Spurs Basketball

Kawhi Leonard is the perfect Spur.  He was great in college but he played on a San Diego State team that was under the radar and was an older player in the draft, so the brain trusts of other teams bypassed his ability and looked elsewhere.  The Spurs took the best player available - and now he's a starter on a #1 seed. 

I grew up in San Antonio.  As a result I love the Spurs.  My analysis regarding the Spurs is not objective, but I have to say it's refreshing rooting for a team that is run with cold blooded efficiency.  They may not be the best team from a talent standpoint anymore.  They are aged.  But you'd be hard pressed to find a team that has drafted better than the Spurs in the last 10 years.  Or put together a deeper roster.
