The Spurs have won 5 Championships now.
They have given away at least 2 (2006 and 2013), and some would say other years.
Some, dare i say most of you were completely happy with 4. Even if they'd never won the 5th.
Myself, while 5 does not complete me, it's so much better then leaving with the giveaway of 2013 had the Spurs not won this year.
Complete? No, but again much much better.
A 6th would complete me.
for me it completes me for Tims career. longest drought without a le in his career and now we dont have to hear the laker bandwaggon kobe lovers compare 5 to 4 rings anymore. it was the cherry on top for me. but i want to see the spurs in the finals every year
It does for me. Any more rings from this core would be gravy for me, and I think they're capable, but if that doesn't happen I'll still feel fulfilled. I wouldn't have without #5, though.
This is the frst time a team i was a fan of won a championship in the three major sports. I'd at least need a San Diego team to win something.
I thought the '99 le completed me as far as being a Spurs fan goes. The 2014 le had special significance though after last season and the long drought after 2007. I always figured Tim would get at least 5 les. Now Manu and Tony need their thumb ring.
But, yeah, I'm pretty much set.

If you can what if no .4, manu foul, or allen three then you should be able to what if a whole bunch of other things that gave us the good fortune of 5 championships.
Yeah I'm good with 5 for Duncan's career. 4 Definitely would have felt a bit short, especially considering the last one came in 2007 and how things ended in 2013 but now that that's all history he can ride off to the sunset with 5 and i'd be more than happy.
I'm not I'm hungry for more
Yeah, 4 was good, but still felt a little "incomplete" to me. Now that Timmy and the Spurs have 5, I'm happy. Anything more is just gravy.
The fact that we refer to 2008-2013 as the 'drought' shows just how bloody lucky we really are.
For most franchises, the example of a drought would be 1976-2004...
Yes, but it would be nice to catch the Bulls and possibly pass them, especially with the big three still playing. (I know...dreaming big!) Seven would put the Spurs second only to the Lakers in les won, since the franchise has been in the NBA.
The championships just make me more proud to be a Spurs fan and will affect how I treasure the memories of this era of Spurs basketball. If anything, it was losing the championship last year that allowed me to take a step back from the sports world and realize that these games we watch don't affect our lives at all, and any pain we experience from losing is avoidable if you just change the way you think about it. I'm not trying to say losing is okay or doesn't suck by any means, just saying that feeling bad doesn't have to mean you're hurting.
Sports are a great hobby. Being a fan is a great privilege. But saying you "need" a championship to "complete" you is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. Plenty of fans don't even get to experience one, and here you are saying five les isn't enough and you need another one. Shut up and go outside, Fabbs.
Yes. Will definitely hope for more but getting 5 was/is extremely satisfying considering the 7 years it took to get it. Just an incredible feat tbh. Amazing.
6-Never repeated.That gets thrown in the face
i prefer 6 les.
tosb 6
kobe 5
A #6 and b2b would complete me.
lol did you go see a therapist?
I'm a banker, which means I'm a capitalist pig ... I'm greedy as . As Busta Rhymes said "Gimme some more"
I could def die happier knowing they won that 5th LOBT. I'm still hungry for the coveted repeat, but yes 5 completes me the way Dorthy competed Jerry McGuire.
The Spurs are on the rise and they could repeat. Pop has finally reached Phil's levels of consitency and this team is fantastic.
I does for me. A peat would be nice, but I am happy with 5.
Yes......but if b2b happened, I would be icing on the top
Pretty much completes me as a Spurs fan. But being spoiled I definitely want 6. Tim just passed Shaq Daddy. Now he is even with Kobe and Magic. One more would put him above Kobe and Magic and equal with that egotistical bag Michael Jordan. 5 was a dream but felt like we made up for the fails of 11/12/13. To go B2B and win Championship 6 would not just be great but absolutely historic.
