Wow, what a great gene pool we have here among these boys!!

A team of broad skills, size, flexibility and strength with some wonderful coaches...

It will be more than interesting to see how this group goes against the rest of the world, the only thing we lack here is any interest in our local media whatsoever!

If this was a National soccer team or cricket team, or AFL/NRL team I am sure they would get more media attention, pick up your game Australia and start recognising the other WORLD GAME, please....

big shot bobby said that his spurs could easily beat the lakers and celtics of the 80's...the spurs are meant to be a classy team..and horry isnt reflecting that by saying this...

"No disrespect to the guys back in the 80's and the 70's, but the guys now are so much better than those guys. I don't care what they say. If you look at old films, guys only went right. They turned and kept it in their right hand. Look at the things LeBron can do, Tim can do, Tony can do, Manu can do. Little Gibson over there. There's no way you can compare those guys. We watched what they did and expanded in that."

"Money hurt that Lakers team," Horry said. "It came down to this guy wanted this much money, that guy wanted this much money. Those two guys Shaq and Kobe wanted to be the top dog and forgot about the other guys. It all boiled down to money. Money is the root of all evil sometimes."

"Sometimes you can't see the forest through the trees. They didn't win that championship against Detroit (in 2004), and they said, 'OK, Karl Malone you're injured, bye. Gary Payton, you're too old, bye. Shaq, you want too much money, bye.' "

horry...chill...
