Here's an excerpt from the full article.
3. Major development that's being overlooked?
Haberstroh: The San Antonio Spurs (http://espn.go.com/nba/team/_/name/sa/san-antonio-spurs). Maybe it's the familiar faces. Maybe it's the small market. Maybe it's the disappointment last season. Whatever it is, I still get the feeling that people aren't taking them seriously. Get this: They're riding a 13-game win streak with an average win margin of 18 points. They're playing at another level right now.
Nowell: The Spurs are every bit the buzzsaw they were in the regular season. The least talked about No. 1 seed in years is making mincemeat of a team that was suggested to have an advantage -- the Millsap/Jefferson/Favors lineup -- that would expose the Spurs' weaknesses. Instead, San Antonio has looked more dominant than any other team in the field so far.
