San Antonio Spurs 89-90: A Season To Remember

Highlight video of the season that turned around the Spurs Franchise. The 1989-1990 Spurs season saw the biggest single season turnaround in NBA History, as the Spurs improved from 21-61 in 89 to 56-26 in 1990. David Robinson was the unanimous choice for Rookie of the Year, the Spurs won the Midwest Division title, and advanced to the 2nd round of the 1990 NBA playoffs.

This 1990 team along with our 1995 spurs team we're the closest we got pre duncun to reach the finals to win it all. These we're the hardest year's to watch growing up. Because something would always happen to go against us to win. But the year's of those losses helped our veterans use those experiences to win finally in 1999.

Spurs almost knocked off eventual Western Conference Champions Portland. I think they would have matched up better with Detroit.

This might've been the year the Spurs turned things around, but I'd bet that they could only imagine what would be in store for them a decade later.

The San Antonio Spurs went from a 21-61 in 89 to 56-26 in 90, David Robinson the admiral was voted unanimous 1990 nba rookie of the year and won their first southwest division title before losing to the Portland Trailblazer's in the second round of the playoffs in GM 7?

Spurs were in the Midwest Division then, Southwest didn't exist until much later.

[@youtuber3328]

[@TheSub-SaharanAmericanLegend]

Huh? Robinson was the reason for the season to remember. Turnaround winning team

[@toysnaplaviscus]

@@TheSub-SaharanAmericanLegend Robinson was drafted in '88 but didn't join the team until '90, cause Navy.

[@TheSub-SaharanAmericanLegend]

@toysnaplaviscus no Robinson was drafted in 1987, not 88. 88 he was playing with Team USA and they won Bronze medal. He wasn't playing in the league yet until 1989 season and became Rookie of the Year 1990
