Great leader, not so great player. David made him who he was on the floor. And avery made D-rob do that.

So in a way, avery deserves it indirectly
You just know he was sitting there scouting and assessing the Spurs during the whole game.
you bet he was
i def saw AJ around everywhere
this mantage is takin me back
Looking at his picture on NBA.com's front page, that smile really is capturing.
Doesnt sound like many boo-ers. Good job keepin it classy SA.
Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Sean is always Sean, i like that
how many times will AJ ask for "a few more minutes"
He was very very important part of making the Spurs who they are now.
Its like a mount rushmore of the history of the Spurs.
Elliott, Gervin, Silas, Robinson, Johnson..
They made the organization it is now.
Period.
BTW, how many times you ever seen Pop cry?
There will be two times.
1. tonight
2. Tim Duncan's jersey retirement night.
Also, if there was a way to honor or "retire" a coach, Pop will definately get it too.
The Rafters are gonna be damn crowded in 15 years.
NY has Red Holzman's win total as the his "number" while Portland used 77 for Jack Ramsey (the year they won the le) so it can be done.Also, if there was a way to honor or "retire" a coach, Pop will definately get it too.
Whudda know? Sounds like AJ got choked up, after all.
David's speech was awesome, as was Avery's. I love when Sean said Cuban would be hanging from the rafters if he came in the arena.![]()
sucky as a pg but I appreciated for all he has done for the spurs of those passing years and just don't like the fact he is in Mav right now and felt it is kind of weird to do this right now.
the AJ and sean touch touch part was funny![]()

I did not want the jersey retired and don't like that it was.
However, there were parts of the ceremony I completely enjoyed.
Sean roasting Avery for example was awesome.
I appreciated Sean providing appropriate opportunities for me to get my boo out.
I loved the part of his talk when Sean talked about Dallas being a bad word around here. He told Avery, " We let you in the building but just you. If Cuban have showed he might have ended up hanging from the rafter instead of your jersey."
Or something to that effect. I hope someone you tubed it because it was super funny.
I stayed until the unveil and then left as Avery began to speak.
I noticed that Timmy wasn't on the program to speak but was there front and center. I thought that was sweet of him.
It's spooky how much AJ's son looks like him
hate to see these retirement..imaging when the day of manu and timmy retired ..that will be the day for my heart gets broken![]()
