SAN ANTONIO – With Tony Parker out for the remainder of the regular season, should the Spurs give in to reality, and start playing for next year?

You mean they havent started already? Could have fooled me.....Anyways, tanking is a good idea for the future.....I'd rather get a much higher draft pick than getting blown out in the first round of the playoffs....This team isnt going anywhere fast except down.....Get rid of Parker. Let France pay him the millions since he loves them so much.....My concern is how are the spurs going to make money in SA when the product sucks like it used to before D. Robinson.

Sagamer hit it right on the head. I love my Spurs but come on...Face the facts people...when Tony and Manu want to go play for their countries in the off season and continually get hurt in the process then you have to expect this outcome. I just wish our sportscasters had the guts to say it. When you are playing year round your body takes a toll. Stick a fork in them, they are done. Good luck in the France/Argentina leagues Tony and Manu. Hope it was worth it.

Lenny you hit it. I am sure if Tim, Manu and Pop decide to throw in the towel they will toss their paychecks in there too....right. Also if your not going to put your best product on the floor do I still have to pay full price at the gate?

yeah they need to...they have not been on track for some time....Duncan is way to old, tony is hurt..Manu and his bald spot are done....Time to look toward the future...its a fact!!!!
