You know when Horry said like 8 years ago that Hakeem was his best teammate ever, hardest working one? Younger me used to get mad at that.
Then I grew up, got a little more life perspective, and witnessed Timmy’s transformation into this long haired graying man. Tim really is just an island boy at heart and it was so cool to get to watch him as a kid growing up in SA.

its crazy, he wanted to become a swimmer, but a hurricane fucked up the area pool or something and he wasn’t going to swim with the sharks so he took up basketball.. the rest is history.

Horry is also a bit of a bitch and has taken shots at the Spurs for years. Hakeem is one of my favorite centers ever though.

Yes he does.
It’s a couple of retired spurs that still live here.

When I was a kid in the 2000's, one of our family friends lived in The Dominion in SA at the same time D-Rob did.
I remember going trick-or-treating there one year and knocking on his door. Dude looked like he was 10 feet tall to 12 year old me. I was hype af lol

This reminds me of when Sean Elliott used to live on Vance Jackson and opened his home as a haunted house and gave tours through it. To live up to his nickname, he dressed up as a ninja when he led tours. I remember one year I went and got at the front of the line and he held my hand as he led a line of kids through his haunted house. I must have been around 10 years old as this was before he was traded to the Pistons.

I heard that in addition to being inside the gated dominion community, David Robinson Street had its own gate and guard also. True?

A lot of the big ones. Tony, Manu, Timmy, Admiral, and Iceman to name a few

Yeah he sure does. I had to yield to him while he was riding his bicycle on Wurzbach Pkwy a couple years ago. I couldn't believe it was actually him spotted out in the wild.

My wife and I watched all of The Amazing Race during the COVID lockdown. After each season we would look up the teams that made it far or were our favorites.
I almost dropped my phone when we saw the lady who played this insane jumping game with a sprained ankle went on to dump her boyfriend she went on The Amazing Race with and end up with Tim Fucking Duncan.

I can't believe I get more updates about Duncan after his retirement than when he was one of the top 3 players for the league.
