The Spurs are a 'boring' team. They play a slow defensive games of basketball and all of their players know their roles and keep their mouths shut. And look at the past 15 years of the teams stars.
You have Robinson who came from a good family and you never heard anything bad about and chances are he never did anything bad. He was the Christy Matheson of basketball.
Then you have Duncan who is more or less the game. A quiet shy guy whom I have never heard anyone say anything bad about.
Both are my two favourite basketball players.
Then you have Tony Parker who is a nice guy and fairly reserved and quiet. Manu is fiery out of the court and a little dramtic but is always genial with the media.
Not a single asshat in the group.
They don't have the badboy image of Detroit. The flash of Miami or the soap opera of last years Lakers. But they are as good a team as any of them.
And Pop himself is not really the nicest 'looking' guy. A hard rigid face and keeps his jaw set most of the time in a scowl. He is never nasty to the media but he usualy says what needs to be said or what is on his mind and says it in as few words as he can.
