We want to go as far as we can go and just play as hard as we can play. Hopefully, it will be one of the coming years. And hopefully I'm the coach then. We're not going to wait a long time. The experience is what we're after.
Experience is one thing the Spurs already have.
The 1999 NBA champions have made it to the second round five times in the last seven years, and they have reached the playoffs in 11 of David Robinson's 12 seasons. San Antonio beat the Mavericks in three of four games this season, twice by 12 points. In the opening game of the season series, Dallas won by two points. Watching the final Mavericks-Jazz game on TV clearly got the Spurs' attention. That's what happened to Utah.
