San Antonio Spurs Documentary, Episode 1: The Rise of a Dynasty

Hello there, Spurs Fans.

My name is Kyle Ledbetter. I host the “Take It Easy” Podcast, a daily sports podcast, as part of the BLEAV Podcast Network. In collaboration with the staff here at Pounding The Rock, I have the distinct honor of creating a five-part Documentary Podcast Series on the San Antonio Spurs Dynasty, Gregg Popovich, Kawhi Leonard, and the fall of the dynasty.

On Episode 1, released today, we discuss the rise San Antonio Spurs Dynasty — a.k.a. “The Greatest Dynasty in North American Pro Sports” — beginning with 1987 and 1997 Draft Lotteries, Gregg Popovich’s rise, the acquisitions of Manu Ginobli, Tony Parker, and Bruce Bowen between 1999 and 2002, and all the way up to the 4-year period between the 2007 championship and the draft-day trade for Leonard in 2011.
