Like Rocky Balboa, it should be right in front of the SBC center
...pe ion drive (www.ipe ions.com) If any player in the history of basketball deserves one, it is David Robinson. He stands for and has stood far what is right about being a high profile athelete. I firmly believe that he deserves this honor far and beyond that of MJ. At least David has never been associated with any scandal and would be an honest representation of the San Antonio community.
100 years now, parents will still talk about as well as explain the statue that resides in front of the SBC center.....

I think Duncan might be more deserving of a statue. Eventhough Robinson has done great things for the community, he never won with Duncan. Maybe the both of them side by side would be fitting.
That is it right there. What he has done in the community should outweigh what he did on the court.I think Duncan might be more deserving of a statue. Eventhough Robinson has done great things for the community, he never won with Duncan. Maybe the both of them side by side would be fitting.
What Dave may have "lacked" on the court, he more than made up for off of it. I think a better place would be at the Carver Academy.
If you really have to...you can do both. Put one of Duncan at the SBC.
Honor your past before flattering your present.
The Spurs have had three Fall of Fame, franchise players: Gervin, Robinson, and now Duncan.
Do Gervin's first. Then in a few years do Robinson.
Duncan himself would find it laughable and re ulous to put a staue of himself up while he's still playing. But after he's retired, his should also be there.

Statue of them goin fishin?
Gervin's has to be a statue that is made of transparent material to make it seem like ice
Sweet suggestion!

I would DEFINITELY vote for a David Robinson statue.
GG's statue needs to be somewhere like at Jordan Ford. Like the big Indian at the Red McCombs dealership, but this one will be of the Ice Man outside of the Jordan Ford dealership.

I could see one happening for DRob or even Duncan in the future, but I just dont see it for Iceman.
The statue can be David and Tim raising trophy's in 99's..
Has anyone been to George's Bar, they have some damn good nachos with brisket in it... i ate there a couple of years back at the airport it was delish
I'm for Statue of David
(I'm already imagining those biceps of the Admiral looking good in front of the SBC)
let's have Tim's when he retires.
Tim has delivered 2 more trophy's... I don't think we need to wait for him to give the city more.... Kill 2 projects with 1 stone...
Im all for a statue of Dave.... Kori, could you point us to the correct person to pass our idea onto...
Im for it, but you would first have to honor George Gervin. So how about a statue of them both and maybe a third person like Sean Elliott. My idea would be Robinson with Gervin and Elliott on both sides of him with room behind them to put a bigger statue of Duncan in the future. So it would be a statue of several great players. Maybe several statues that lead up to the SBC Center and a mural of all the great Spurs would work. Have you thought about asking for Spurs fans to sumit drawings of what they would like to see. Maybe scan photos of the players from say basketball cards or magazines.
yeah..how about a statue of timmy and david holding up the mvp and championship trophies after the first le? that would be the s.
I'd support that idea. It shouldn't be just David by himself. There were other people who did great things for hte franchise.
psyco, you're nuts.
why is Rasho always been a subject of ridicule to some people in here?![]()
How about an invisible statue of Hedo Turkoglu
Not jsut Hedo. There should be a lot of invisible statues. Some would say there should be one for Tony at the end of important games.
I'm all for a DRob statue
that's a great idea.
But I agree with some pp that the Duncan statue nneds ot wait till after he's retired.
as for Gervin.. ehhh.. maybe.
How about this:
Widen Houston St. from Downtown to the SBC Center. Give it a large grassey, walker friendly, well lit median. Rename the stretch of road or give it a nicname like Victory Lane or Winner's Ave. Every 100 ft, there'd be a statue of a San Antonio sports figure.
David, George, Tim, Jesse James, Josh Davis, Johnny Moore, etc.
