I'd say it has more to do with being fortunate enough to draft Robinson and Duncan with #1 picks.
The group of individuals that own the spurs (excluding the corperations) is worth several billion dollars.

You look at that list and the only winner (championships) in the last little while are all guys lower down the line, with exception to Detroit. The guys that have money doesn't really equate to winning on the court...interesting indeed.
Cuban was one of the very first Internet billionaires. I think he sold broadcast.com for $1B about 10 years ago. I'd bee surprised if he has multiplied it 15x since then. I couldn and would relax and enjoy a single $B.
Cuban didn't make his money just once, he made it twice.
He sold it at the top and Shorted it all the way back down.
The Guy made a great move.
At the peak of his wealth, he was probably worth somewhere close to 4.
yeah after Hakeem, and before Yao,
the Rockets were always at the top of spending teams.
Hate hate hate, overa freakin bench player who had a steak shop, un in real.
Once again, The Spurs manage to do the mostest with the leastest.
Weird that Cuban is only in 8th place.
I also thought the Maloofs were a lot richer than they are.
He just traded Mo Taylor for Vin Baker and Moochie Norris.
Yeah because JVG didn't hate Taylor so much that he was on IR.
Didn't see him match on Posey either.
The Rockets' payroll has been remarkably steady for the past few years. It stayed right around 50 million for three seasons until Yao came into the picture; that seems to have loosened the purse strings as their spending is going up 10% each year since.

They didn't match because Posey didn't fit the Van Gundy offense and Jim Jackson did. Also, West gave a contract double what any other team offered.
No wonder Shaq wanted to go to Miami.
