@Novig I held my first child, born May 1999, in my arms, as we celebrated our Spurs 1st championship. As she grew up, we enjoyed many seasons in the upper deck with her grandparents, many joys and many tears, and a game 7, silver and black confetti raining down on us. Go Spurs Go!

@manuginobili @missraydiancee We’ll probably channel surf then pop in a DVD.

For everyone who loved seeing the nuns cheering and praying for the Spurs, this is a pretty awesome thing I want to share.

They do a ton of work helping local youth and apparently have an Amazon wishlist filled with very basic everyday needs.

Honestly… how cool would it be if Spurs fans came together and completely cleared it out? 👀

@SpursJackals The Spurs are an inspiration to our community, I’m always proud of them, win, or lose, the players represent the best of what human beings can be on and off the court.

I know Spurs fans are excited about an important game 4, but take some time today to remember the 21 lives lost at Robb Elementary, the survivors and the families who are still healing. May 24th is the worst day ever for so many families.

@salinisalazini Perfect ending to a miserable game! We turned down Cherry to the Nolan underpass, cut through downtown, no honking, just quiet reflection and resolution to be strong for Game 4.

@salinisalazini I thought it was interesting that we’ve beaten all three of the remaining Eastern Conference teams in the finals during our various championship runs.

@DangerATX @SheaSerrano I don’t know if it has any cachet, but my Bulova Marc Anthony Marine Star brings me joy. I’m still looking for my late 1980s Swatch though, it’s somewhere in the garage I’m sure.

@stinaliserio They still sell them in the candy aisle at @HEB!

Life changing news for the pancreatic cancer community. My dad is (pending official approval) starting @RevMedicines’ KRAS G12V clinical trial in May, which is an even more targeted drug (for one of his particular genetic mutations) than daraxonrasib.

Looking forward to the day these medications are available to every pancreatic cancer patient.

Fifty-three years ago…

Two kids.

Thirteen and fourteen years old.

A brand new team in a brand new city.

We didn’t have much money, so we bought half-season tickets.

Twenty-one games.
Two dollars a seat.
Way up in the nosebleeds…

…until we stealthily made our way down to the lower level.

Sometimes even the front row.

Back then, the Spurs weren’t a dynasty.

They were a dream.

We’d get to Hemisfair Arena early, before the doors opened, just to sit outside where the players parked.

And they noticed us.

George Gervin.
James Silas.
@CoachKarl22
Rich Jones (my favorite Spur of all time).
Swen Nater.
Coby Dietrick.

They knew us as those two kids.

The ones who rode the bus from Methodist Hospital, just to be there.

Believing something big had arrived in our sleepy little town.

Fast forward 53 years…

The arena has changed.
The game has changed.
The world has changed.

And so many of the people from those early days…

are no longer here.

But somehow…

We are.

Steve “The Original Rock” DiRocco and me.

Still side by side.
Still watching the Spurs.

This afternoon in a sports bar, surrounded by fans who weren’t even born when it all began.

They don’t remember the ABA.
They don’t remember empty seats.
They don’t remember those nights when it felt like this team belonged to just a few of us.

But we do.

And that’s the beautiful thing about time…

It takes so much away.

But it leaves behind what matters most.

The memories.
The friendships.
The feeling.

Fifty-three years later…

We’re still here.
Still cheering.
Still believing.

Still hoping to see one more championship.

And maybe…
Just maybe…
This is the year.

Because somewhere deep down, we’re still those two kids…

Riding the bus.
Chasing a dream.

And falling in love with a team that would stay with us for a lifetime. 🏀
