Now that the Tim Duncan era has ended, and the big man is moving into the Spurs front office, does the team have what it takes to organize a solid reorganization effort?

The Spurs have quietly with substance won 5 NBA Titles (1999, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2014) behind the leadership of its stars such as Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginobli.

This consistent play by this very solid NBA team of recent years has people comparing them to the base-sturdy Tom Brady-led New England Patriots of the NFL.

However, unlike the Patriots, the Spurs had to fend off the hot streaks and high points of numerous flashy and talented teams with incredible superstar talents such as LeBron James, Allen Iverson, and Shaquille O'Neal.

Sure, the Patriots dealt with the likes of the Manning brothers, gifted Seahawks and Eagles squads, and emerging hot QBs such as Carson Palmer and Ben Roethlisberger, but only the Spurs were time-and-time again a great 'unarrogant team' to follow.

I like comparing the Popovich spurs to the Thompson Hoyas of Georgetown, not just because of the similar colors, but also because of an equal homage to coordinated and clean team-play.

So since we have to cheer for the potential leering heavyweight, and many are simply tired of the Brady-controversial Patriots, we can meditate on how the Duncan-steady Spurs gave us competitive victories with dependable play, which may be enough for NBA fans to monitor how this new era Spurs will meet the standards of field excellence.

That doesn't sound that boring...

Only people that dont know basketball consider the Spurs boring. They are a joy to watch. Almost as fun to watch as the Dubs.
