Round 1 against the Grizz last year (not that I have too many options to pick from as a Clipperfan)... still though, it's tough to top a series in which your team has the greatest comeback win in NBA playoff history in Game 1, and your bench wins a Game 7 on the road...
Redneck Grizzlies fans: "See You Sunday!"
2003 - Detroit over Orlando: Tayshaun Prince's coming out party. Stopping the McGrady one-man show.
2004 - Detroit over Indiana: A masterful series with some of the best defense ever played by 2 teams in a series. This was the de facto 2004 NBA Finals.
1985 vs. Celts
2000 vs Blazers I was there riots and all
Honorable mention to that diaper stain, Jerome James.Non-Finals, has to be 2003 Lakers. Second place? Probably 2007 Suns for the eternal butthurt it caused, or 2005 Suns due to entertainment value.
Special shout out to 2005 Sonics. Can't really go wrong with this series of events: 1) Sonic Fan celebrates in the stands and saves loudest ovation of the series for when Duncan hurts his ankle in Game 6 2) Duncan is able to return to the game 3) Spurs win Game 6 to clinch the series 4) Emo Sonic Fan never witnesses another playoff game again 5) Sonics move to OKC. 6) S
If we're talking all-time I'd go with the 2003 finals. The Admiral sails off into the sunset with a ring, the asterisk talk gets quieted, as a fan looking at that roster there was the nostalgic feeling of an end of an era coupled with some real excitement about the potential of the team going forward. That does feel a little like cheating since almost none of that has to do with the actual opponent or the basketball played. In that regard I'd probably go with the win over the 2005 Suns. The games were quite watchable, generally compe ive, and decided by the Spurs shining through with lockdown D and superior team play down the stretch. I'm pretty much over the media's indifference to the Spurs now but back then it was really nice to see the "boring" Spurs stick it to the team the media had been nut riding for much of the season.
And Jerome James who didnt respect us after game 4Non-Finals, has to be 2003 Lakers. Second place? Probably 2007 Suns for the eternal butthurt it caused, or 2005 Suns due to entertainment value.

Eat , James
That's a very short list TBH
Ooooh, that 99 series against the Blazers should be in the mix as well. MDM, subsequent sweep of a team with more talented roster - real corner turner for the Spurs as a franchise.
Had we lost game 2, it would have been a close one
Sean's 3 demoralized the Blazers

I'll have the 2001 WCF, please.
1999 was pretty sweet, shutting down the building Magic seroconverted in with a 4-0 sweep.
'99 vs the Blazers. Sean's 3, a magic moment that I'll never get tired of remembering.
Kobe/Fisher tears still taste ohh so yummy. I'll never forget that. Not only did the Spurs win, they made the other team CRY on national telivision.... EPIC!
Unfortunately, I don't have any Finals victories to choose from.
2010 WCSF against the Spurs is probably my favorite. Even though we swept them, the series was very compe ive. Nash taking over a tight 4th quarter with only one eye was amazing.
Goran Dragic's 23-point 4th quarter explosion in Game 3 is probably one of the most amazing things I've ever seen, in and outside of sports.
Short but sweet.
tlongII with the 3 decade old goods. Props
not really, dat list just make you sound bitter ova the many times lakers take yo cookie without caring.
This.The most dominating performance by far for Mr. Kobe Bryant as he punked the entire Spurs front court. ting on Duncan and Robinson often. It was one of the most dominating performances by any player to ever play the game. It featured the famous photo of Timmie sitting on the bench with his head down crying while Pop is consoling him, patting him on the back saying its ok Timmie, they're just too good!
