    If you had to guess. Let's define "contender" as reaching the conference finals.

    You just don't know if the next Leonard is at number 9 in this draft. Ane every year you don't hit, you're a year longer away.

    Zero idea.
    I'm glad for what I was able to witness.
    It will never be forgotten.

    This tbh. I've gotten to spend the better part of my adult life watching my team be contenders/win les(I was 21 when they won the first). It was a historic, once in a lifetime run. I'll keep following them and hoping they become regular contenders again but getting to spend some of the best years of my life watching them in their best years is something few fans of few franchises can claim.

    That's true, man. I feel grateful that my formative years aligned with the Spurs dynasty.

    Think it's cool that some people here experienced the Spurs greatest years in their 20s and 30s. I was older when they won their first, but it seemed like the perfect time of my life as well. I have had a blast and feel most fortunate. Yeah we could possibly make the conference finals in five years or so, but who knows?

    My mother passed March 14th 0f '14.
    We would watch Spurs games together and she just knew that our team was going to do it that year.
    '13 was going to be avenged.
    She just missed it.
    Maybe she didn't.
    I know I didn't and that le meant more to me than all of the rest put together and I will go a happy and proud man of our team because they were never meant for so much success and yet they attained so much more.

    I was 15 when they won the first le so I got to seem them win throughout my whole entire young adult years. At this point anything is gravy and as weird as it sounds as long as a team I hate doesn't win a le that is a season where I break even as a fan. Last year was an example of that with the Bucks winning. This year not so much since it looks like the Warriors will win it all.

    Really depends on what kind of trades they make in the future. Also don’t forget we got the 2025 Bulls pick and the 2028 Boston swap. If they can become a playoff team by 2024 they will be able to load up the roster

    My first child was born in March '14. I would record the games and watch them during bottle feedings throughout the night (one half at a time with a couple-hour nap between halves). It was hard to keep from cheering loud, and I'll never forget that playoffs. I hope someday that all 4 of my kids get to watch a championship run with me.

    Jokic, Freak, Kwa Leonard....

    It could happen again.

    I thought 2014 would be it for quite a while. And while it probably will be, darned if 17 were weren't right there until getting Zaza'd.
