whos the one spur you wish was still on the team?

Time machine:Any prime version of DRob, A-Train, Special K; Dice, KT, mings; Truth, and/or Horry in the front-court. Alvin Robertson (Gary Neal on defensive steroids) on combo-guard duty, and Rod Strickland, Van Exel, or Moore on bk-up PG.

Present day: Scola (duh), Hedo, and Nazr in front, and Hill or (much as it pains me to say it) V-Span as back-up PG. Add Devin for sentimental reasons.

Populating this mental exercise is fun, but if anything, it makes me realize how lucky we are to have the team we currently do. It could be argued that this is one of our shallowest (certainly our shortest) front-court rotations as legit contenders, but taken as a whole, it is one of the smartest, most talented groups we've ever fielded. Been a long time since we could feel this good about our post-season chances.

Big 50. , I would not mind him suited up now. He still looks in great shape.

Former player: Robert Horry.
Active player: Luis Scola.

David Robinson, Derek Anderson, JR Reid(Mr Hustle)
Hard to pick just one.

2003 Duncan would just decimate everything in his path. Same with mid-90's D-Rob(I'm partial to the '96 version).

[MR.SILVER&BLack]

Dave, Bruce, & Alvin Robertson for the intimidation factor.

Aside from the obvious picks like DRob, Iceman and Prime TD

I'd like to have someone in the current team to take on the 2005 role Glenn Robinson played.

I'm hoping Jack can play that role. Glenn Robinson surprised me in the playoffs of 2005 wherein for some reason, he knew how to play defense for the first time in his life. He was able to get some buckets when called upon. Didn't hear nary a complain that season, although if I remember correctly, he wanted superstar salary again after the season when he became a free agent?

I cannot believe nobody mentioned Derek Anderson here.. in 2001 or 2002 i think..

He was really doing great with the Spurs before stupid Juwan Howard dislocated his damn shoulder..

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Not even close. Prime DRob and we win in a canter. Prime Bruce Bowen second. Big Shot Rob third.

Gervin

Watching Pop blow up over his defense would be great fun.
Gervin with those half close eyes..."I gotcha coach, defense" and then let someone go by and promptly react by hitting a 3.

Ice was a pretty damn good defender....sure he was no Alvin or Bruce....but he could hold his own. Go look at his stats, at one time he was the team leader in blocks and steals.

[Biggems]

C: David, Artis, Splitter
