Fantastic.

totally forgot about that bat swat!

Grantland writing about the Spurs.

Can't go wrong there.

Hot damn that was a fun read!

That was some good sheot. Great memories.

Very enjoyable read. Loved the tone. Obviously not meant to catalogue the greatest plays in Spurs history. So take it for what it is.

A few quibbles:
1. The Spurs existed before Tim Duncan. Yeah, look it up. Not nearly as successfully, but the Spurs have only missed the playoffs four times EVER.
2. I do not acknowledge any "key date" in Spurs history that reminds me that Richard Jefferson was once a Spurs starter, much less features him.
3. How can you not have a key date that involves a sad, I-just-got-eliminated-by-SA Lebron James?

Let's not forget this experiment. I bet those locker room chats were fun.

Robinson: "Dennis, have you accepted the Lord as your savior?"

Rodman: "Dave, have you ever been in a three-way with Madonna? Because I have."

I can't stand the Spurs, but Grantland somehow makes almost anything an enjoyable read.

Here's my terrible picture of the bat. A single bat in a giant dark stadium is not the easiest thing to focus on.

No pics of the swat.
