# 2011–12 San Antonio Spurs season

The 2011–12 San Antonio Spurs season was the 45th season of the franchise, 39th in San Antonio and 36th in the National Basketball Association (NBA). The Spurs tied the Chicago Bulls for the best record of the season at 50–16, transmuted to 62–20 in an 82-game season, as the season was shortened to 66 games due to the 2011 NBA lockout.
The Spurs attained the first seed in the Western Conference, earning a berth in the 2012 NBA playoffs, where they swept both the Utah Jazz and the Los Angeles Clippers in four games in the first round and semifinals, respectively, only to be eliminated in six games by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference finals. The Thunder would go on to lose to the Miami Heat in the Finals in five games.

## Key dates

* June 23: The 2011 NBA draft took place at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.
* April 27: Upon defeating Golden State in the season finale, the Spurs achieved their 13th consecutive 50-plus-win season, a new NBA record.
* May 1: Gregg Popovich announced as the recipient of the 2011–12 NBA Coach of the Year Award.
* May 7: With an 87–81 win the Spurs defeated the Utah Jazz in a 4–0 series sweep in the first round of the 2012 NBA playoffs.
* May 20: Spurs completed another series sweep, defeating the L.A. Clippers with a 102–99 win in the second round of the 2012 NBA playoffs.
* May 29: With the Spurs' game 2 victory over the Thunder, their 20th consecutive, the Spurs became only the fourth team in NBA history to win 20 or more straight victories.
* June 6: The Spurs are defeated by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference finals in a six-game series.
