The San Antonio Spurs
The San Antonio spurs are a team who in the last ten years have won 3 NBA championships courtesy of perhaps the best power foward of all time Tim duncan, elite point guard Tony parker, and one of the best sixith men in the league in Manu ginobli. In 1997-98 season the start of a championship era begun for the spurs, Tim duncan quickly improved his low post game averaging 21 points, 12 rebounds per game as a power forward for the spurs. Tim duncan was also named first team all-NBA while winning rookie of the year in his first year in the league. The team's record was 56 wins and 26 losses, breaking their own franchise record in 1989–90 for the biggest single season improvement for wins, but yet again they fall to the jazz in the western conference semi-finals in 1998. Then went on to win 1999, 2003, 2005, 2007. In 1999 Tim duncan won the finals most valuble player award, He also won the finals mvp in 2003. In 2007 Tony parker won the finals mvp when the deafeated the clevland cavaliers 4 games to 0. Now in 2010 to start off the seaon the spurs have the best record in the league at 12-1. The big 3, Duncan, Parker, and Ginobli are each averging, Dunca is averging 14 points, and 9 rebounds. Parker is averging 20 points and 9 assists. And for Ginobli he's averging 21 points, and 5 assists. So maybe the spurs and Tim duncan are in a championship era season and for tim duncan his race for his fifth NBA championship if he gets his fifth title he might go down as the best power foward of all time.
