The reason I am a Spurs Fan is David Robinson. Read an article about him and started liking basketball because of him. This was late 1990 when I was only a young fella.
We've got many San Antonians on that forum and we've got some international fans.
I noticed fans from France, Slovenia, New Zeland, Australia, Argentina.
My Q is :are there any other 'Nations' on that forum who are chearing for the Spurs?
And (for everybody) What was the reason becoming the San Antonio fan?
I suppose for the 'internationals' is the fact that their country is represented in NBA by the man who is playing for the Spurs.
But maybe there are other reasons, so I would like to know.
I would be glad to hear from You

As you stated correctly, in my case its the fact that Manu plays for the Spurs.
But now that I have followed the team for two seasons, I have to add that the Spurs organization is a class act and its fans are increadibly cool (at least the ones that post here).
This year I will follow the Bulls (Nocioni) and, too a lesser degree, the Pistons (Delfino, although I think he will be carrying the other players´ gym bags for a while before he gets some playing time).
Nevertheless, those teams will be way behind the Spurs in the pecking order.
I followed the Spurs ever since Gaze played for them in 1999, ah the golden years...
Similar to MI21, my reason was the one and only Mr. Robinson. We got a highlights show from my memory and I also read an article around...93 in which it entailed how David was the leader and so forth. Also, the pic in the article was looking up at him and he looked so intimidating (considering I would have been a youngun at the time) and focused.
Anyway, I kept an eye on D-Rob in the highlights show we got and bought a few of the NBA (combined with NBL) magazines and gradually made my way into being a Spurs fan.
The net really helped me in becoming a hardcore fan with my access to information and stuff.
Was purely fate that my favourite Australian ball player (Gaze) was on the roster for awhile.
Anyway, in short - David Robinson.

Ah yes, I used to drop peanut s s in my beer while watching Gervin in the Arena(1974). Those were the days. And, a brother could light up back then. Damn, miss it a lot! Tickets were pretty cheap then also. Parking was a . 'Ol #44.
I suppose the Spurs will now attract fans from Slovenia due to the addition of the first Slovenian Spur, Beno Udrih.
I became fan of Spurs when Rasho came in San Antonio last year and now Beno came here so what to tell!
First time that i start to watch NBA when i was 11 years old! Bulls and MJ play with Jazz! I will never forget those games!Good old times!
But now I`m 20 yrs old and everything change.
Now Slovenia have 5 NBA players! In Slovenia lives just 2.000.000 people. And we are very good in sports.
But here in Slovenia i can`t watch games of San Antonio. Non TV is broadcasting NBA games only sometimes on SAT tv but 2-3 times on month so ?
It`s been talking that national TV will broadcasting NBA games of San Antonio but nothing.
When season begins on this site are NBA games so i DOWNLOAD them!

I Joined the Spurs Fan for "Sato", we came form the same part of Africa. the country ( central africa republic ) is well respected in Africa for Basketball. Sato is the first player to make it to the NBA, many before him have tried...And he is a very Good kid, very humble and respectful. The whole country is cheering for the spurs and call Sato, the National pride. His last trip home, he met with the president, it was huge.
We thank the spurs organization for giving him this opportunity....
Go spurs.....
