2014 NBA Finals Spurs is the GOAT level basketball?
True or False.
In my opinion, true. It's the best basketball I've ever seen. I think that team could beat the current Warriors with ease.
Lebron ran into a buzz saw that year.

they scraped through the western conference. Didnt look atg at all.
You're discounting how badly the heat quit in that series before Leteamhop made another move.

Great franchise. Top to bottom. Don't think that was GOAT level basketball though. Pop definitely showed what a great coach he is with the seamless transition from a team built around Duncan to one built around Kawhi. Too bad about Uncle Dennis.

They went 12W 6Ls in the West playoffs and then 4W 1L vs Bran lol. They only struggled the first series.
They probably looked the best vs Bran in the finals though. That was the most beautiful basketball I've ever seen. But then again Bran is also the literal opposite of a defensive anchor and instead breaks his own teams' defenses down by just being on the court.

That's all that needs to be said because in the end you obviously haven't seen much.

Don't know if it's the best basketball a team has ever played (certainly was the most beautiful), but I am confident they would beat the current Warriors in a highly competitive series.
That team was on a seek and destroy mission late in the playoffs, had the perfect balance and intelligent role-players playing their very best. Their precision and ball movement would unravel the mentally fragile Warriors who are not used to facing great opposition.

Pop always gets the most out of role players. It's really something else. You pair a coachable superstar like Duncan with that and it's easy to see why the Spurs were dominant so long.

Yes they were. Gino cost tim his 5th straight with 4th fmvp. But at least they came back and showed out.

Best basketball ever.
Was a pure joy to watch and witness.
Watching replays still brings a tear to my eye.
