Spurs fans have recently said farewell to a number of beloved Spurs who won rings in San Antonio. Now we recall the departures of the players who never had a chance to lift the Larry O'Brien trophy as a Spur.
Since the 1976 NBA-ABA merger, there have been just four postseasons that did not feature the Spurs, and only one since 1989. But I still shudder at the thought of the five-year stretch from 2008-2013 that occasionally featured the Big Three and not much else. With that being said, every true Spurs fan cheered their lungs out for these same players.
