Pretty cool article, revisiting the singular brilliance of our Spurs in the '14 Finals.

We certainly hope Pop is wrong!

It's true though. I've never seen a team dominate like that. Who shoots 70+% in a half?!?!?

I agree with Pop's assessment. Those games were clinical. They should package them and sell them as how-to guides for young ballers.

That team was a team of destiny. Hollywood couldn't have written a better script, from beating interstate rival Dallas, to rolling OKC after they'd given us such fits for three seasons (vengeance for 2012), to demolishing the Heat after the heartbreak of 2013...

...looking back, it was perfect. Just perfect. We may win another title yet, but I don't think any sports thing will ever mean as much to me as that one did.

I think it's one of those runs that won't be fully appreciated until long after all involved have retired, and by that I mean outsiders or the "casual fan". We as Spurs fans know what it meant of course.

Yeah.. I really dont think this group will ever get to that level again. Everything just went absolutely right for us.
