San Antonio fans will recall that shortly after Tim Duncan announced his retirement in 2016, H-E-B featured him in a commercial joining Spurs legends David Robinson, George "Ice Man" Gervin, Sean Elliot and Bruce Bowen in the retirement club.

Two years later, Ginobili is now taking his off-court talents of making origami, whipping up brisket and his "one with nature" ability to the club.
For what it's worth, Bowen also quote tweeted Ginobili, calling out former NBA greats by saying, "We WILL BEAT any 'Retired' starting 5."
