NBA, What Have You Taught Us Thus Far? Volume 1 "Welcome Back San Antonio Spurs"

 All Star 2011 is here people.  The NBA takes it's "Road Show" to Hollywood where Kobe, LeBron & D-Wade will showcase their "talents" to the world.  I want to review what got us to All Star Weekend and what we have to look for in June.
 First of all lets give credit where credit is due... Welcome back San Antonio Spurs!  With Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker leading the way with their elite play and up-tempo style offense, the Spurs look poised to claim the top spot in the West.  With Coach Popovich speeding up the offense instead of dropping the ball to soon to be Hall of Famer Tim Duncan possession after possession, the Spurs arguably have the most difficult offense to stop in the league.  It also helps that wing man Richard Jefferson has gotten comfortable with his roll with the team, knocking down clutch 3's in big-time situations.  Lets not forget the Spurs are deeper than ever while getting valuable contributions from young guns Gary Neal, George Hill, DeJuan Blair, Tiago Splitter & the veteran, Antonio McDyse.  The Spurs are back to championship form and have a very comfortable lead for home court through The Finals & do not be shocked if you catch the Spurs hoisting the Larry O'Brien Tropy at season's end.
