Allright

Must congratulate the Suns on a good victory.

I give credit where it is due and the Suns beat the Spurs when I seriously thought they wouldnt. I thought they couldnt shoot the 3 ball over 50 percent in the series again. I was wrong well and right they shot like 48 percent rather than 50 percent against the blazers but every game. If they do that again they should handle the Lakers.

Well now that I got that out of the way.

Here is my take on the Spurs how they did this year. I know if your not a basketball fan I am just rambling and allow your mind to wander. If ya are just hear me out. This year everybody at the beginning of the season was at least on the Spurs bandwagon saying they were championship contenders. Then the season started and ohh my god those reporters and people jumped ship faster than rats on a sinking boat. I had faith all year saying they would win 50 games or more. Not many people believed me the spurs were injury riddled like never before and then not to mention the slow start of new comer Richard Jefferson. When they tried to force RJ into the rotation and call plays it disrupted him but when they let him run and took the pressure off he was having troubles. Now I am not upset we lost to the Suns seriously I would have been upset if we lost to the Mavs. I know a few of you know I have a hatred of two teams the Lakers and the Mavs. I even wore my I root for two teams the spurs and whoever beats the mavs shirt into the Dallas Arena with  buckhopper and  jtigerclaw unfortunatly  buckhopper stole the show because he wore all his Kings gear and the Mavs were playing the Heat. *lol* he rectified that by wearing a Kidd Jersey....mmm...seriously I need to get Bhop a Bowen Jersey that I can live with *lol*. Well anyways back to the spurs lets see they have lots of promising players and they got young overnight. Seriously they are not the oldest team they are one of the youngest only have 3 players over 30. I think they did well this year better than I actually expected. I mean a 50 win 7th seed is nothing to sneeze at but beating your division rivals when they have homecourt and supposedly the better team pound for pound is awsome. So them not losing in the first round a + and then there is the matter of actually winning 50 games that is another + because no one thought they could do it after awhile. Now lets see what else ohh yeah the spurs are going to be a force next year. Why do you ask well I am glad you asked. They now got the 20th pick in the draft that is 6 to 8 slots higher than they normally draft and anyone who watches the Spurs knows they find that diamond in the rough. Let see....they got a young new pg in Garrett Temple I know  buckhopper knows who he is because he had a 10 day contract up in Sac-Town. I dont think Mason is going to be back so this is how I see some of the roster shaping out.

PG:Parker (starter) Temple (Bench)
SG:Hill (Starter) Ginobilli (Bench-he really loves the bench seriously)
SF:Richard Jefferson (Starter)
PF:Tim Duncan (Starter)
C:Antonio McDyess(Starter)

Now with PF and Center you are rotating Bonner and Blair around in there that is why didnt include them up there but they will be back ups to McDyess and Duncan.

I really think McDyess has one more year or two in him he did a really good job for us.

Also the Spurs have another guard named Gee and also a guard Hairston who are good not sure where we are going to put them could either trade them or keep them D League or just go guard deep.

Tiago Splitter PF is also supposed to be here next year. I am really excited about his kid.

Also Besides Mason not being back probly I think the Mahimi experiment is over. I hate to say it I love Mahimi but he isnt panning out.

Another play the spurs have is another young pg they drafter last year who is 19 and in the french league Nando de Colo he seems to be a promising player as well.

The Spurs even though they draft low which suits them fine are able to pull rabbits out of their hats.

I really think the spurs did well this year I would have like to have seen at least one win against the Suns but the Suns played out of their minds and the Spurs played hard and that is all I can expect of them.

So I say this I give them my applause and standing ovation for making this a great season and for not giving up when they could have just shut down and become a lottery team.

I cant wait for next seaon

And yes I do watch sports way to much and I have even been told I need to get a gig on the radio to talk sports.

I will leave ya with this last few words.

GO SPURS GO!
