I've been a fan of the Spurs for about 20 years and it's really hard to not talk about our #1 draft pick because he's one-of-a-kind.
@Andy - My mom is a massive Spurs fan, drives a custom Spurs Tahoe she won in a contest, and has had season tickets for DECADES.
I'm not a big sports fan, but even I had to marvel at their passing game in the Duncan/Ginobli days: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3y7cWmoBCI
They're one of the few sports teams I've ever seen live and enjoyed.
@Andy - Nah, that's not her.
"My" Spurs Team was back in the days of David Robinson and Sean Elliot, but even then, I really wasn't into them much. But I admired the game they played, and you're right, they have a great culture. Can't get away from the Spurs when you grow up in San Antonio. :D
They not only let go of Dennis Rodman, but Kwahi Leonard. Both were amazing players, but weren't "team players" and that wasn't part of the Spurs culture. And they did just fine without them.
@dolari@driveinsaturday.org oh I could go on about #2 even more than I can go on about Wemby. That guy still makes me mad and I always wish his team the worst.
@dolari@driveinsaturday.org I never paid attention to sports and I still don't watch full games (unless it's the finals and we're in them) but yeah, the Spurs are my team. It helps I'm about the same age as Tim Duncan and they have such a good sports culture. (Your mom isn't Sovia Lauriano is she? 
)
