San Antonio Spurs Tickets

Moving up from the ABA to the NBA in 1976, the San Antonio Spurs represent some of the rich history of the game of basketball as one of the teams to have made it from the ABA to still be alive today. And with all of their success, thanks to some of the best players of their eras, the Spurs have been one of the model franchises for the rest of the league to compete for titles with.

Among the legends that have suited up for the Spurs are the duo of David Robinson and Tim Duncan. When together on the floor, Duncan and Robinson were so difficult to stop due to their ability to score on the interior and rebound the basketball. Their run together culminated in a championship, winning the NBA Finals over the New York Knicks.

Duncan enjoyed a second era of success with a new group of players, with international stars Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili teaming up with Duncan to bring San Antonio multiple titles. The three players all brought the best out of one another, with Duncan's ability as a big man combining so well with Parker's ability to score and be unselfish, and Ginobili's creativity when scoring.

Of course, those three players and the rest of the Spurs run of success was helped along by Gregg Popovich. One of the best basketball minds of all-time, Popovich has devised strategy after strategy to be ahead of the curve in the NBA to lead his teams to success over their rivals. Popovich cultivated the most successful period in Spurs history, the 21st century, thanks to that ability to think outside the box.
