Deep inside you badly want the Spurs to repeat, but you and i both know that that won't happen and never will. Discuss.
I'm hoping all the Spurs follow Tim's pre-christmas example and put out as much as he does.
We want Tim especially, but also Manu and Tony, to get that one B2B championship.
I thinking Tim's effort now, a part of the season where he often doesn't knock himself out, is an indication of all-season goal of getting the repeat and top or very high seed, everybody's health permitting, as always.
Meh! I'll take the 5 championships. Discuss.
The Spurs are the 4th most winning franchise in NBA history...
That's good enough for me.
The Heat Repeated and are not seen as being in the same league as the Spurs far as greatness is concerned. The Spurs have now put themselves in the mix with 2000's Lakers, 90's Bulls, and the 80's Lakers/Celtics.
The Greatest NBA Franchises of all Time.
Celtics
Lakers
Bulls
Spurs
If Spurs win 6 they could bump Bulls for top 3.
..that did not repeat.
But did they repeat though?
I say again.....

Houston repeated and nobody cared, Miami did and is not a great team, most big market teams from the 90s to this date have repeated... I will take 5 rings over 2 in a row any hour of the century.
Celtics have only won four since the ABA/NBA merger. So the real order is:
Lakers 10 (5 Showtime / 5 Shaq+Pau+Bynum+Artest+Odom)
Bulls 6
Spurs 5
Celtics 4
Also, Bird never repeated and only won three. And the last Showtime le should have gone to the Pistons but Isiah sprained his ankle and still almost won it in 6.
Actually the Spurs are the most winning team of any of the four major team sports in the last 15 years. Football, baseball, hockey....it's not just basketball that they're on top in.
that never repeated.
Robinson did, during his MVP season.
He's got a point... they don't defend.
I agree. Defending a le is much more meaningful and difficult than winning one when you are under the radar and nobody is out to get you. Only the truly elite can accomplish that.
Agreed. In which case they are not as "elite" as the media is crowning them. Spurs is the regular season champion that sometimes win championships, but cant defend it.
Larry Bird never repeated.. Are the 86 Celts not a great team?

The Boston Celtics is elite. They repeated. But the Spurs though?
Being the Number One team in all sports for all these years speaks of the significance of repeating. A two year run is not much of a run really. The Spurs have been on top, I'm safe to assume, the majority of the OP's life. After winning our fifth it's hard to complain about much. It will be fun defending our championship for sure.
Larry Bird's Celts repeated????????????
you must mean Bill Russell's.. With 8 teams in the NBA..
the BOSTON CELTICS repeated. They are elite. The Spurs though?
