You mean I was wrong last week and the Spurs do have a player ranked higher than LaMarcus Aldrdige? My bad. Coming in at number 4 is Kawhi Leonard. Not bad company at all, and to think he can still get better...
The 1996-97 Spurs are remembered for two things: being an injury-riddled team that tanked to get Tim Duncan, and Gregg Popovich taking over as head coach for the popular Bob Hill (a decision that even David Robinson initially disagreed with). Bleacher Report’s John Abrams goes behind the scenes of Pop’s lone losing season to see how he gained his players’ respect with his knowledge and attentive coaching style while truly not trying to tank.
