? I'm a fan. I'm never happy. Get the back to back.
Just shocked this was your first lol

Yes, would be nice to repeat but #5 is real gys.
I want back to back championships also. However if it doesn't happen #5 was the one Timmy needed for his thumb and I'm content with that.
My life is still the same win or lose. However, last year left a gaping hole of tiness, so least it doesn't feel like that.
I thought 5 would satiate me, and in somewhat has, but there is still a hunger. , anytime you make a great movie, even if you caught lightning in a bottle, it's human instinct to make a sequel.
More than anything, I'm happy they won this one because I wanted to see Tim and Pop's trust in what they built be rewarded. Also, the trolls on here would've been at their absolute worst if they lost, i notice a lot of them have amnesia suddenly and act less trollish. But them.
So mainly just happy for Pop, Duncan and anyone else that believed, myself included.
I feel complete. B2B would be nice, but I know many things must come together to win a le. What really bothers me, that I still will hate everytime we lose to an inferior team in the regular season (like the Pistons last season) ...
Being a Tim Duncan fan first, yes it does.
I know how badly he wanted that 5th one and to have it all but wrapped up last year and letting it slipped hurt to the core but now that's remedied so its a nice end to that chase.
From a Spurs fan perspective, I want more of course so I will never say I'm happy with just 5 rings. I want them to win at least 4 or 5 more within my life time. Maybe asking alot but certainly doable.
Championships are like sex- the more you get, the more you want.
A back to back to bring the curtains down on the Duncan era, and to give both Tony and Manu their 5th les would complete me.
The Celtics won in 1976, and the Pistons won in 2004.
But yeah, 2007-2014 is not a "long drought". That is ridiculous![]()
It seems like only yesterday that I remember the Spurs winning that Game 7 in New Orleans in 2008, can't believe its been 7 years since the Cleveland sweep the time has just been flying by these past 7 years...
Man that game 7 beatdown was awesome. Of course it was rendered useless by MVPau.
Yes. But won't not care about a repeat.
I feel the exact opposite.
As a Spurs fan, I feel that #5 or #6 does not make much difference in terms of its ranking among all 30 teams (First obviously there are Celtics and Lakers, then Spurs, Bulls, etc.).
As a TD fan, it would make a huge difference to his status among all-time greats between 5 rings & never repeat and 6 rings & b2b. Timmy may get into discussion of top 5 or even top 3 if he gets #6 next year.
The 99 championship atoned for the 79 screw job against the Bullets, when the phantom foul against Paultz cost us the EC championship( we would have beaten the Sonics in Finals)
The 14 championship atoned for the 13 meltdown.
Now I want yo go back to back to atone for the last 4 failures. Then I will be completed. ( in the TD era)
Let's keep it popping! The more les for us the less for Lebron!
I want 6...only because I want to see all the Manu-Tony > Kobe threads!
I'll always be a Spurs fan whatever way the wind blows. With that said, would love a b2b
It redeems Pop - and you could see that he knew he was responsible for taking Timmy's 5th away - and he came back and made up for it.
It eases the sting a little - of not having 6-7-8 les - but in no way does it "complete" anything.
I can not blame Pop for that loss
Nope I want six to piss off Kobe, and then 7 to pass the Bulls and MJ. After the three peat I'd be ok with Timmay riding off into the sunset but heck we are Americans we always want MORE!
Spurs were down 0-2 and 1-3 in that series before coming back too, right? That was a pretty sweet series. I remember I nearly won the NBA Drive to the Finals thing that year, but I switched David West and Chris Paul for games 1 and 2 at the last minute, and if I didn't, I'd have beaten everyone by like 28. :\
