Great Moments in San Antonio Spurs History

1973: Franchise Relocates To San Antonio- The franchise was rescued from oblivion by a group of San Antonio businessmen led by John Schaefer, B. J. "Red" McCombs, Art Burdick, and Angelo Drossos. The group moved the club to San Antonio and rechristened it the Spurs. They also brought back Nissalke, whose NBA sojourn had been a disaster-he'd lasted barely half a season with Seattle, posting a 13-32 record with the SuperSonics before losing his job.

The franchise played its first game in San Antonio on October 10, 1973, before 5,879 fans at the HemisFair Arena. The Spurs faced the San Diego Conquistadors and came out on the losing end of a 126-101 contest. The team got off to a slow start, posting a 1-6 record. Fan interest was minimal; only 1,799 people showed up for the San Antonio Spurs' first win, on October 18. The situation began to change in November. The struggling Virginia Squires franchise was selling off players, and the Spurs purchased 6-foot-11 Swen Nater for $300,000. On November 28 San Antonio played before a sellout crowd of 10,146 and beat the Kentucky Colonels, to improve to 13-12. Nater, who had been Bill Walton's backup at UCLA, played in the ABA All-Star Game, in which he racked up 29 points and 22 rebounds.

1998-99: The Championship Season-San Antonio struggled in the first month of the lockout-shortened season. But once the San Antonio Spurs hit their stride, nobody could block their path to the franchise's first NBA title. The San Antonio Spurs clinched the championship on Avery Johnson's jumper with 47 seconds left in Game 5 of the Finals, giving San Antonio a 78-77 victory over the New York Knicks. Tim Duncan averaged 27.4 points, 14 rebounds and 2.2 blocks in the series and was named Finals MVP. Duncan's fellow Twin Tower, David Robinson, also made his presence known.

The perennial All-Star, in his 10th season with the Spurs, averaged 16.6 points, 11.8 rebounds and 3.0 blocks in the Finals as the San Antonio Spurs became the first former ABA team to win the NBA title. One of the most compelling story lines came to light after the season ended. Starting forward Sean Elliott revealed that he had played despite needing a kidney transplant. Elliott, who was battling a rare kidney disease, received the transplant Aug. 16. His brother Noel donated the kidney. Elliott averaged 33.8 minutes in 17 playoff games and was responsible for the "Memorial Day Miracle."

On that play, he tiptoed the sideline to stay inbounds before hitting a three-pointer with nine seconds left, lifting the San Antonio Spurs to an 86-85 win over Portland in Game 2 of the Western Conference finals. San Antonio's championship season had an inauspicious beginning as the Spurs went 6-8 in February. But the players eventually settled into a groove, and the team got a spark when veteran swingman Mario Elie joined the starting lineup. The Spurs went 31-5 after their slow start and they raced through the postseason with a 15-2 record. Duncan was named to the All-NBA First Team for the second year in a row. He was the only NBA player to finish in the top 10 in scoring (21.7 ppg, sixth), rebounds (11.4 rpg, fifth), blocks (2.52, seventh) and field goal percentage (.495, 10th).
