was on the Spurs. When the Spurs signed him, I was ecstatic. I thought that it was a fluke that he choked in the playoffs against the Spurs.
But last year proved that it wasn't a fluke. He doesn't have it anymore. It's over. Just like it was time for David Robinson, Sean Elliott and Avery Johnson to move on ... that time is coming for Big Shot Rob.
I don't mind him in spot minutes but I don't want him getting major minutes in fourth quarters. He doesn't rebound well enough to be effective and help win games. It's a damn simple concept.
Now run along and go make up stories about me, Shane.
Where did I say anything about Scola over Horry? Where do you get this stuff?
Link.
Still waiting on that link.
It shall be interesting to see him try to get out of this one.
Things erode over time.
"...and Cardinal gets under Horry for the rebound and scores! Robert was just a hair off on his timing there..."
"...and Horry is lying on the floor with the ball and and softly passes it to nobody in particular...and the Grizzlies have it going the other way."
Forget it, I'm still waiting for his link for me.
And Jim's check.
Etc.
@ Solid D and ChumpDumper.
I'm awaiting Whottt's retirement post.
Gee TimVP, it was awfully hard to scroll down half a page and find your link...
http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/show...?t=6794&page=1
You tell me the purpose of your comments if they were not intended to refute my point that Horry is a better option than an unproven Euro...not to mention the dumbass idea that the Spurs have to choose between Scola and Vet min Horry.
I'll be quite honest with you Chump, your credibility is shot with me....it's not worth the effort to go and find a link that forces you to back track...#1.It's not hard to find you being wrong about something...Charlie. #2.It's not a rare occurence for you to wholesale back track...it's more like a forum regularity. #3.It is a rare occurence for you to come clean on anything even when you are bashed over the head with your own words....Your frequent response is to play up the vague meaning of your words and ignore the veiled intent...you fool no one but yourself... !
If you can't find it, just admit it.
I didn't want just a random link. Show me anywhere where I said I want Scola over Horry for this season.
Just because I tell you that Horry doesn't rebound well enough to play extended minutes in fourth quarters doesn't mean that I go against everything else you've ever thought up.
Bring a take. You're better than this.
P.S.
And since you brought up that post, you never answered whether you want Horry playing the fourth quarters of playoff games.
Question.
P.P.S.
Still waiting on that link.
Damn, LJ -- it's so obvious your hatred of Kirk Penny makes you wrong about Horry,
Recognize.

Um...when and where was the debate about "this" season. I think it's a pretty much a unanimous belief that Scola isn't going to be playing here this season.
And what's in that link is what you "don't" say...that thread was about Scola and when I took issue with some who felt Scola would be an improvement over Horry...and that the belief that we had to choose between the two was incorrect...you seemed to take issue with those points...
So either you think Scola will be a better option...or else you were meandering within a thread without any clear sense of pupose or intent...you tell me which it was....
Well that wasn't what you said initially, and I don't think I've ever made a comment on how many minutes Horry should be getting....To me it's not a matter of how many minutes he gets...it's a matter of when he gets them...I feel, as I did last season, that Malik needs minutes to play out of his clumsiness...I think history shows this to be true.Just because I tell you that Horry doesn't rebound well enough to play extended minutes in fourth quarters doesn't mean that I go against everything else you've ever thought up.
Bring a take. You're better than this.
Depends on the situation and the team we are playing...but put it this way...I almost always want Horry on the court in tight or deciding moments of a game....His basketball IQ doesn't age...he knows how to get the ball into Duncan...and not only does he have a knack for hitting big shots, that will make Duncan's moves in the post easier by clearing out an interior defender...he has a knack for getting the ball in his hands to be able to take those big shots, even though he has never been a main option on his teams....it's more than just luck...the guy is a very smart player and he knows how and when to get the most out of his skill...P.S.
And since you brought up that post, you never answered whether you want Horry playing the fourth quarters of playoff games.
Question.
That's my take...it's very similar to my take on Steve Kerr....that many people thought was stupid...I believe the at ude was..what could a little whiteboy do that Steve Smith couldn't...![]()
LOL...this is great...I can't believe you are attempting to talk to me. Let me remind you of something...you are Buddy Holly LOL. So please shut the up and go die of embarrasment like most any other sane person would if they were you.
You are the only similarity between SR and FSP...you are the universal joke at both boards, is there any admin at those boards who doesn't have your lip prints indelibly tatooed upon their ass, or that hasn't responded to you putting them there with a polite "no thanks"...Trust me...while none of the other posters in this thread may say it...none of them are happy to have you on their side.
Before you attempt to smack me...please remember who you are and how many times you have been given a bleeding ass on every Spurs board in existence...and then go and kill yourself out of shame.
Revisionist historians unanimously agree that all you have said has in essence become fact.

Chain Pullinggg is a specialty in the Forummm, Whottt.
What ever Solid...but you are the one stuck in the past...the same critcisms you guys are aiming at Horry now are the same ones that were made back in 97.
No one was acting like Horry was a huge pick up for LA when West traded for the underachieving malcontent..
The criticisms you guys are making now are the same one people have always made...and he's been slow since he played for LA...he had trouble guarding Drob when Drob was on his last legs...still doesn't change the fact that he plays his best in the most terrifying moments...that's when he stands out the most, that's the only time he stands out...and he doesn't stand out because of some fantastic physical ability...he stands out with brains and guts.
You guys are the ones using cliches...your criticism is very cliched, Rocket fans were saying the same things when they traded him to Phoenix... and it's much the same criticism that I was making of him a decade ago...that's he just not that good.
I think Horry remains a championship acessory...not good enough to be the backbone of a team...but good enough to be a major factor in winning or losing a championship on a team that is close.
I still think that because I haven't seen him fail in that situation with the Spurs yet...the fact that you and the others think he has, the criticism you aim at him...proves that you never understood the nature of what he did in the first place. He's never looked good when viewed in terms of consistent production or every day play. And the perspective in which he has always looked exceptional...well he hasn't been put through that prism yet with the Spurs...hopefully they will give him that opportunity. Not doing so hurts the Spurs more than Horry...he's the one with 5 rings.
I'm gonna be right on this one....just make sure you remember it when I am.

The Filler-Buster!!! The True FSP Treat.
Too bad your ability to google unfunny pictures doesn't translate to you being right or my numerous words being wrong.
Nice basketball take by the way.
I remember a certain thread about Manu vs. Hedo . . .
Ah yes, when I said Hedo might be a better player than Manu if he reaches his potential.
Damn me all to .
Horry's numbers aren't even impressive. Brown averages better #'s than Rob and get's less playing time. I don't know how someone can be this stubborn.
