No flash or flair, these dudes are ultimately entertainers and that's why they're paid as much as they are and for casuals his style of play wasn't that exciting.
I love the post game so watching him has it's moments but that's one reason why he doesn't get the props a player with his resume would normally receive
Plus Popovich and Buford have had as much of a hand in the Spurs being a playoff team for as long as they've been, and that history basically extends back to when Robinson joined the team.
Can't expect a lot of pizazz from a 4, but yeah, his game was rather reticent and reserved.

I meant to say chivalry. I guess the autocorrect kicked in. They can be so random. But yes, his unrestrained, unabashed chivalry held him back. He's also a pillow muncher.

You clearly never watched him play if you think he never had any great games.

Yes, I did watch many. I don't think I worded myself very well if you take my statement without a grain of salt; I don't literally mean none, but games that stand out, those games are few and far between. He was super consistent.
