I am not affraid of the Spurs!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am getting really tired of everyone I first of all I am sick and tired of everyone kissing the San Antonio Spurs XXXXXX. I want to say that I think that the Spurs are one of the most over rated teams of all time. Yes, I realize that they just won the NBA championship, but there is no reason to be intimidated. Basically, the Spurs have three awesome players, Manu, Duncan, and Tony Parker. Don't even mention Finley, dude his WASHED UP and BIG shot BOb is rarely a factor unless you like REALy need a 3. I still think the Pistons that go at least 5 deep are better. And remember something Manu goes the wind, sometimes he is so hot that he threatens to give the fans sunburn and sometimes he does not have it. Tim Duncan is better than any big player we have right now but I think his true character came out last year in the finals when he missed like 10 free throws. Finally, Duncan is also over rated because he gets SO much help from the referees. :lol Even last yeas when I watched the Spurs play the Lakers on league pass and was rooting for the Spurs to win (because I hate the Lakers more) it was ridiculous how much the referees protected him. If you notice, almost every time Duncan drives to the hoop to do a jump hook the referees call a foul, which is probably why he does it so much. I have seen many players block Duncan cleanly and the refs blow the whistle It is absurd and ruins the integrity of the game. And the excuse that he should get protection because he is an all star is Lame. Hakeem Olijawon never got that protection and neither did Ewing. Also, all this talk that the Spurs are such a smart teams is pure BS. They got lucky with Duncan because Robingson got hurt, that’s luck not smarts. And they drafted Parker which was the common sense thing to do, not a ingenious move. In fact I remember jumping up and down being so exited during the 2001 draft when the Celtics with the 21st pick had the opportunity to take Tony Parker. I thought for sure the Celtics were going to take him, in my opinion there was no one better. My jaw dropped when the Celtics took Joseph Forte, I thought the Celtics organization was either crazy or stupid. And I was not the only one, other trade publications and websights and magazine had the Celtics taking Parker as well. My point is it was not the Spurs smarts that got them Tony Parker but just common sense.
In any case I am aware that right now the Spurs are a better team than us. I only hope for 2 things.
1) Delonte West holds his own against Parker and slows him down considerably.
2) Perkins and Jefferson slow down and contain Duncan.
If we can do either but hopefully both of these things we will be doing great.
hahaha...an idiot green fan... :drunk
Lets see after the game...
