Sam Mack – I met Sam Mack at my 16th birthday party at Lai Wah’s Chinese restaurant and I got his autograph and he also provided me a game ticket for the final game at Hemisphere Arena!! What an awesome gesture! It’s too bad I didn’t keep that game ticket!! I do have a game ticket for the last game at the Alamodome against the Lakers and I also have a game ticket from the last game at Reunion arena in Dallas (I worked for the Spurs and some of the employees went to that game). We were up 3 games to none over Dallas and they beat us…didn’t matter since in the next game, the Spurs beat em to move on to the 2000 Western Conference Finals against the Lakers. Oh, the Lakers swept us and ultimately won the Championship…STUPID LAKERS!!!
Robert Horry
Ime Udoka
As I was looking over the list, I realized a bunch of them have CHAMPIONSHIP RINGS. Guess how many? 24!!!! Robert Horry has 7, Steve Kerr has 5, and Beno (yes Beno Udrih has 2…both with the San Antonio Spurs in 2005 and 2007).
GO SPURS GO!!!! LET’S BRING HOME NUMBER 5 TOMORROW NIGHT!!!!
