Spurs play a really exciting style, get up and down the court and they're awesome at passing and they make a ton of 3's. Just looked them up, 39.3% from 3 as a team. Damn. 5 guys who made at least 50 3's and shot over 40%.
These aren't the 2005 Spurs.
Agreed. I think that casual NBA fans don't appreciate how good the Spurs have been / are this year because they aren't flashy.
Also in a way I feel like they are kind of old news. They were the top seed last year and lost in the first round and they haven't made it to the West finals in what, 3 or 4 years, so to an extent I can understand people sort of saying "prove it". But so far, they are definitely proving it. Pop is such an incredible coach.
To be fair, they were really banged up last year when the playoffs started.

yeah, just saying the general fan perception remembers them as the 1 seed that lost to the 8.
Is this David Stern's worst nightmare?
So does he dip the ball in dry ice before an important San Antonio/Indiana free throw or force Duncan and Hibbert to play minor league baseball for a year?He would never let that happen...

I meant to say baseball...Don't overcomplicate things. It's all in the officiating.
