The San Antonio Spurs
The San Antonio Spurs are my favorite team, I love watching the games. I am born and raised in San Antonio. The San Antonio Spurs are great players, they play great and work very hard to win a game. They are a great team, they also get along and play together very well as a team. The spurs are one of four former American basketball association team. Tony parker, Tim Duncan, and Manu Ginobili are the best players ever, they play so good. They shoot a lot of points. They have been playing for the Spurs for a very long time. They love to play for the spurs. They love San Antonio very much, and they love the river walk. The San Antonio Spurs won four NBA championships, in 1999, 2003, 2005, and 2007. The San Antonio Spurs are playing so much to win, I believe in the Spurs I know they can do it, just watch all the games, and say Go Spurs Go, and they can hear the fans, all the Spurs need is there loves one, family, friends and their fans. We are going for other Championship in 2008. I can’t wait to see the Spurs win, let’s see what happens. Spurs players are active members of the San Antonio former are still active in San Antonio. The Spurs fans have been among the most loyal in the NBA. Attendance records while playing at the Alamodome. The Spurs has the largest crowed whenever the NBA finals start, the playoff just started, the spurs has so many fans what I heard is about 35,000 people can go to a game, and more fans that go out to watch the game or watch the game at home. The San Antonio Spurs the best team in the NBA, they play great and very good, all we need to do is bet all the teams and we are the championships in 2008. Say it loud people Go Spurs Go. The AT&T center is the biggest place were the San Antonio Spurs play, its can have about 35, 000 people or more. Each sit cost different, some sits cost a lot but it doesn’t matter it’s about the Spurs. When the Spurs win the Championships we always have a fun time , going downtown to the river walk and the Alamodome. When the San Antonio win a title, the San Antonio Spurs Jam up the Street downtown, people buying a lot of newspapers, Spurs shirts, and a lot of other things about the Spurs, we love it when the San Antonio Spurs win a Championships, because we get to have fun at the River Center Parade, and the celebration at the Alamodome for the San Antonio Spurs. When we win Spurs fan are happy, screaming, honk car horns and saying go Spurs go. Everyone in San Antonio are so happy and so excited win the San Antonio Spurs When the 1999, 2003, 2005, and 2007 Championship, and pretty soon in 2008, I wish the spurs will work and play harder so we can win this year GO Spurs GO. I love going downtown to have fun and having fun going to see the San Antonio Spurs. We also see the Spurs floats down the San Antonio River Walk on the boats, where all the fans can see them and take a lot of pictures. I want to talk about David Robinson, he was playing for the San Antonio Spurs in 1999-2002, he was also the MVP in 1999, and Tim Duncan has been in the spurs for a long time also, he has be the MVP in 2003 and 2005. This year in 2007 it was Tony Parker, he was play when they called him the MVP for 2007, Tim was so happy for Tony Parker, and the team played so hard to win a game and tony Parker did his best just like Tim Duncan. The San Antonio Spurs color are black, white and silver, when the San Antonio play a game at home they wear white and black, and when the play a game somewhere else they were black and white, so other are the San Antonio Spurs colors, they were when they play a game. Well that’s all about the San Antonio Spurs so next I am going to talk about the three biggest fans I interview, Well what I did was I interview the three biggest fans that love the San Antonio Spurs so much and a lot , which I am the San Antonio Spurs number one fan. Those three people I interview love the spurs, wears there spurs shirt every time the Spurs play a game and goes to some game, or watch it on TV. I had so much fun interview three fans, I didn’t know what to do so I think this was a good idea to interview people and tell them question about the San Antonio Spurs, so let’s get started on the people I interview. Well the three people I interview their names are Katie Lopez, James Melinda, Maria Gomez, those are the three people I interview. The first person I interview was Katie Lopez, she said she loves the Spurs so much and they are the best, she also goes to a lot of their games or sometimes watch the game on TV with her family. She wears the Spurs shirt every day, she love Menu his is a great player and a lot of people like Manu he plays great and when the Spurs are about to play a game, Katie said its good luck to wear a Spurs Shirt so people know the Spurs are going to play, and also to let people know she is a Spurs fan, she also said she was so happy when the Spurs won the 2007 championships, everyone was happy when the San Antonio Spurs won.

She also said she is the biggest fan ever and she will always love the San Antonio Spurs, she said Go Spurs Go. That was great when I heard a lot of the Spurs with Katie Lopez, she had a lot of good information. It’s my second person I interview his name was James Melinda, he was also a Spurs fan, he said he want to every Spurs game, he never miss one game, and he also has a lot of family that loved the spurs, her wears his Spurs t-shirt all the time when the spurs plays a game, and he love to have a cook out when the spurs play a game, so the family can get together and hang out as a happy family.

He loves the spurs so much, he will do anything to see the San Antonio Spurs, and he said his favorite player in the team is Tim Duncan. The third person I interview her name was Mary Garza is just a little girl she is 10 years old, and I think it would be fun to talk to a little girl about the Spurs, she said she love the Spurs, and she goes to some of the Spurs games, and watch other games at home. With her mother and father, she said she love the Spurs just like her parents, she love going downtown and seeing the Spurs at the parade. She also said she can’t wait to, the Spurs when. She also said that she is the biggest Spurs fan ever, and she will love to meet tony parker. She was so cute talking about the Spurs.

I watch every game on T.V, I have never went to game before because it cost a lot to go, but when I see the Spurs o T.V, I feel that I am at the game, when I am sitting down and eating some pizza. I can’t wait to see who wins 2008, I am going to pray so much for the Spurs they are a very good team, and they know how to play, we win in 1999, 2003, 2005, and in 2007. Let the best win the championships GO SPURS GO. That why I wanted to talk about the San Antonio Spurs, I love the Spurs so much, I wish I can meet the team one day, that will make me so happy.
