已经是八月了，自由市场基本尘埃落定，新赛季赛程也已公布，我们正式进入了NBA休赛期最枯燥乏味的阶段。在 Pounding the Rock，我们经常喜欢找一些有趣的项目或系列专题来消磨时间。这些年来，我们特别钟爱淘汰赛制（Bracket-style）的投票活动，之前办过的内容包括马努·吉诺比利 (Manu Ginobili) 的生涯最佳进球、马刺季后赛最佳瞬间，而去年，我们举办了一场1对1单挑赛，让马刺队史最伟大的32名球员展开强强对话。（几年后重新审视这个榜单应该会很有趣，因为我相信届时一些现役球员肯定会入选，或者排名会有所上升。）
今年夏天，马刺队凭借一路杀入总决赛的表现，重新回到了NBA的顶尖行列，这也让他们正式重新扮演起我们在他们夺冠岁月里所乐见的那种“NBA反派”角色。考虑到这一点，我们决定推出一个有趣的项目来“回敬”一下：让多年来扮演马刺宿敌的各路人物在一场淘汰赛制的投票中展开对决。读者将在投票中选出他们心目中的头号公敌，每组对决的胜者将晋级下一轮，最终的胜者将被冠以“马刺队史头号公敌”的称号。
本次活动将分为四个板块，每个板块包含八个席位，共计32个候选名额：
- 马刺杀手 —— 那些多年来专门给马刺制造大麻烦，和/或投进过让我们永生难忘的绝杀、打出过毁灭性表现的球员。
- 前马刺成员 —— 那些曾效力于马刺，但因背叛、垃圾话或公开表达对马刺的厌恶等原因而沦为公敌的球员。
- 肮脏球员 —— 那些对马刺球员使出过肮脏动作、导致球员受伤（或企图使其受伤）、改变了季后赛对决走向等，让我们永远无法原谅的球员。
- 马刺黑子 —— 一个范围更广的类别，可以包括球员，也可以包括来自其他球队、因各种原因公开且在公共场合抨击马刺的教练、老板等。
我们已经有了自己的一些想法，但在正式排定对阵表之前，我们也想听听大家的意见。请在每个类别中分享你们的想法，并说明选择该人选的原因。有些人选可能显而易见，但也许有一些是你记忆犹新而其他人可能已经遗忘的，所以请把它们都写出来。请在下方评论区留下你的想法，获得点赞最多或被提及频率最高的建议可能会被纳入最终的对阵表中！希望在等待九月底训练营开启的这段时间里，这能成为另一个有趣的系列专题。

Determining the biggest Spurs villain of all time
It’s August, free agency is all but done, the schedule has been released, and therefore we are in the official doldrums of the NBA offseason. At Pounding the Rock, we often like to find fun projects or series to do to pass the time. We’ve especially enjoyed bracket-style tournaments over the years that have included Manu Ginobili’s best plays, the Spurs’ best playoff plays, and last year, we held a 1-on-1 tournament pitting the top 32 Spurs of all time against each other. (That would be an interesting revisit in a few years when I’m sure some current players will have entered or risen up the rankings a bit.)
This summer, the Spurs returned to the upper echelon of the NBA with a Finals run that officially returned them to that NBA villain role we all enjoyed back in their championship days. With that in mind, we decided a fun project would be to return the favor by pitting people who have been villains to the Spurs over the years up against each other in a bracket-style tournament. Readers will vote for the biggest villain in a poll, and the winner of each match-up will advance to the next round, with the eventual winner crowned as the biggest Spurs villain of all time.
There will be four categories that will consist of eight entries each for a total of 32:
- Spurs Killers — players who have specifically given the Spurs the most trouble over the years and/or made devasting shots or plays that will haunt our minds for all eternity.
- Former Spurs — players who once played for the Spurs but became villains either because of betrayal, trash talk, they hate on the Spurs, etc.
- Dirty Players — players who committed dirty plays against the Spurs, injured (or attempted to injure) a player, altered a playoff match-up, etc., and we will never forgive them.
- Spurs Haters — a more open category that can include players as well as coaches, owners, etc. from outside the organization who openly and publicly trashed the Spurs for whatever reason.
We have our own ideas but would also like your input before setting up the bracket. Give us some of your thoughts for each category and include why you have that person. Some may be extremely obvious, but there also may be ones that you specifically remember that many others may not, so include them all. Put your ideas in the comments below, and the most liked or frequently suggested may get used in the final bracket! Hopefully this will be another fun series while we wait for Training Camp to get here at the end of September.
