2005 shakes its head sadly at you.

Duncan coming back?

[GAustex]

1999 was some stout defense

[Marcus Bryant]

No, but the free agent moves have addressed the primary defensive weakness.

:lmao

[K...]

best new age defense? I'll give you that although LMA, Fathead murray was pretty tight

No Duncan and Bowen, so no. But you really can't compare anyway. The New NBA doesn't allow defense to be played that way.

2016 Spurs were historic on defense with Green, #2, Duncan and LA. Doubt they can reach that level especially with the rules getting even softer, but our defense should be Top 5 in the league if not the best

[JeffDuncan]

Damn straight. There's always potential.

Actual results...... we'll see.

Crunch time White and Murray at point of attack. Back line Carrol, Morris and Poetl. Maybe not in the era where perimeter defense wasn't as critical but in todays NBA?

If ‘Ever’ can be defined by situation and time?....probably still a hard no.

Duncan coming back?

This plus David was important too... Oh and Bowen... That asshole.

[Genovaswitness]

put down the crack pipe

[Leetonidas]

Did you forget there was a team with prime Duncan and slightly post prime Robinson?

[timtonymanu]

Last I checked, Wombat, Forbes and Beli are still on the roster. That guarantees at least 100 PPG from the opponent
