Yep. Like I've said many times, there are millions of fans of several other teams who would love to be bored watching their teams win championships.
my take......
I'll take a boring winner vs an exciting loser any day of the ing week, because when all is said and done history will only remembers the winners, not 2nd place.
bottom ing line.

Exactly, Im sure there are people out there that can remember which teams the Celtics went through, but they definately are the minority.... 90% of people just know the Celtics have 14 championships, thats it... no one cares how or who they went through to get them without searching it up on the internet.
It will be the Same with the Spurs 3 (or more) championships.... All people will remember 20 years from now is that they (Spurs) where the most consistantly dominate franchise (percentage wise) in the whole world of Sports for 10+ years, not just basketball. Add on 1 or 2 more championships???.............
1 more thingy...do you know why i say contenders yes, champions not?, beacuse manu is the courage, the eggs, the clutch that the spurs doesnt have *cough duncan cough*, *cough parker cough*...
Actually, it's 16.
57, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 68, 69, 74, 76, 81, 84, 86.
I'm a fountain of useless sports trivia, otherwise I wouldn't know that.
Accidental double post.
I seem to recall Duncan winning 2 les without Ginobili.
Duncan is the anchor that carries the team.
And did I say the Spurs would be champs without Manu? No. I said they would be contenders.
With Manu & Without Duncan they are maybe an 8th seed, more likely on the outside looking in.
Once again, you're head of the redundancy department of redundancy.
And still a ing tool.
As a great man once said,
"NOW GO HOME AND GET YOUR ING SHINEBOX."
You got me, but thats not the point....
Take the movie 300 for example.
People remember the battle (thanks to the movie) but most dont look at how they (Spartans) killed children who weren't perfect, raped and pillaged villages, treated women as "lesser", where pretty much down right bas s of their time.... but no one remembers that, all they remember is how 300 men killed others by the thousand, never mind how they did it, they just did. Yet here we are today, creating movies about how they took on a large army and brought it to its knees and making them look like the saviours of the world.
Actually I remembered that. I'm a history buff.![]()
I swear I'm not trying to talk . I agree with your takes.
You're just lucky enough to pick topics that I know.
But your take holds water. The average person doesn't remember the specifics.
wrong!
wtf is tool?

You're correct. I'll give you that. I forgot about Ginobili in 2003. Probably because he was a ROOKIE that started 5 REGULAR SEASON GAMES and didn't start a SINGLE ING PLAYOFF GAME!
What else you got?
Translation: you are officially![]()
I would have to say anybody who says Duncan's game is boring does not understand the game. There is no way anyone who understand the game cannot appreciate the angles he masters on defense, the arsenal of offensive weapons he has, his ability to finish with both hands, the way he fills in for his teammate's errors, over and over in a game, it is beautiful to watch.
Miles Davis and John Coltrane are probably "boring" to kids who listen to Pussy Cat Dolls and Justin Timberlake.
nailed that ing argument. solid.

They wouldn't have any without Duncan. What's your point?
its up there, read
I seem to remember that Manu has won 2 les without Elson.
Greg Anthony is becoming a smart analyst.
He was the only one I heard after the Suns/Horry fiasco point out the most obvious thing which fans didn't: Blaming Horry for the Amare/Diaw suspends doesn't make sense. How many other "flagarant" fouls have we seen in the NBA these playoffs? A week earlier Baron Davis committed a serious one against Fischer, etc. yet no one from any other team got up to cause a scene like Amare/Diaw. Everyone knows the rules....
Seriously, what does Man have to do with it?
Malone couldn't win a Championship. Period. No matter who he was with.
So while, yes, Duncan's teammates matter, I guarantee the Spurs are Tim Duncan's team.
No "ands", "ifs" or "buts."
