One of the most fundamental forces driving professional sports is the tension between building a team for long-term contention and going all-in to win in the current year. For fans of competitive teams, this balancing act can be massively frustrating. If your team leans too far to the side of consistency and runs back the same roster every year, you’ve punched yourself a ticket to a yearly early playoff exit. If your team leans too aggressive, your year or two of actual championship contention can be followed by a long, soul-crushing decline as players reach the back ends of their contracts (See: Phillies, Philadelphia, 2008-). The ultimate goal is sustained championship contention, which very few teams have managed in any given era.

As the NBA playoffs begin to wind down, many are surprised by the absence of the San Antonio Spurs from this year’s Western Conference Finals. After being defeated by the far younger, far more athletic Oklahoma City Thunder in six games, the Spurs were sent packing despite many believing that they had the greatest potential to rip the NBA Championship from point guard Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors. The Spurs’ departure begs many questions: Is this no longer San Antonio’s league? Is this the end for the Spurs’ dynamic trio of guard Manu Ginobili, point guard Tony Parker and center Tim Duncan? How much longer will coach Gregg Popovich remain at the helm?
