Nah, Kirk Thomas would mean #5.
Im wondering what kinda fan am I. I mean, I love the spurs. Dont getme wrong. But im tired of this roster man. I truly feel we aren't winning with this . Game after game Tim plays his ass off but he's the oldest. Ive grown tired of watching the spurs pick on weak teams but get bullied by the better teams. I got league pass broadband but I find myself not even turning the spurs on here lately. I mean when im away or at work I watch scoreboard on my phone an play by play. But I'm tired of seeing the same old with them man. They don't try to trade for any athletic players an anyone with some dam swag. You never know which Ginobili your gonna get, an I really feel Parker is fools gold. Diaw needs to go man. I swear I wish we could get Kirk Thomas, Dice, an Oberto back. Am I tripping or what? Is there anyone who feels my pain or who disagrees with me.

Yeah, man I really hate this roster that has one of the best records in the NBA. Makes sense.
I love to hate on some of our players, but we have a damn good team and are certainly an NBA le contender. I'm not saying it's likely, but we have as good of a shot as most any team out there. It could be much, much worse. You could be a Mavericks or Lakers fan.
The Spurs have truly spoiled us fans, though. 60+ win seasons and appearances in the Western Conference Finals would thrill most fans, but we don't even care anymore. It's NBA le or bust!
Shouldn't the mantra be, "NBA le or Bust?" What's the point of following a team if not for the chance to see them win it all? This goes into the "we overachieved or we've had a good season" line of thinking. What would thrill most fans of mediocre teams, shouldn't thrill the fans of the Spurs. It isn't because we're spoiled, it's because this team is as capable as any other top contender to win it all! Who loves a loser? This isn't the Atlanta Braves of the nineties!
We're one Miami Heat injury from being the favorites. That is all.
this is the same team that steamrolled the compe ion for 20 straight games last year to lose in a six game series in WCF. Pop is tinkering with its defense right now, knowing thats all this team is needing. I'm sure Pop wants a player who can add to the team defense, but he's not going to sacrifice too much considering how good it is.
RELAX
LOL BULLIED by the good teams, we have a pretty good record against GOOD teams would not you say? The schedule tonight was setting us up to lose! 4 games in 5 nights again? GET REAL. This team is 26-9 sides the horrible schedule so far, they tried to rush us as many games as they could early on. Spurs might not win it all this year and I doubt they do, but they have a shot and will be a high seed again and how many years in a row can they do that? This team has been great for so long, give them a break nobody stayed on top nearly this long.
"You play to win the game" dam a break! When its ok just to be seeded high just to lose in 6 after winning the 1st 2 gms, I'll quit watching all sports. They need to be getting set for the future now. Its sad to say but Nobili is done after this season. Cpt Jack is done also. Hes slower on defense an his shot is falling off even faster. But like I said, maybe im tripping.
Oyea, I dont care what the Spurs do in the regular season! They're the model team right. Then they dont get a age pass cuz they get deep onto the playoffs.
They got far last year AND I have no clue how far they will get this year, tell me when Boston does it for this long or LA Lakers without some damn trade! Miami without a trade! Let them win this much for a decade or so and then tell me this team is bad! They do what they can! Their stars are older now, barring a Lottery where they get another TIM OR D ROB etc. it will be this way! They have done as good as they can, win or lose they are trying hard and with the staff they have maybe even overachieving at times! Memphis series they were done IMO, ready to be gone! Next year WCF, enjoy it!!!!!!!!!
Sure I'd like to see Vince Carter and JR Smith on the roster, but tbh when they thrash teams like Dallas and NJ last few games I'm pretty content.
I imagine in 3 or 4 years you'll get your "athletic swag" players, but I'm afraid the tradeoff will be a sharp decline in win percentage, tbh.
da fuk is Kirk Thomas? Ya mean 'crazy eyes' Kurt Thomas?
Since 1984, only 8 out of 30 franchises have won a le. Thats a long 30 years for the 22 other franchises. To have been a legit contender for so long is a testament to Pop, Duncan et al. Only one team can win it each year, you need to enjoy the ride and let the chips fall where they may.
We might win, we might not, but if you don't enjoy the ride then it's probably best you've stopped watching.
The kind that gets pissed off when the GM & Coach are content with a mediocre roster.

I'm the kind of fan that with a good roster or not, I'm here to enjoy the ride, simple as that. Go Spurs Go!
Your a great fan! I just feel its time for a change. Shake sum up a lil. Its clear to see we're just a regular seasen team. No different then that "Monkeyball team" as most like to call them.
We are a team that wins the games we are supposed to and a few we shouldnt. Sucks when you live in knicks territory and have to here there spills about how great the knicks are.. Ughhhhhhh, thanks Spurs.
Funny thing is that the Knicks will probably fall apart in the playoffs again and their fans will be going on a "trade (whoever)" frenzy.
Dude every one feels this way when we see our Spurs knocked around by athletic strong teams like Memphis, Clips, OKC and now the Knicks. Spurs had a real tough time defending the 3, defensive rotations were slow, sloppy ball, and inefficient offense. Truly, these guys were gassed and it showed. I've said it before, Knicks aren't special the way the Spurs are with passing and team play, but they do have a lot of players who can get hot and when that happens, they often are all hot at once and it truly makes them a tough team to beat. But when it's the 4th city in 5 nights, our guys are at a real disadvantage. Don't get too down about this one, shrug it off. Enjoy the good games and shrug the few here-and-there whoopins off.
Let's be honest, when the Spurs start the rebuilding process, the expectations will fall. There will be times when sucess is defined by just making the playoffs. That time will come, the question is what are we doing to maximize the chances to ring while we have a chance. Someone needs to send Duncan a memo explaining to him that the work he's putting in is all for nothing! Until I see TD not come back stronger, hungrier, and more focused, I gotta ride wit the man! NBA le or Bust!!
Someone should send his teammates the memo! Get yo ass in gear!!!
An thats my point! Old ass Timmy is all we can truly count on an if its no le, its all for nothing in his last yrs. Shake up before he cant go any longer, even if it means trading Tony or Manu!
the only thing i hate is that the Spurs FO didn't get any help to Tim on the frontline. I really cant be that angry if we are playing Bonner.
Here's a thought....do you guys think the FO would consider moving Bonner for Tyler Hansbrough? He's on the out in Indy and the Pacers could use Bonner's skillset. We need a guy that gives it all, every single play. There PER is about the same. We already have a stretch 4 named Diaw! Diaw and Bonner gets redundant.
Enjoy the ride man.... We're not even supposed to be here right now, Tim Duncan is beasting & the rest will follow.
