The Spurs won the title? Says who?

Published on October 31, 2007 in Uncategorized. 1 Comment

Here’s what happened on The 620 SportsLine with Dave Burns:

* Steve Kerr and Mike D’Antoni joined Burnsy on The 620 Sportsline for their weekly shows. D’Antoni talked about the Sonics and Kevin Durant, whom he coached with Team USA this summer.

* On the subject of the Spurs ring ceremony last night, D’Antoni said he didn’t watch after San Antonio won their series and, “didn’t realize they won (the title).” Joking of course, but there was an interesting comment about competing with the Spurs this year and how last year, “was left unanswered.”

* Steve Kerr talked about the butterflies he had before games as a player returning now that he’s the Suns General Manager. He also discussed how last year was a natural progression for the Suns - ala the Pistons beating the Celtics, the Bulls beating the Pistons, etc.
