The Spurs are beneficiaries of an ungodly amount of favor from the basketball gods. They beat the odds to move up in the draft in three straight seasons, and the last instance landed them Dylan Harper, who's about to bring something that San Antonio needs severely: pace and game manipulation.
Harper has a special knack for not allowing himself to be sped up, but he'll turn the jets on, pull back, pivot, and side-step his way into whatever spot on the floor he wants. Sound familiar? Manu Ginobili has a similar ability, and though he didn't use his start/stop skill as much as Harper does, being able to do so at such a high level was another reason why the San Antonio legend was such a problem.
