The Spurs really are a class organization, pretty much from the top down. The owner stays out of the team business, and lets his GM and coaches do their job. The players completely buy into the system, listening to their coaches and trusting their teammates, regardless of their ability. The players always make "the extra pass" - forgoing a good shot so that a teammate can have an even better shot. It's classic, beautiful basketball that makes the sport far more interesting than just running the occasional pick and roll or isolation plays.
