Greates Spur of ALL Time?

[Blondie]

Johnny More is on TV right now and said that he thinks Gervin was the greatest Spur of all time. What do y'all think? Who would your pick be?

Gervin

Robinson

Duncan

Elliott

Moore

Tim hasn't reached Dave's level of greatness yet, but he will. Dave gets the nod for now in my book.

[NZ Spurs]

I voted for Dave. Tim has the stuff if he is kept in SA.

[GrandeDavid]

I agree with Drew. Just give Duncan a couple more years of dominance and perhaps another title and it´d be hard to dispute his case.

"Israel is the only democracy in the world in which there are guards in every school and in every kindergarten in order to protect the children against Palestinian terrorism."

Drob for now, Can you imagine this conversation after TD and Tony Parker have played another 10 years together.

definitely d-rob right now......but, duncan could overtake him down the road......ALSO.....elliott hit the biggest shot in spurs history, in my opinion.....game 2, 99 west finals, to take the lead over portland....changed that whole series. that should be worth something!



go spurs go

[Steve002]

Seems like Gervin should at least get one vote. Although, I voted for David. Tim could certainly pass him up, but he'd have to have a very prolific career.

[Blondie]

My vote for DROB was not based entirely on his basketball. He has done more for the franchise and the community than anyone. Tim may surpass him in numbers, but Big Dave will always be unique in the impact he has had on us.

[BiggDrew]

Well said Blondie. There is a reason that Dave still gets the loudest ovation in the dome. His contributions to the city are phenominal. Tim has some HUGE shoes to fill.

[SPURSMANIA]

I think Drew and the Blonde one said it all! Now lets go close out the Sonics and take care of the Lakers.

Having had a chance to see all three play during their prime,, one can compare David and Tim because they are both big men, while the Iceman was a guard. DRob and TD are both great defenders, but neither of them could put up the numbers night after night that the Iceman could. The Iceman was not noted for his defense, but he was usually guarding the opponents shooting guard or high scoring small forward. I think for pure talent I would vote for Duncan.

[Maorza]

All time?



David Robinson.

Tim has moves that David never had. He is the perfect compromise. He doesn't have the size of David, or the skill of Gervin, but is an extremely potent combination of the two.



Give Tim a few years. I wouldn't be surprised to see him average 29 and 14 like David used to.



Look at his resume already:

Quote:

---

Rounding out the All-NBA First Team were Los Angeles Lakers’ center Shaquille O’Neal and San Antonio Spurs’ forward Tim Duncan, who tied as the top vote-getters with 626 points each. O’Neal made his fourth appearance on the All-NBA First Team and led all players with 125 First Team votes. Duncan was named to the All-NBA First Team for the fifth consecutive season and secured 124 First Team votes.

amazing.

Clearly, David has the nod for now. But in a few years, Timmy will have this honor sewn up. In order for now, the top three are:



David Robinson

Tim Duncan

George Gervin

[Spurs4ever]

I agree with DRob for now, but it will be Tim...
