... and think it's the best Spurs team ever: because every player contributed in the playoffs and I can remember a significant moment for each of them.

- Tim: just being his usual double-double self, old reliable, record holder for playoffs minutes and playoffs double-doubles, winning rings in 3 different decades
- Tony: for being quietly efficient (finishing as the leader in points and assists per games in the playoffs, despite being hurt or not taking games over, just playing smart and efficient) and dispatching Portland quickly, preserving his teammates energy
- Manu: for being Manu, fearless shooter, fantastic passer, and playing in a more controlled manner
- Leonard: for growing during these playoffs, for his incredible steal from behind on Westbrook to seal the WCF and of course for his Finals MVP and great D on Lebron
- Splitter: for the great D on Dirk in the 1st round to the thunderous "block" on Wade in Game 5, and playing tougher than ever
- Diaw: for being one of the most versatile players in the NBA and for his incredible passing, better than most starting point guards in the league
- Green: for finally having some big games on the road and making Wade a non-factor
- Mills: for his incredible threes, steals, and flops (err... charges ;) )
- Beli: for hitting two huge threes that quieted a rally, both in the WCF and Finals
- CoJo: for that HUGE dunk on Ibaka that killed the myth
- Baynes: for his play against OKC, coming out of nowhere
- Bonner: for scoring on drives to the hoop :wow
- Ayres: hmm, well, ok, I can't remember anything Ayres did... damn :lol

Winning by 20, on the road, in the Finals, against the defending champ, with all 13 players on the roster scoring... wow and respect :clap

Don't forget Tiago "soft serve" Splitter had a great series against Portland. Also Parker was hands down the best player on the floor the first 2 games against OKC
