There have been a couple of open threads dedicated to Christmas themes, together with this one by Gary Quan that stimulated a variety of wholesome dialog from the neighborhood. Right here’s mine, it’s only a listing of the issues that I feel that Santa ought to go away beneath the tree for members of the Spurs household. Plenty of these strategies are tongue in cheek, so it’s in all probability greatest to recollect these phrases of knowledge from the band America:
However Oz by no means did give nothing to the Tin ManThat he didn’t, didn’t already haveAnd Trigger by no means was the rationale for the eveningOr the tropic of Sir Galahad.
Nicely, rock lyrics don’t need to make sense, so let’s get proper into the listing:
For Gregg Popovich—A duplicate of the traditional online game Tank Commander, unique model.
For Jeremy Sochan—Some blue blocking sun shades. They supposedly can management glare, and may assist to see the actually tall man who’s standing proper there … within the paint … together with his arms raised. Actually, how do you not see him?
For Keldon Johnson—A Timex watch. It takes a licking and retains on ticking. Similar to you, KJ!
For Tre Jones—A duplicate of the Elvis Costello album, My Goal is True. Perhaps if he listens to it sufficient instances, the message will rub off on his lengthy vary capturing.
For Sandro Mamukelashvili—An Oscar the Grouch muppet, to allow them to get pleasure from rubbish time collectively (with the Spurs up huge, in fact).
For Devin Vassell—An damage free season, for as soon as.
For Julian Champagnie—Nothing, like a tremendous wine, he’s bettering with age.
For Wesley Blake—Extra taking part in time and an improved end on the hoop.
For Victor Wembanyama—Completely positioned passes within the paint, a number of instances a recreation. He’s proven that he is aware of what to do with the ball when he will get it close to the basket, the lacking ingredient is a constant methodology to get the rock to him in a well timed method.
For Spurs Followers—A heaping serving to of persistence and forbearance, as a result of this workforce will take time to jell and the person gamers are nowhere close to the place they’ll be in a couple of years.
Pounders – Pleased Holidays! And apologies to Jeremy Sochan, whose recreation I like. He’s positively adapting, however studying a brand new ability set whereas taking part in within the hardest league on the planet isn’t all the time going to be fairly. What are your present concepts? Go away them within the feedback.
