For reference:

In ²⁰¹⁶⁄₁₇, they finished 2nd in the West and overall, with a record of 61-21, only behind the 67-15 KD Warriors. They were lead by Kawhi Leonard and eventually lost to the Warriors in WCF. Fuck Zaza.
Last time they went to the Playoffs was 2019. They lost 3-4 in the 1st round against the Nuggets, lead by a young and All-NBA Jokic.
No player has survided from that era. Most tenured player in current roster is Keldon Johnson. 29th pick of 2019 draft, just after playoffs elimination. He is arguably the frontrunner for this year 6MOY.
Over the last 10 seasons (since ¹⁶⁄₁₇), they are currently ³⁸³⁄₄₀₂ (48.8% W%), with 14 games goes to go this season. 14th best record across the league in this timespan.
They are currently the second team on the longest playoff drought (6 seasons), only behind the Hornets at 9 seasons.

They had an insane 50 win streak before all that iirc.

My favorite stat was that the 50 win streak survived the lockout season because they won 50 games despite it only being a 66 game season.

They ended the season on a 10 game win streak in order to get to 50 wins too

It’s also technically 20 straight years (including every year of Duncan’s 19-year career) if you factor in the shortened 1999 lockout season where they went 37-13, which is proportionally equivalent to 60-22.

Well he’s obviously a large part but they also won 61 the year after he retired (and nearly 50 the next 2 years) and consistently won 50+ the years leading up to the 1 year tank for Duncan.

Tim Duncan saw only one season below 50 wins and that was when the season was 50 games. 37-13 was still on pace.

After a disappointing career from Zion it’s so nice to have an athletic freak with the competitive drive of someone that’s never been the most athletic and just has a chip on their shoulder about everything. He seems like he has that crazy place he can go to in his head to take nothing and everything personally lol

No, they won the title the years before going 44-38. In 1979 they added 10 wins but lost in the finals and then never won 50 again.

My whole life they’ve been good pretty much every decade. Winningest franchise in terms of win % by a long shot since 1980.

This team is deep af and it would be my pick to win it all but I’m not sure they have the experience. They do have the talent.

It’s impressive how quick the surge was. Wemby’s NBA debut was the 23-24 season and he was on restricted minutes. They had 22 wins. The next season his minutes were ramping up but then he had the blood clot issue. Already in his third season and they’re second in the west with 50 wins.

A very very good job by the front office AND coaching staff to build out that team and get them prepared to play this well so quickly. I don’t think they’re realistically contending for a championship just yet, but they can make the second round.
