Woj: Spurs are hiring Brent Barry, a television analyst and 14-year NBA veteran, into a front-office position, league sources tell ESPN.

I like where this is going...

You are exactly right with this. I'm not ready to let this fade out of my memory either. Most people don't know this anymore (or never did if they are newer fans). The NBA has been so manipulative over the years with ref bias/agenda and their endless new rules. It has cheapened the product greatly which sucks because this is my favorite sport and these are some of the best athletes in the world. Let them ing play. Jesus.

By the way do you remember after one of the Spurs win in the series, Avery Johnson had the temerity to whine about officiating during the postgame conference. I mean I could've punched him I was so ticked he could clamor for even more calls for his team. And I still can't believe the Spurs retired this guy's jersey (and they didn't allow Manu to wear #6 in 2002 because of him).

I have a feeling in 5-10 years I'm going to go on a rant about the 2012 and 2016 Okcheat series too on here.

I can already prepare for the flack I'm going to get posting this but I can understand when people have grown up with the bad habit of exclaiming "Jesus Christ" or "oh my God" or "Go* damn" and theyve done it whole life and are densensitized to it. Yall obviously arent Christian and dont care or realize that you're committing blasphemy (one of 10 commandments) each time u do it but when u actually take the time to type it out thats no accident. Non-believers wont care but for those of us who do its actually offensive and if yall at least consider yourselves"good" people try to avoid it knowing the majority of people do believe.

Troll post

But

Using an asterisk in place of a letter doesn't fool God's boolean filter.

I’m not sure which series that it was, but Dallas got ninety seven FTs in the first two games. NINETY SEVEN!

And yet Pop did NOTHING to defend his team and players to the media when this atrocity happened. Any other coach (Larry Brown, Phil Jackson) would have defended his team and called out the media. This is one of the reasons I say the Spurs underachieved. Pop cared more about looking classy than he did getting his team in a position to get better calls during the series.

I don't recall that but wasn't watching the team closely in those days. He was a character guy and that's the main reason his # was retired . I don't think it shouldve been. Nor Bruce.

Pop did not lobby for calls or complain about ref bias. I think he should have. One of my buddy's biggest beefs with Pop.

Exactly. I wish he viewed the NBA and it's cronies the same way he views Trump.

[HWoodNixon]

It works both ways. If the Spurs had tried to become more marketable then whose to say Manu,Parker, and even Duncan's egos don't blow up. They might not have had same type of unity and chemistry that allowed them to stay together long term. I do believe a team like the Warriors will have chemistry problems once they are finally dethroned due to all the big egos they have.

do you really think a guy like Tim would allow that to happen?

Most likely it wouldn't but you just don't know.

Sounds like the 2003 WCF.

Game one Dallas shot 49-50 from the FT line:

Those old stat lines are pretty fascinating tbh. even seeing who was reffing. Just to think that last year Spurs had two of those players still on the roster, after 15 years. Those players all seem old as .

So this is the real reason porker left

Cool for Brent. I’m going to miss him on NBA TV. Hopefully he does a good job for our guys.

I dig the name of his band: Panic! At The Costco.
