Man if yall are claiming the Spurs were a superteam are some of the dumbest fans ever

It definitely matters when they were drafted

You wont find a super team full of 2nd rounders... thats not even where the term came from

but its the internet... so yall will say the sky is purple just to be contrary or to try to protect lebrons image like he gives 10 flying pigs about yall

Dont you think the part where they see all HOFs is a bit more important than where they are drafted ? Its like you are trying to say they are scrubs since they werent high draft picks. Thats just dumb.

I dont care if anyone wants to call them a superteam or not, but that team could get with any team in NBA history. Ill stand by that.

those players earned being in the hall of fame they didnt come together as that

this is such a stupid conversation

Nobody in their right mind considered them a super team and even went as far as calling them boring

duncan had already jacked up his knee and was on the downside of his career by the time kawhi came around as a raw talent

the term superteam didnt come up until miami and EVERYBODY knows that

Cant be a superteam when you drafted all the players. Gsw was a superteam because they added kd to an already bound Finals team. The heat were a superteam because 3 franchise players agreed to team up together.

Super teams are formed through acquisitions, not by drafting. Slapped.

Just saying they didn�t draft him, which they didn�t. And �Superteam� concept is a matter of opinion, you define it as players coming together, others may define it from just a dominance standard. Neither answer is wrong

Tony Parker made 4 all NBA teams and n1ggas on here acting like he some sort of scrub talmbout "parker a nobody kid from france that almost got traded in place of jason kidd because Pop didnt think he could run the offense"....

That man was one of the best point guards of his generation wtf do y'all be talking about on here.

That Spurs team was favored in Vegas for a reason.

Parker wasn't being traded for Kidd. The Spurs were trying to add Kidd to have a Kidd and Parker backcourt but Parker wanted no parts of playing off the ball and forced the Spurs to nix the deal.

All super team rules are arbitrary... WTF? Lol... Please feel free to show me where the NBA or a basketball governing body officially defined the term super team?

You can't because it's a made up term by fans and media... Hence all definitions are by nature arbitrary...

If you consider the Spurs a Super team... Then every team with 1 All-Star and 1 All-NBA player is a super team by your definition... The 2014 Spurs had 1 all star and 1 All NBA player and they were the same person lol... So going forward any team with 1 All-NBA is a Super team... Got it... Thanks for enlightening us

Four 2nd team and below awards in 18 years is not great... That's just good... There is a reason he didn't make any of those teams until late in his career... And was never thought of for 1st team

It was more of a lifetime achievement and recognizing a good player on a team that wins... If the Spurs weren't winning 50+ games Parker had zero chance of making any all-NBA teams... Great players make All-NBA regardless of their teams records... Good players make it because their team has a great record

He has the same amount of All-NBA as Mark Price... And Price did that in 6 less years and actually made a 1st team as well... And y'all n1ggas never consider Price when talking about the greatest point guards

They were favored because they had home court advantage... Clearly your logic doesn't hold up as they weren't favored in 2013 lol...

If they were favored solely because of their team they wouldn't have been such a huge underdog in the 2013 finals playing the same exact team... They were underdogs in 2013 because they didn't have home court... Simple as that

Home court advantage wins majority of the time in the finals

1.) Kawhi was a rookie in 2013 and Wade was healthier.

2.) All NBA 2nd/3rd team are fu#kin hard to get bruh. Parker was top 5 PG for years. Stop trying to downplay that man for a narrative.

3.) A super team is a team that has at least 3 all stars/all NBA players and at least one top 5/MVP caliber player, imo. It can be adjusted (for example 2 top 5 players etc.) but y'all tryna arbitrarily talk about acquisition strategy rather than talent as the core of the definition. Which is ridiculous.
