The only time we lost in the Finals was last year, the only time we didn't have HCA, and it took the flukiest of fluke endings in BOTH Game 6 and Game 7 for us not to win the le. Spurs got this this time. NFW we don't win #5 this year.
4-0
1999: Spurs 78, Knicks 77 (clinched le)
2003: Spurs 93, Nets 83 (took a 3-2 lead)
2005: Spurs 96, Pistons 95 (took a 3-2 lead)
2013: Spurs 114, Heat 104 (took a 3-2 lead)
2014: ???
Let's finish this off like 1999 (except this time, on our home court).

Have the Spurs ever won the championship on their home court?
I honestly don't remember.
Yes, in 2003 (game 6) and 2005 (game 7).
Thanks, I hope they do it here again Sunday.
I hate stats like these. so pointless.
It's not even a "stat" per se, just an interesting fact.
If anything, it means the Spurs have traditionally played well in critical Finals games.

We had also, at one point, never failed to get out of the 1st round with Tim, and never lost a Finals series...
Right. I don't think this past trend provides any insight into tomorrow's game. It's just an interesting trend.
so many irrelevant stats/facts being thrown around ST these days...
Well, it's also something to be proud of...we've never lost a game 5....woo! ...screw you guys
Remember that game 5 has historically been at the lower seed's house since 1985, this year it's at the higher.
