If the story of the tortoise and the hare was applied to NBA teams there’s no question as to which animal the San Antonio Spurs would be. Deliberate and consistent, the Spurs would rather carve up teams in the half-court than outrun them. Just like the tortoise, it’s a strategy that has worked out well for San Antonio.
The Spurs are entering a different era now. The Big Three are all retired, a new group of Spurs is here to carry the team into the future. And these young Spurs can run. Powered by a talented and versatile collection of guards and wing players, San Antonio is positioned to push the pace more than ever before.
