The San Antonio Spurs Make the Alamo City Proud

The San Antonio Spurs make the Alamo City proud, once again!  Besides the four recent NBA championships, the Spurs lead the entire NBA in winning percentage from 2000 to 2009.  From Jeff McDonald and MySanAntonio.com comes:

"This from the number crunchers at the Elias Sports Bureau ...
No team in the NBA won more regular-season games during the soon-to-be completed decade than the Spurs. Since Jan. 2, 2000 (there were no games on New Year's Day), the Spurs are 573-245, good for a winning percentage of .700. The next best team was the Dallas Mavericks, who were 561-260.
