The 2013-14 NBA season has come to a close, concluding with the San Antonio Spurs hoisting the Larry O'Brien Trophy for the fifth time in 15 years. What does yet another title mean for the legacy of this franchise?

This title is about so much more than any one player, or their tough-love coach, or the emergence of Kawhi Leonard, who won the Most Valuable Player award after averaging 17.8 points and 6.4 rebounds in the Finals, while guarding James on nearly every possession.This title is about the endurance of the Spurs way—a culture, a values system that connects the 1999 title to those earned in 2003, 2005, 2007 and 2014. The Spurs' media guide was embossed with the word "Family," which sounds trite until you look around the arena.

Robinson was there Sunday night, lurking in a locker room hallway while the Spurs doused each other with Dom Perignon and Bud Light. Sean Elliott and Avery Johnson, starters on that '99 team, were in the house, as was George Gervin, the star of the Spurs' ABA era.

Bruce Bowen, the Spurs' small forward on three title teams, embraced Leonard, the current small forward, amid the celebration.Past and present mixed easily, gratefully.

There, in images and emotions, was the Spurs' culture brought to life. It starts with owner Peter Holt and extends through the front office, from R.C. Buford (the NBA's reigning Executive of the Year) and Popovich (the reigning Coach of the Year)."They committed to a pathway," Robinson said, standing on a confetti-littered court. "They committed to bring in guys with character, to build a team based on character and guys that want to fit into a team system, guys that want to play together. And you see it happen. That's where it starts, at the top."Robinson added, "What they've done here is just off the charts."

If the Spurs exemplify selflessness and team play, this 2014 title team might be the Spursiest team ever.

They are still built around Duncan, Ginobili and Parker, all of whom are bound for the Hall of Fame. But Duncan, at 38, is no longer a dominating, low-post power. Ginobili has lost some of his famed shiftiness

This team won the championship because of Leonard's quiet audacity, Boris Diaw's clever passing and the three-point marksmanship of Danny Green and Patty Mills."I think everybody participated in this one," Bowen said. "So that's what made them so hard to defend—that it wasn't about one or two guys. It was more about four or five."
