Proper spurs.
Even if I don’t watch football and don’t follow female stars, I still know the glory of the Spurs.
The lottery drawn by the Spurs in 1997 is known as the "strongest lottery in history"! Just by hearing the name, you should know how lucky and fateful you are!
First, let’s give an overview of this pick: In the 1995-96 season, the Spurs had 59 wins and 23 losses in the regular season, and the playoffs stopped in the Western Conference semifinals. The following season, the Spurs encountered serious injury problems. David Robinson was out for the season due to a back injury, and main small forward Elliott missed most of the season due to injury. As a result, the Spurs only won a measly 20 games this season. But as the saying goes: if you survive a disaster, you will be blessed later. After a whole season of sluggishness, the Spurs were lucky enough to get the No. 1 pick Duncan as "compensation" in the 1997 lottery. This pick also brought the Spurs 20 years of glory and five championships.
With this pick, the Spurs made it to the playoffs every year for nearly 20 years, and were considered one of the most competitive candidates for the championship every year. one. In the past 20 years, we have won 5 championships! This kind of terrifying and absolutely stable strength has almost never been seen by other teams. Even as powerful as the Lakers or as wealthy as the Celtics, it is difficult to guarantee such strong combat effectiveness every year.
In fact, if you look back at the coaching career of coaches in the league, it only lasts 20 years from debut to retirement. It is terrifying to rely on one "number one pick" to support a coach's entire coaching career.
Some students may not understand this meaning. Let me give you a vivid example. This is like, from elementary school to junior high school to high school, you study hard, even if you are ranked first, you will never get the first place, and you will always be the second best. And the number one position is always the same one, for nearly 20 years. This is very disillusioning for others. . .
