The Story Behind The Spurs Dynasty
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 11. 2021
- When you talk about dynasties in the NBA, most bring up the Boston Celtics in the ’50s and ‘60s, the showtime Los Angeles Lakers of the ‘80s, or the mighty Chicago Bulls of the ‘90s. Few bring up San Antonio, where the Spurs captured 5 titles between 1999 and 2014. To say they were consistent would be a massive understatement, as shown by their 22 straight playoff appearances from 1998 to 2019. Along the way, they established a blueprint for success and a culture of winning that teams today are constantly trying to emulate.

idk why but the fact that they celebrated their first finals win by having a Starcraft LAN party is fucking hilarious to me
now that's representative of the era
NERDS!
Because they already know that more championships are on the way! 😎
I remember having LAN parties in high school in the late 90s early 2000s. Starcraft was the game of choice of course.
Cause it is hilarious 😂
No matter what. The spurs duncan era is and always will be the "gold standard" of a true basketball.
21🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🐐
I'm sure the Lakers, Celtics and Bulls have something to say about this nonsense 🤣😂🤣😂
😥
@@AZ-vf1qe They are great franchises, I agree. However, in my own opinion, Duncan's Spurs had made the most beautiful, team-oriented and fundamentally sound basketball I've ever seen and that is the "gold standard" for me. If you don't agree, then it's your choice and I respect it. But please don't be rude, just understand that we have different points of view.
2014 man 😐🤩
Appreciate ya'll highlighting the Spurs in a video that isn't about something terrible happening to the organization. Been a Spurs fan since the 80s and will always be a fan so long as they continue the Spurs way.
Fan since 02
Spurs for life!!!!
Manu Ginobili is an absolute legend. He was my favourite player all through high school and he was shredding defences with the euro step long before todays generation was even in the NBA.
Even 38year old Timmy in his last year could take todays bigs around the park. Big fundamental, class act, redefined greatness.
In his last season he has the third best defensive win shares in the NBA. Clearly he can still play, his defense is still elite. He can still give you a double double quietly.
yeah if kawhi was a real spur we woulda won it all tims last season
For about the first 30-40 games of his last season, Duncan was still averaging a double double
Clip of Ginobili sonning Ray Allen and then yamming it over bosh will never get old.
Never! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Popovich’s coaching tree is amazing
Larry Brown’s coaching tree is better
@@johnranielrabina7225 is that even a fair comparison? Larry Brown's coaching tree includes all of Pop's coaching tree in it...
Timmy is the goat, btw Duncan first sweep shaq and kobe in 98-99 also:
19 playoffs games in their prime (99 to 03-04)
Duncan
27 PPG 56 TS% 13 Rebounds 4.3 Assists 2.5 Blocks
Shaq
24 PPG 53.6 TS% 13 Rebounds 2.6 Assists 2.3 Blocks

"The Spurs spent the plane ride back to San Antonio playing Star Craft on their laptops" - bursted my drink all over my screen, but its all good, its a good laugh! #GoSpursGo!
The winningest Dynasty of modern sports.
Game 7 of the 2013 finals was not in San Antonio. That was the last season they had the 2-3-2 format.
This dynasty deserves a 30 for 30💯 #GSG
i hope the spurs succeed and find their next franchise cornerstone through the draft once again. even as a warriors fan, I wish them all the best and hope their management can make the right decisions to be a dynasty once again
They have in Wemby 🔥
I legit laughed out loud hearing they have played StarCraft on the way home. Now I love them even more.
Duncan is the most complete player of all time and has arguably the perfect nba career of all players
He also had the gift of humility, I love John Stockton for the same reason. They were just solid, fundamental players who did their jobs quietly and better than anyone else.
1 away from matching Jordan
1 away from matching Jordan
Tim Duncan is the best power forward of all time, change my mind.
Only fax here
I'm just gonna counter this statement for the sake of participating. He's the PF GOAT in my book too.
So, here it goes: coz he ain't a PF, he's s a Center.
He is
People really try to tell me if Duncan was drafted 10 years earlier he would be a bench player smh 🤦🏽♂️
@@ForzasPanda they’re gaslighting you just walk away at that point
Crazy to think Kawhi stopped the Miami Heat & Golden State Warriors from three peating.
@TheRealBandito As if they would have beat Bron if Love and Irving were healthy in 2015...
@TheRealBandito lolz. I was talking about 2015. Love and Irving injured.
The spurs stopped the heat not kawhi
@@thatboylije7892 he was literally mvp bozo
@@Silverswooosh ok and? they gave finals mvp to iggy one year
Now I know why the Spurs implement load management because of Duncan and Ginobili got injured and derailed their title run back in 2000 and 2011.
2011 less so..they were not winning the title that year imo and manu was playing...in 2000 duncan being out was tough
@@razkable uhm they are the number 1 seed in 2011.
@@razkable 2011? You mean the year Ginobili broke his arm and wore a cast in the playoffs? Yeah ok 👍🏼 lol
@@kl2389 yeah, they were the number 1 seed but we all know that being number 1 seed doesn't mean you are guaranteed to win the championship, and in 2011 I don't think Spurs beat Heat
Glad I celebrated all 5 of those championships and meet Tim Tony and Manu and gotten their autographs. Very blessed to have witnessed so many exciting games with them 3🙏💯 my favorite when Manu bombed a 3 against GSW in 2013 game 1!
Salute 2 u
@@dominiquejones3805 gracias bro💯
I love Spurs because of the Big 3 and Great Pop.
I like how you forgot to mention the 98-99 sweep of prime Shaq's Lakers on their way to their first championship.
spurs loves heartbreaking losses. 2004 fisher buzzerbeater, 2006 manu foul on dirk, 2013 ray allen shot.
could have easily been 8 championships in 2004 don't know if they pistons in the finals in 2006 suns don't have amare in the wcf spurs beat wade shaq in 2006 and 28 seconds away in 2013
22 straight playoff appearances will do that. Plenty more good moments though
Watching this, is like my life is being review as a San Antonio fan since the days of the Hemisphere arena . Wow love it !
As a Spurs fan we were broccoli compared to any other team but dammit the ball moved around and we were dominating both mid range and post. It was guys who weren’t flashy but humble and workhorses
I will never get over that Game 5 in 2005. The Pistons were on their way after games 3 and 4. They were so close to that back to back.
As a Mavs fan, I always respected the Spurs. A well run organization with amazing characters who made up the foundation of their success. Could only wish that we could finally emulate the same success in the future.
Honestly I respected the Mavs too, Dirk was top notch and the passion your owner shows for his team is nearly unmatched. You're in good hands though with Luka... My god is he a talent
@@3KRacing Lukas a god Kobe Mj Luka Kareem Giannis magic bird LeBron Duncan Shaq
The spurs were so great.
What does it take to end the Spurs dynasty? Short answer: Zaza
The Score is goated
Spurs have never been a flashy team but damn they are winners!!! 🏆
I love this channel and watch every single vid y'all drop, I think it's absolutely criminal there aren't more subs/views. Given that, something I'd suggest is watching interviews of Mr Beast, his knowledge of YT and how to create videos in a way maximize viewership and retention is unprecedented!!
I just want The Score to win man! ❤️
Memorial Day Miracle always gives me chills down on my spine. One of the happiest moments in San Antonio.
I was born when Duncan was drafted, I’ve been spoiled my entire basketball watching life. I love my Spurs, nothing can match the fans dedication for this team.
Don't forget the Spurs swept the Lakers in 1999.
Algorithm engagement. Underrated channel
Quality content as always. Great Job!
This was an immaculate video. Well done!
So so in love with the intro music ❤️ and the content is always so impressive. Love this channel
This was beautiful. Go Spurs Go!
Thank you the score for telling the Spurs story! This is an incredibly well done video. Love it!!@
Great tribute
This was such a great video!
I lived in both Houston and San Antonio so I’m a fan of both teams but man seeing the Spurs run was amazing beats anything I’ve seen the rockets do (I’m too young to have seen the 90’s wins)
Great presentation. Love my Spurs!
This is the basketball I will always be happy watching. OVER. AND. OVER. AGAIN.
I know Pop misses coaching Duncan,Parker & Mani but I see a gleam n his eye this season he's having fun teaching the game 2 the young guys
Really good video 🔥
As a suns fan, respect to the spurs!
I’m glad I got to see the Big 3 play for my first NBA game back in 2016 against the Lebron, Kyrie and Love lead Cavs it was an awesome game aswell
Superb editing! GO SPURS GO
Love these videos
Until now I'm still hurts watching Ray Allen made that shot. Real pain man
What an incredible video
22 straight seasons going to the playoffs. The only other team to do that ever is….no one; no one else has ever done it. Go Spurs Go! Forever and always.
Early 90s - Mid 2010s Red Wings
Yup and Kobe had to deal with that dynasty and the Mavs and the rockets and the suns and the OKC and the warriors and the kings and the blazers and Denver and cp3 hornets and clippers cp3 sheesh while LeBron plays young barely forming teams lmao
THANK YOU.
I love the spurs sweeping the the lakers and seeing love moon Bryant crying sweet!😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Derek Fisher was cold. Lakers had a lot of super underrated players because of brightness of their super stars
yeah D Fish was definitely one of the better role players on that roster
Robinson over Tony in the intro yo he deserves his respect! 😥
I really liked this summery. I admit I was a.spurs hater.. didn't like them beating 2003 Lakers, didn't like them beating Lebron. But now that this era is over, I think I had the wrong idea, they were special, so I am looking for videos like this.
I wasn't a fan of the Spurs growing up, but to see what they accomplished has me regretting that decision
Thank you for showing Sean Elliott's Memorial Day Miracle shot!
Update: GSW trio (KSD) take over as the most winning trio in the playoffs 🔥
BIG SHOT BOB! Another Spurs jersey that I gotta get!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays
Of their 5 championships their 1st one in '99 was probably their most dominant championship run, they went 15-2 in the playoffs that year including a 12-game winning streak that began in their opening round series & lasted until Game 3 of the Finals( they swept past the Lakers & Blazers in the 2nd & 3rd rounds, respectively ). As mentioned in the video package, they practically steamrolled their way through the '99 playoffs.
Go Spurs Go!!!
Why is it when he said Duncan, Robinson, Pop i just get a picture of a commentator yelling Miamis Duncan Robinson when he scores a 3pointer in a blow out game
2013 finals took years off my life
The men that made this all possible: Robinson, Duncan, Parker, Ginobili, Coach Pop, Asst. Coach Bud, GM R.C. Buford and the Holt family #SanAntonio #Riverwalk #RememberTheAlamo
ALL YA GOTTA DO IS REMEMBER THIS NUMBER 21 THIS IS THE REASON THEY GOT THERE ITS TIM WHERE EVER HE PLAYED IN COLLEGE AT WAKE FOREST OR THE SPURS IN THE NBA HE WAS THE BEST REALLY NEVER GOT HIS DUE BUT ALL OF THE SPUR FANS WILL REMEMBER HIS NAME TIM DUNCAN.... NO 21
7:37
Spurs gave manu his jersey number 6 (which was his number with kinder). But the Spurs fans flipped out because that was Avery Johnsons number, a beloved player in San Antonio.
Manu had to change his number, so he asked for 10 (Estudiantes number). Speedy Claxton had been signed just before this and he wore the number 10, so that was a no go.
Manu just said, "Screw it. I'll wear number 20 because it feels good I guess..."
That's how Manu got his legendary jersey number lol.
Love how they were all playing Starcraft.
My spurs getting some love. I hope the young guns can take us again to the promise land
They will
Tim Duncan started the Spurs' championship run in 1999 with David Robinson, Coach Gregg Poppovich, Avery Johnson, Sean Elliott, Steve Kerr, Mario Ellie then continued to win championships with the establishment of the Big Three of Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili.
🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🇨🇱go spurs go
Espuela des de 89' espero ver otro campionato .
Damn didn’t know about the StarCraft but that brings back memories 😊
The 1st time i saw the twin towers played, i knew i found my fav nba team. thank you spurs for all the wonderful basketball memories. Timmy is my number 2 best player. next to MJ ofc.
The disrespect to 5 time champion Derek Fisher is baffling. Not just on this video or channel, but in the NBA fandom in general. He was a leader and consistent presence on those Laker teams. The only stat you can find for that is Wins and championships.
of all clips, u put up the one when the confetti stuck to Bosh's lip lmaoo
If the superstars were not moving teams so much, maybe the dynasty had continue with Leonard
Steph, Klay, and Draymond are pretty close to what the Spurs had, as far as, greatest trio's go.
not even close, they're in a different trajectory but they've imo surpassed them
@@rnac5438
Touche.
Haven’t they overtaken them in playoff games won as a trio?
I didn't know they were playing Starcraft. I thought it was a Korean thing.
How times changed from Larry Birds 80s, to indoor cigar smoking Jordan's earlier 90s, to shooting zerglings in 1999.
Native sa die hard fan here. Love my Spurs 💪
So I guess those chumps I beat in Starcraft were really from the Spurs 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
15:17 this was the last NBA championship they did a 2-3-2 format, meaning Game 7 was also in Miami.
Go spurs Go !!!!!
This is why I’m happy being a spurs fan, because they represent the basic, class act basketball. If that last part makes sense lol
Here before 1 mil subs
Game 7 of 2013 was in Miami.
The 22 straight playoff appearances accomplishment is like they won one more Championship
17:20 Steph Klay and Dray
🔥
Go Spurs.
I thought Kawhi would go down the same path as Timmy the humble superstar who let his work do the talking, then the whole debacle happened and I was on the fence about it even after he left. That's when instead of listening to mainstream media(SAS who has his own agenda his pushing) I did my homework. While on the spurs Khawi was trying to get strings pulled asking the team for big name star to team up with ironically Paul George(who was his last option), Russell Westbrick, and Jimmy Butler( around 1:40 mark he mentions it czcams.com/video/f1iBqeWfJ-c/video.html ). Then you heard about how Jordan lowballed Khawi on a shoe deal ( czcams.com/video/QFEBuSOBzbA/video.html ) basically if he was on a big market team with the numbers he put up he would got the the deal. Then something that went under the radar was Uncle Dennis asking price for Kahwi services ( czcams.com/video/rFZAiX3aQ28/video.html ). If he wanted that from the Lakers imagine what he got from the Clippers(look above).
TLDR: Dennis and Khawi(not just Dennis) wanted ALOT MORE CONTROL of a sport organization and a WINNING organization like the Spurs were not going to let a superstar dictate how they do business(IMO Also why alot of superstars don't go there even though the Best Head Coach possibly ever is there(KD, Kyrie , and Lebron)).
You said this was a story about Duncan Robinson...I didn't see the Miami sharpshooter anywhere tho.
If it wasn't for a few freak plays the Spurs could easily have won 7-8 championships.
2015-16 67 wins? spurs are a great what if. what if kawhi doesn’t get hurt?
What if zaza was not an asshole
Game 7 was in Miami for 2013 finals
so basically, the Spurs are conquering the NBA quietly. hahahaha!
