The beat the champions of the East. Badly.
Except Detroit which they merely beat.
In fact they have never lost a finals.
In fact in all the years they have won
they cleaned out the West and then the Eastern champion.


Actually the clear reason they dont cycle is Duncan.
And some very good drafting to fit around him.

If a Duncan was available this year with David Robinson-like player
coming back, I would guess that team would have a chance.

What i meant is that they always beat a different team. Det, NY, Cleve,
hard to stay good because of the cap. you need young, upcoming guys but as soon as they get the big contract, you cant afford them anymore.

I think that Douglas -Roberts can play in the NBA. Whoever gets him at this point will be getting a deal especially since you dont have to pay him 1st rd money

Robinson and Duncan both restructured their contracts so the cap was not a problem. I guess they are a few of the guys that realize they have enough money and it is more fun to actually have a good team.

Thanks for your insight C. Simon.
Fun for me as usual.
