| | Senior Member | End Of An Era. With the announcement of Manu Ginobli's injury sidelining him for the playoffs, it appears the curtain has been drawn on the Spurs' semi-dynasty. As they are currently constituted, they are done as title contenders. |

| | Senior Member | I'm just glad the Spurs were able to stay standing long enough to choke the life out of Steve Nash's career. That is actually their greatest accomplishment: Making sure that piece of trash never got a ring. |

However, the lack of a ring doesn't really help him out that much in terms of actually measuring how good he is. |

| I am befuddled as to how Steve Nash won the MVP two years in a row, and was close to a third. |
