Tim Duncan and David Robinson Anchor the San Antonio Spurs All-Time Squad

I condemned Horry after hip-checking Nash for a stupid decision, then called his pick on David West unnecessary. But if fairness is your objective, Nash also delivered an Oscar-worthy performance, and West should never have been on the floor that late in a blowout.

Everyone on the team jokes that Horry disappears until the playoffs, which is true. Would you rather have him show up only for the first five games of the regular season?

With apologies to Lakers and Rockets fans, Horry's finest moments happened in the 2005 and 2007 playoffs in silver and black. It was in these title runs that Horry cemented his post-season legacy.

He will likely retire, as the Spurs do not want him back after his age bested him in a fouled up repeat run. He picked his teams and teammates well en route to seven rings.

However, none of the championship locker rooms in which he showered and dressed—most of all the Spurs—would look or feel the same without him.

SG: Steve Kerr (1998–2001; 2002–2003)

Kerr should feel luckier than Horry. He followed up a multi-title run with Michael Jordan by joining Tim Duncan and David Robinson. He won two titles in San Antonio, but his former teammates would say he was much more than a three-point ace.

He was the Spurs' comedian and proved humor at every opportunity, including a memorable night emceeing the 2003 championship celebration. I wish I could find audio of that priceless night. Brent Barry assumed this important role in later years.

Kerr was a dependable role player, too.

SG: James Silas (1972-1981)

Since I am sick of writing this piece, I will let his career numbers do the talking.
