If you look back just a year ago, Spurs fandom was not exactly ecstatic. The team was nowhere near a playoff appearance, and despite a talented band, there were no results to get excited about. Fast forward 365 days, and now the Spurs are looking like one of—if not the best—teams in the NBA. How could this possibly happen?
There are dozens of stats and analytics we could talk about, but instead, I want to give this monumental Spurs turnaround the admiration it deserves. The way San Antonio has flipped things around in just a year's time is historic.
