please describe for me
I'm really quite sorry to hear that. For many years now, I...we have thought of the Spurs as the team of gentlemen.
Horry (a role player) smashed into Steve Nash during their playoff series, getting a flagrant intentional foul call. When Stoudemire and Diaw (two major players) came off the bench (never getting more than 7 feet from their seats and never touching anyone), THEY were suspended for a game each. It was the difference in the series.
Bruce Bowens defensive practices have been suspect for many years. He’s “accidentally” stepped on too many ankles for it to be a coincidence...
Manu Ginobili flops more than Dick Fosbury...
As one writer put it: “Tony Parker, of course, doesnt need our love he has Eva Longoria. Seriously, how do you root for Tony Parker? You root for the guy to GET Eva Longoria, not after hes already done it”. His (truly accidental) severe bloodying of Steven Nash’s nose at the crucial moment of a playoff game didn’t help things...
Tim Duncan still has my respect and my sympathy (tossed from a game for laughing)...
And the Spurs have had their success. I always turn against teams that become dynasties. (It’ll be interesting for me if my Colts become a mutliple Super Bowl over the next 5 or 6 years!)
