The least flashy, most effective and efficient team in the league, which is why people hate them.

Really, really enjoy the Spurs. Coached some younger kids this past year, into the summer through the NBA title-- they were 11, and had the typical 11 year old's impression of basketball-- essentially, Hero-ball was the way to win.

I popped in a video of the '03 Spurs, and pointed out that the year they were born, Tim Duncan and company were winning an NBA title; I pointed out that they were playing for another NBA title right then as well-- and it wasn't Hero Ball that got them to the top, and kept them competing there, for their entire lifespan.

They're a lesson in discipline, patience, ball-movement, and team play-- and the sport will be poorer for us all, when the Spurs are dismantled/retired.
