After reading so much about the state of the NBA I think Stern has to thank the Spurs organization for both present image and style of play in the L.
If it weren't for our Big Three and the professional approach of its members, many franchises wouldn't have changed to adjust to us.
And in doing so, they magnified the imprint of this generation of Spurs

Wolves' fan: it doesn't matter how **** he plays in every other game, ginobili vs. the wolves is like he's just kind of laughing to himself all game...kind of like he thinks it's cute that they're trying to play basketball.
