Continuity is a major key to success in the NBA and the San Antonio Spurs have it in boatloads. The majority of this group is carrying over from last season with the exception of DeMarre Carroll and Trey Lyles, who fit into the team’s culture seamlessly for their selfless and team-based attitudes.
Although the margins of victory have been tight, the Spurs have been one of the best scoring teams in the NBA because of their methodical shot selection. With the tandem of DeMar DeRozan and LaMarcus Aldridge as the foundation, San Antonio is one of the most effective teams in the league when it comes to 2-point scoring.
