HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS – Who says the San Antonio Spurs are a crusty old bunch?
Not us. Not when it becomes clear that the NBA’s best team is filled with guys that are on the cutting edge of fashion, pop culture, music and entertainment.
You don’t believe it?
Fine. Show us another crew that turns a Lady Gaga concert into a team outing … as the Spurs did the other night.
Tim Griffin of the Spurs Nation blog of the Express News explains:
Several Spurs forgot about their disappointing performance in Miami with a respite from basketball after returning back to San Antonio the following night.
Spurs guard Tony Parker said about half of his team attended the Lady Gaga concert Tuesday night at the AT&T Center. Parker posted several pictures of the concert at his Facebook account. And Manu Ginobili uploaded several pictures on his Plixi account of the headliner.
“It was great. She’s a great performer,” Parker said of the concert. “She did great. I like her stuff.”
Ginobili didn’t talk to the media Wednesday as he recovered from a sore throat that was noticeable after the Miami game. But Parker said he couldn’t tell if Ginobili was screaming during the show.
“I don’t know,” Parker said. “He was sitting in front of me. I don’t know if he was screaming. But he was moving his head. I could see that.”
Eldest Spur Antonio McDyess was one of those who didn’t attend.
“Maybe the young guys were there, but not me,” McDyess said, chuckling. “I don’t know one of her songs.”
We didn’t say they were all cool!
now thats a motivation!!..hahahahaha
should motivate them to beat the “confident” team of Dallas. Terry’s an idiot and a bully
Now i´m not so sure if that tells us anything about their youth. But it sure tells us something about their coolness…I guess no team in the whole nba is so uncool to attend a lady gaga concert and worst of all, tell it in public.
They’re confident to tell it to the public because they’re winning and they are leading the league. Whats bad is for a team to go to a concert even in the midst of losing streak. They deserve to enjoy themselves sometimes.
Definetly, Who cares, only idiots will blame a team for losing if they made it public what they did socially, the smart ones will know, theres aways going to be good and bad teams and regardless of they social events making new, they are doing it…………
