San Antonio Spurs Tribute - The Beautiful Game (ORIGINAL)

[@Dakotaddk]

+SpursOverAll Not to mention LA wanted to come home and to a winning organization to get a ring so its not like we overpaid him cause other teams would've paid more

[@gt8432]

+southsidesman Its because coaching in all proffesional sports today sucks it sucks it sucks it sucks it sucks. All coaches today have sticks up their asses. Few great coaches in pro sports: Popp in the NBA, Belicheck in the NFL. Sports were once beautyy because of the great coaching. OMG if you want to watch team sports watch the 1985 celtics watch the 1977 trailblazers, watch the USSR hockey teams, watch the great defense of Tom landy and the cowboys way back then. Watch how jimmy johnson built the early mid 90s cowboys not off of big bruising fat asses but a small lightweight defense that packed a massive punch. Watch the russian 5 of the detroit redwings in the 90s, watch the patriots they dont need star wide receivers or superstar runningbacks they need a fucking qb his name is tom brady and a good offensive line and stout defense. Watch the great 49ers teams led by the general Walsh they played the game of football. Watch the great steelers led by Chuck Knoll who played smashmouth defense they grinded the snot out of you played as a unit. Those are leaders those are TEAMS, that is what sports SHOULD BE. Problem is ego, stupid kids listening to gangster rap and shootem up and EGO EGO EGO EGO. They only care about ME ME ME. When you sacrifice the individual for the whole you get a thing of beauty when you make the pass to the open man instead of taking it to the hoop with 2 guys on you thats TEAM. Kids today want to be like Lebron James, Kobe, Megatron, Adrian Peterson cuz their SUPERSTARS. But ill laugh and tell you when i was growing up i looked up to bob cousy, I looked up to Larry Bird, I looked up to Anatoli Tarasov the master of Soviet Hockey, I looked up to Bill Russell, I looked up to Bill Parcels, Tom Landry, Chuck Knoll, Red Auerbach. Leaders of MEN

the Spurs played phenomenal defense in 2014 finals. people overlook it because of the offense (which is a disgustingly common trend in basketball now) but Leonard, Green, Diaw, and Duncan all played exceptional lock down defense against Miami in that series, and in the playoffs overall.

[@tnaimpact]

Chris Hebert 2014 was the best yr Spurs got their revenge against MIA to win the 🏆🙌🏻! It was good to see them keep their players from 2014 team to try to go for a repeat but then loss to Clippers in 7 games👎🏻! Then that’s when Warriors always started to go NBA Finals for past 3 yrs after Spurs last championship 😔! It would have been better to see Spurs defend their first championship against Warriors 2015

[@nelsondu2333]

Yeah, Barkley said he thinks Pops is the best coach ever because he first won it with bigs as their best players (Robinson/Duncan), then won it with guards as their best players (Parker/Ginobili), and then again with a wing (Leonard) as his best player, and then he's won defense-first and with offense. He can win with any style.

[@geoffbruce8605]

Man, Ginobili is such an underrated passer.

[@socialminds9894]

I honestly think he's one of the greatest passers of all time. I've seen him thread the most ridiculous from the smallest angles of the longest distances. It's insane how he sees those things.

[@juliantorres3686]

Build A Fire basically San Antonio was one of the greatest Teams to ever exist. A Guy called Tim Duncan was drafted in 1997 and brought in a title along side a guy called David Robinson. The spurs drafted Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili which formed a “Big 3” they together won 4 championships 2003 2005 2007 2014 but Tim Duncan has 5. Later they were building the franchise around a guy they traded for in the draft called Kawhi Leonard he was one of the brightest stars in the Nba and the spurs had taken him in like a son but Kawhi got injured and the team started to trash talk and rumors and politics got in the way and Kawhi left the team. Now the Team sucks and is struggling to make the playoffs which they never missed since 1997.

the most beautiful part of this video is seeing that Ginobilis smile on the face as he dribbles the ball through the legs of the opposing player... because thats what its all about, having fun while doing the thing you love, and doing it good because of that

[@jasonstarr6419]

I probably have comments buried throughout this comment section. I've watched this thing so many times over the years, but it still brings tears to my eyes. When you experience greatness like this, at some level you know it won't last - and it didn't. But, you will always have the memory. And to be privileged enough to watch these three greats in particular sharing their love for the game and one another is a gift.

[@thekidthechild8829]

Your not one this video is just so pure.

[@shangoat2008]

Loved the video for 10 years, been dreaming one day my Celtics can become a great team like the Spurs. Today, I come back to this video, once again.

[@kurinaiuchiha]

No matter how many superstar and big names the NBA has like Lebron, KD, Steph or whatever big threes, no one comes close to my heart than TIM, MANU and TONY, this team and players made me a basketball fan. Thank you for the memories, its a pleasure to watch you play.

[@GunterJPN]

If you're a fan of any other team, you're still a fan of basketball, so you have to love this. This is what Larry Brown used to call "playing the right way". If you play or have played basketball in any form, you wished you were on a team like this.

[@paulklinger6437]

When i dont have a family member or friend to turn to during the tough times i watch this and realize everything is gonna be ok. Spurs dynasty is like that of a living royal bloodline one i can respect and in years to come emulate. Thanks San Antonio for all of it.

[@pf210]

Paul Klinger your exactly right man me too.. things haven't been so good for me lately and im born and raised in SA and every time I watch this video it gives me hope that everything is gonna be ok

[@courtneyheney2886]

I'm a diehard Boston Celtics fan, but man, over the years I have grown to really just be in awe of how the San Antonio Spurs do business. I am a little embarrassed to have been known to say, once upon a time, 'man, the spurs? they are so boring!' I am pleased to report that I have since come to my basketball senses and now they are my second favorite team! I have watched this video about 10 times in the past week, and every time, I have chills for virtually the entire time. It is absolutely poetry in motion, five guys moving, passing, creating...it's a wonder why more NBA teams (save the Atlanta Hawks, to some degree now) don't adopt more of this system. Of course, in order for it to be executed so flawlessly, they do have some incredible players and future hall of famers, so that is working to their advantage as well. Nevertheless, they all make it work and it is a joy. I have been staying up mad late the last week watching the Clippers series and last night was a tough one for the Spurs to lose. I am hoping they can eke out a Game 7 win @ Staples Saturday night, because I do not want to see this dynasty come to an end just quite yet. And, if there was ever a team that could win a Game 7 on the road, it certainly and without a doubt, is the San Antonio Spurs! From a fan in Boston, MA... GO SPURS GO!

[@maxdurk4624]

I mean, I think they actually were kinda boring before they traded for Diaw in 2012. They always had a methodical and meticulous charm to them that hardcore NBA fans appriciated, but once they traded for Diaw and supercharged their offense they became beautiful.

[@josephus1983]

There will be many great teams, but none like this. Never before and never again. Spurs way all day. Glad I got to see these guys work.

[@corvettez06usa]

I think the entire 2014 season of the Spurs can be archived and shown for many many years as educational material of how basketball is played. I remember seeing the ball movement and coordination and just sitting on the edge of my seat. I don't think basketball had been played to this level of perfection, as a team, since the 80s. And it hasn't after the fact.

[@hristijandimitrovski8664]

These Denver right now with Jokic and Murray reminds me of San Antonio a little bit... They easily play the most beautiful basketball right now

[@hamdeali53]

@@hristijandimitrovski8664they are definely the best team since the 2018 warriors just a great team I was impressed by the nuggets

[@kosh1991]

Jesus Christ. Can't find right word for this kind of beautiful basketball. Man, I'm blessed to watch this kind of bball in my life man -_- b

[@DHeroDarkMagicianGuy]

The word you're looking for is "basketball". You cant describe it any other way. Magic Johnson couldn't. It's just the definition of the game watching them play. Its beautiful.

[@10Junction]

Watch it once a month. Still gold. Still gives me chills.

[@hectorvillares8318]

haha, pretty similar. At least every three months!

[@darryln6932]

Amazing how the world can't see the greatness of Duncan likes they should! He is truly one of the greatest to ever step on the court & Ginobili was also!

[@_uknown_]

agree!! yet they focuse on LeBron.

[@burninglass]

Manu is the only one that can say he is a true world champion. He almost single handedly defeated the American All Star Team in the Olympics. The Best of The Best Could Not Defeat Ginobili and he is truly Thee Greatest of All Time !

[@StylessZ]

This video has cemented itself in my brain. Years and years later I still think about it and come back to watch

[@jonathanzuniga3681]

Every Father’s Day I come back and watch this and I tear up a little bit. Some games become more than games.

[@kasemfudo6908]

whenever I see the spurs I am being inspired to be nice to people, they are the nicest individuals on the planet. very humble and respectful. great role models to the younger generations. they can manage to be very competitive and maintain that adorable attitude in the air all at the same time. respect and honor. I love this team so much.

This season, is a new beginning

[@pablofernandez563]

One of my favourite videos in KZbin. I keep coming back to it. 6 minutes of happiness

[@midnight2600]

From a guy who lives down in San Antonio and a long time Spurs fan this was really cool to see and hear. They have always been a team who focuses on teamwork and fundamental basketball not being flashy or whatever and its just a great time. Its like watchin a classic game of ball from back in the day and anyone who knows the sport well enjoy watchin the Spurs

[@nostalgicbliss5547]

Anyone who truly loves basketball as much as these guys knows it hits us right in the feels 🤩

[@ashleybrooks3901]

this is one of the best videos i’ve ever seen it makes me so emotional. I’ll miss these guys playing together, legends

[@JeSuisBenH]

8 years later and the spurs are still playing the same way. This year they are leading the league with 30.8 APG. The most APG by a team since the Showtime Lakers. #gospursgo

[@robertflores4954]

Coming here after tim retired and tony just signed with the hornets and manu is contemplating retirement and im crying my eyes out. Huge love for these guys. I love you spurs. And thank you TP wish you luck in charlotte #Blessed #GoSpursGo #ForeverASpur

[@SlayerXD1]

1:56-2:02 The essence of Tim as a man, he kept his team in line, he was what kept the spurs grounded in their humility and tenacity. He was the humble reminder to any teammate that might have otherwise slip up

[@ObiEzeilo]

Pure definition of team basketball! A textbook ought to be written about this team and their style of play.

[@jh-nl8yf]

miss them.. what’s even more amazing is that they made this fabulous season after they were heartbreakingly defeated by the heat in finals the previous year

[@mike_2107]

This video always get me in the feels.

[@atbp828]

I always have goosebumps watching this beautiful game listening to the cheers, applause I am in awe of the San Antonio Spurs .. they"re so unselfish PLAYING TEAM BASKETBALL!

Thanks TD :D You are a legend . Nba will never be the same :(

[@raufrahim6786]

I'm still here. I showed this video to my students. Never failed to motivate them. Spurs for life

[@zooey3785]

I lost count, the number of times I've watched this video. It never gets old. Had to come back and watch it once again..

[@Nr4747]

Fantastic tribute video, great job ! Nobody should want to shut such a great advertisement for Basketball down. Also: Ginobili is my pick for greatest Draft steal of all time. Yes, there have been other great 2nd rounders, but come on, name one pick even in the same ballpark as 57th that has been even in the same ballpark in terms of longevity and success as Manu.

[@alejandrorodriguez-kt8nk]

Greatest European player of all time. N I mean players that came from European teams I kno he's from south america

[@王永琪-q6r]

Words can't express how much I love this SAN Antonio spurs team. I really love these old guys

[@alexvillalo7987]

I always return to this classics. We will never have another dynasty like this. At least in our life time.

[@burninglass]

I beg to differ....The Spurs will do what hasn't been done in a long long time. They will experience an epic resurgence lasting another decade if not more. Victor leading the way !

[@rjmacready9828]

As a young pistons fan, i hated san antonio when they beat us in 2005. Now, i have nothing but the utmost respect for this team. Absolutely my favorite team (aside from detroit). They play like a together and have imo the greatest coach in nba history. It may not be the most entertaining to watch, but anyone who is a basketball fan knows that this dynasty is one of a kind. I truly hope they repeat this year (although golden state is looking pretty good). When it comes down to it, they are what the 2004 pistons would have been if they kept everyone together.

[@thewhitemage8763]

I didn't think there were other people out there like me but I feel the same exact way

Absolutely perfect music choice for this video. 03:05 to about 03:40 is my favorite part. It flows so well... This team is truly special. Their years upon years of greatness transcend the term "dynasty." We are lucky that we will one day be able to tell future generations about them, who they were, and what they accomplished.
