 | | The early Spurs were led by ABA veteran James Silas and bolstered by the acquisition in early-1974 of future NBA Hall-of-Famer George Gervin from the Virginia Squires. |
| | The longterm viability of the Spurs franchise in San Antonio was however achieved during the 1999-2000 season, as Bexar County voters approved increases on car rental and hotel taxes which would allow for the construction of a new arena to be constructed near Freeman Coliseum. |
| | The Spurs had hoped to buy out the contract of Ginóbili's countryman Luis Scola, a power forward whom the Spurs had drafted in 2002; however, it appears that the demands of Scola's team, 2005 Euroleague runnerup TAU Cerámica, were too high, as the Spurs have instead signed another Argentine big-man, Fabricio Oberto. |
