Team First Integrity
Because they may have the only fanbase in sports in which fans of one great player on the team are compelled somehow to hate another great player on the team.
Team First Integrity
Because they're the most un-NBA basketball team out there.
Because of their structure, their system and their dedication.
Because of Tony Parker, Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobli, Michael Finley and Money Mason.
And, of course, because of the spiffy black away uniforms.
Because the level-headed, intelligent, patient wisdom of the team and the the people who run the team are in stark contrast to the rabid homerism, small mindedness, illiteracy, phobia, and general stupidity that are allowed to prosper on spurstalk. And also because Tim Duncan doesn't have a messianic complex and wouldn't erase posts on an internet site that dare to disagree with him.
david robinson started me watching the spurs and now i love them because of mr. duncan but i'm a lifer for the spurs so even when the sad day that timmy retires, i will remain a fan
Gregg Popovich
Hard to give just one reason. So this is my one reason, split into three parts lol.
1: Mr Tim Duncan
2. I've lived in SA since I was 2, the Spurs will always be my team.
3. There is something to be said for being not only the winningest franchise in pro sports over the last 10 years, but doing so in a classy manner. None of our guys mouth off, none of our guys are 'thugs', none of our guys showboat or hog the ball. We epitomize intelligence and fairness. We win as one team and we lose as one team.
In this era of profesiional sports its truly rare to have 'professional' athletes. And we always have a team full of them. <3 the Spurs!.
Werd, da funda-mizzle....... fo-shizzle!!
If Pop wasn't coaching like a drunken fool, I'd consider putting him down as well.
Mengke Bateer! And his translator who thought he was one of the coaches!
Spurs are all class baby. They represent the NBA better than any team, yet don't get quite the recognition and respect for it. Their success is all the more incredible because the odds against them are greater than for most teams. I admire and repect the way the players carry themselves and their hard play. They represent San Antonio so well, and basically put it on the map for a lot of people in the states and across the world. Where would SA be without the Spurs? They have had three incredible basketball legends and a great history. I love the uniforms and the coyote too. The Spurs are just awesome.
That dude was hilarious. Jimmy Chan I think?
At the Alamodome celebration in 03, he spoke for Bateer and I am pretty sure he was drunk.

They are the epitome of what everyone says they want in a good, respectable sports team... and everyone hates them for it.
He was the reason I began to follow them; a great player, and more importantly, a great man.
Because they are the team who plays the sport to nearly perfection, no matter if it is 'boring'. They only care for winning, which is what matters in the end, and they gotten 'over theirselves'. Because of Timmy, The admiral, Tony, manu, bruce pop..and everyone who has been in these organization knows how to get the job done, and they do it in a classy, selflessness way.
GO SPURS GO
This is gay for even you guys.
because if youre a real basketball fan, you'd love to see how basketball SHOULD be played.
Tim Duncan, greatest power forward in NBA history.
