Goodbye Dejounte

[gospursgojas]

Will always root for Dejounte. It was a blast watching him grow as a player. He's not especially naturally talented but he worked incredibly hard and wasn't afraid to push himself to his limits.

He was also the last real connection to the Golden Years. TP telling Dejounte his time had come to lead the Spurs minutes after tearing his quadriceps sounded like the makings of the tale of how the Spurs extended their greatness beyond the Big Three Era. Unfortunately, that's not how the story ended.

Damn.. but for that asshole Zaza, we could have won it all. And who knows prolonged a dynasty.

The thing about Dejounte Murray is that he is a natural leader. A kid, who sets the tone. The Hawks are damn lucky. Both Murray and White were nice, cogent pieces who should have stayed if we had another star to helm the show. Sad to see them leave. Two Spurs who embodied what the franchise was in similar yet different ways.

I felt the Spurs would have won that series and destroyed the Warriors mentally like how the Lakers did to the Spurs in '01.

[mystargtr34]

Thoroughly enjoyed watching Dejounte grow into an All-Star. I was skeptical even until about 2019 then he took what seemed like a massive leap overnight, and then another one a year later.

Will always be welcome back in SA! Who knows, maybe he signs here in 2 years if things don't work out in Atlanta

That 2017 Spurs team was so good. And if there's one guy who wasn't intimated by the Warriors 'aura' like a few teams were, it was Neph and Pop. Neph was giving it to that Warriors team throughout the regular season, and during Game 1.

Zaza, whenever I see that goons face I clench my fist tbh. Warriors fans love him, rightly so given he was their 2017 MVP.

Man.

And LMA was still very much at the top of his game offensively and defensively at that point. Neph truly ed an organization and fanbase's plans. that guy all the way to his core.

[baseline bum]

Spurs didn't want to pay the man what he was worth, a bitter pill to swallow as a fan. Wonder if good Holt would have paid him?

How are the Holt’s even paying PATFO at this point.

[barakz21]

Definitely gonna miss him. Definitely enjoyed watching him grow both as a player and a person. I remember when he came back from that injury, he was just flexing and puffing his chest. The next couple of years, he seemed to have mellowed down on that the better he got.

[lefty]

Worked his ass off, compe ive player, not afraid to take his responsibilities

Good luck man

[ducks]

Damn going to miss DJ, he was one of my favorite players other than the Big 3. Instagram baller turned into the first home grown AS Spur since the Big 3 and Nephew, and the odds were heavily against him. I’m going to for sure follow him for the rest of his career.

Did you go bowling with him like I did with David Robinson
