The Spurs had a Championship locked up, way back in 1979, and got jobbed by the refs. After Game 7 their coach, Doug Moe, made the comment, "You'd think it was fixed" and got fined by the league. Spurs fans rallied and collected the fine money - in pennies. Half a million pennies.
I wasn't a Spurs fan before that. I was outraged by the officiating in that series, as a sort of neutral observer. But fans collecting pennies to give the finger to the league? THAT made me a Spurs fan for life.
Greatest leadership moment in all of Sports featuring the greatest leader in all of sports tbh
Cool. I didnt know that
Forgot about this gem. Duncan hates jefferson as much as we do!
Tim's ejection by Joey Crawford for laughing from the bench.
Not really "greatest", but more WTFest moment.
As the great whottt said, everything after that was gravy.
Although I gotta admit this was pretty damn sweet:
Oh man, a whottt mention. RIP whottt means a of a lot more than RIP Apo by comparison tbqh.
As the great whottt said, everything after that was gravy.
Although I gotta admit this was pretty damn sweet:
Agree that 2014 was the ultimate redemption story. So sweet.

you get accused of recency bias, but 5 after 6 was such cathartic experience for the franchise, players and fans..Nothing may ever tops it ,IMO..
My favorite moment was '99 ... until 2014 happened.
This is a good reminder of how damn good lucky we Spurs fans have been. I've been a Spurs fan since 1987 and I could point to hundreds of amazing moments. Most franchises would struggle to put together a top ten.
Duncan Ginobili and Parker playing 'cups' on the bench
Kurtis Blow concert after Spurs played the Mavs in Hemisfair Arena, April 1985.
Underrated moment near the top of the list: Back in 1999 when Pop was about to get fired. The Spurs were playing the Rockets and ownership was ready to fire him if the Spurs lost the game. Instead, the Spurs play a near flawless game and curbstomp the Rockets. After the game, Avery Johnson interrupts Pop's postgame interview to give him the game ball and say the win was dedicated to him. Pop breaks down crying and can't continue the interview.
Spurs have been rolling ever since
How is this thread full of positive recollections? As much as you idiots whine about how terrible things are I'm surprised you have anything good to say.

Too many great moments, tbh.... feel we're spoiled... That said, there was something thoroughly enjoyable about our last championship... emotionally, aesthetically, I keep thinking we're never going to see a team play the way that team played. I don't if it was the drive from the previous season, or things just clicking at the right time, or what... but that was just such an enjoyable ride, tbh...
My favorite Spurs moment has been the last fifteen years with the San Antonio Spurs absolutely owning the Jazz of Utah.
1) Memorial Day Miracle
2) 1
3) 5
4) Horry
5) Kobe crying
Yep, remember that card well and still have it in a case upstairs. That is one of my fave cards to this day.This is way up there, the Tim Duncan game I call that one .Not really a play or a series....but here goes.
When I was a kid...my mother bought me and my brother a couple packs of basketball cards. I was so pissed because my brother got a Michael Jordan card and I didn't. Then, I found out I got the most expensive card in the entire set. The Admiral's rookie card is the reason I'm a Spurs fan. By far, my favorite "Spurs moment".
Lest I forget, a favorite moment was when Kevin O'Keefe had to finally accept defeat and cease being a 'sports journalist.'
