With the playoffs fast approaching, you may ask the question: who must step up for the San Antonio Spurs? The most obvious response from anyone (national media down to the local fan) would be Richard Jefferson.
Jefferson is always the immediate scapegoat. He was a former all-star, yet that respectability diminished when he struggled to produce with the Spurs last season.
