I thought the Spurs have won a le before with a cover.
Avery was on the cover during the 1999 Finals IIRC.
Aw, .
Well, the 'list' is pretty inconclusive. It sounds impressive until you remember how many covers are printed without any incident befalling the people pictured.
Spurs better make certain that everything gets taken care of tomorrow!!!
Tim Duncan SI Covers for Spurs in the Playoffs? Here's a couple:
-May 31st 1999: "Substance Over Style"

-June 9th 2003: "Who's Going to Stop Tim Duncan?"

We did alright in those years...
i think we can get Jim to remedy this situation. Jim, who is your money on?
That won't stop the Spurs.
"jinxes" are satanic-believing bull !! God loves the Spurs and He will will take care of satan !!!!!!!!!!!

I don't believe in this bull .... unless it's Jim.![]()
like that had anything to do with jinxing* July 4, 1994 — On the same day the US national soccer team is eliminated from the 1994 FIFA World Cup by Brazil, an issue comes out that has the headline "Soccer Mania" and features US striker Earnie Stewart on the cover.
ok, back to basketball![]()
This cover comes out, and the Spurs go and sweep Portland and take New York out in 5 for the le.
This one comes out, and Duncan has maybe the best series of his career, closing out a le with a game of 21/20/10/8.
This is the only one that brought bad luck, and it was very bad.
All the others Tim has been on have been after les.
You're probably thinking of the Madden Curse: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madden_Curse
Wow...he's scary looking on that cover...
It'd be nice to see the big 3 on a cover
shred the mag and use it as confetti for da parade
That will be after the Spurs win it all next month.![]()
Nothing to see here.
The cover jinx doesn't work against the true greats...
They used to have Emmitt on it weekly back when the Cowboys were winning Superbowls.
All the male posters have to grab their left testicle and shout . . . you SI!
Ready . . .
YOU SI!!!!
Ouch, that hurt!
I got carried away!
Way to take one for the team![]()
Seriously though...
How many times was Jordan on the cover?
Muhammad Ali?
Lance Armstrong?
Duncan>Jinx
This one turned out alright....

When my Red Sox won the World Series and finally defeated the curse, that eliminated all curses and jinxs in sports.

I was living in RI when they won.
Boy did New England go crazy!
It was big enough to eliminate all curses!![]()
