Hate it or love it, the underdogs are on top. The San Antonio Spurs upset the back-to-back champs from Florida, taking the title in only five games. While the franchise has a long history of winning, especially over the last fifteen years, the team’s more associated with fundamental play than flashy footwear. While that’s mostly true, there are a host of stars that wore the black and silver along with noteworthy kicks. Take a look at twelve of our favorite Spurs that sported heat on their feet.

David Robinson had kicks, commercials and he even had kick commercials. Yes, Mr. Robinson served as one of the original spokesmen for the Nike Force Camp, fresh off serving our country as a member of the US Navy. The Admiral had an admirable career and a shoe resume to match. Nostalgic high tops that still seek the retro treatment, such as the Nike Air Unlimited, can thank D-Rob for their favor.
