not very sure, but how 'bout Bowen's consecutive games played? (crosses fingers)
I, for one, am still impressed by that 18-0 record the Spurs have against the Celtics under Tim Duncan. To go undefeated against any professional sports franchise for so long is pretty damn impressive. My guess is that the Spurs and Tim Duncan are not the butt end of many cracks in Beantown these days!
Any others?

How bout that its an ODD year and It's in the stars!
I like the odd year thing. I also liked that recent 17 or 18 game winning streak against Utah.
Oh, does anyone know where to find out the Spurs' all time record against each franchise?
If anywhere, maybe 82games.com
The odd year thing is fine and dandy.
There's also that once a decade thing to consider.....1987......1997.....2007.
Can we win the draft lottery and win the NBA championship in the same season???
Don't jinx anything.
duncan hasnt ever lost an opener...i think
All-Time Head-to-Head Records
Here's the list in order of winning percentage:

.546 UTH -- 77-64
.544 BOS -- 37-31
.543 DEN -- 132-111*
.532 SEA -- 66-58

.496 LAL -- 62-63
.488 PNX -- 61-64
.485 ATL -- 33-35
* - includes ABA games
Curiously, if the Spurs sweep Atlanta this year, take 2 of 3 from LAL, and split with Portland, they'll be at or above .500 all-time against every franchise in the NBA but one. If they take 3 from Phoenix, they'll be above .500 all-time against every franchise.

That's just disgusting.
Spoiled ass Spurs fans
WOW...just wow
Does any team have over a .500 against every team? That'd be an interesting statistic to hold, thus making us the most winning team overall? muhaha
Lakers
Well, the only teams that conceivably could would be LA, PNX, and ATL, since those are the only teams that have winning records against San Antonio.
I checked. I had figured Jim's answer was right, but it turns out that we were both wrong on that one -- LA is significantly under .500 against Boston all-time (115-149, .435).
Phoenix is under .500 against Boston (44-58, .431), Los Angeles Lakers (82-155, .416), Milwaukee (56-60, .482), New York (49-54, .475), and Washington (48-54, .470).
Atlanta is under .500 against Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Detroit, Lakers, Miami, Milwaukee, Orlando, Phoenix, Portland, Sacramento, Utah, and Washington.

To be fair, the Spurs franchise never had to deal with the dynasty Celtics of the 60's. The Spurs have just recently gotten over .500 against Boston (due to their recent run of success against the C's); had they been in the league in the 60's and playing against those Boston teams, I suspect the Spurs would be under .500 against Boston, too.
Boston, however, is under .500 against 2 other franchises: Milwaukee (81-86, .485), and New Orleans/Oklahoma City/Charlotte (32-33, .492 -- before last night's loss).
Here's some more facts and streaks concerning Boston and all time NBA records:

Spurs are poised to move into second place in all time winning PCT this season, supplanting the Celtics.
We are also the only team other than Celtics or Lakers 400+games over 500%...we're not quite where they are...but then again, we spotted them 30 years...the fact that we are the only other team 400 over shows just how successful this franchise has been...from Gervin, to Drob, to Duncan....

Here's another:
Guy hasn't updated his site in a while but I am pretty sure we belong on that list...I show our record over the last 5 years to be 293 wins...which should put us right there between the Jazz and Sonics, but the PCT is probably not good enough...Code:Best 5-Year Record: Years Team W L Pct. NBA les 1. 81-86 Boston Celtics 311 99 .759 2 2. 85-90 L.A. Lakers 309 101 .754 2 3. 83-88 Boston Celtics 308 102 .751 2 84-89 L.A.

Pretty sure if we can pull off another 63+ win season we'll be way up on that list and close to or over 300 wins in 5 years, not sure about the PCT but I know it's up there.
Best 2 year records:
If the Spurs can duplicate last year's record they'll tie the Jazz for 10th place on that list.Code:Best 2-Year Record: Years Team W L Pct.

While you geeks are at it, what is Pop's W/L record? ... and where does he rank amongst the best ever (with respect to W/L)?
TIA.
Pop is 519-252 all-time (including tonight's win), plus he's 76-47 in the playoffs. This puts him 24th all time in terms of wins, according to NBA.com I believe a 50 win season will put Pop in the top 20.
I knew that before this season's opener, but didn't want to jinx it.
Now 10-0.
does anyone have the winnin records in the tim duncan era?? im not talkin about the 70% winnin rate, i want the h2h details....
"Dallas went 19-0 last season when Howard scored at least 20 points, but is 0-1 now -- another reminder that things are already different in 2006-07."
From tonights AP report
yep.
Duncan never lost a season game opener and tonight ended the Mavs' 6(?)-game opening games streak too!
