I know it doesn't feel amazing right now because the Spurs just lost an ugly game in Charlotte, but there's still a reason to be excited about where this team is right now. Think back to last January, and remember how the season completely came apart when they ran into the tougher schedule to start 2025, followed by Victor Wembanyama's DVT diagnosis.
San Antonio was a game over .500 entering the new year but went 4-8 that month. There wasn't much for the fans to be excited about with so few contests and losing so many of the ones they had.
