The Dallas Chaparrals, a charter member of the ABA, originated in 1967. In conjunction with a move to San Antonio in 1973, the team name was changed to the Spurs. The Spurs joined the NBA after the 1975-76 season and won five division titles in the next seven seasons. Now led by David Robinson, the Spurs have won two more division titles (1989-90 and 1990-91). DID YOU KNOW? The Spurs scored more than 100 points in 129 consecutive games from December 12, 1978, to March 14, 1980, the second-longest streak ever. Despite going into overtime with the Rockets on April 13, 1984, the Spurs committed only seven fouls, the lowest ever in a regular-season NBA game. SCORECARD. With 53-of-75 shooting from the floor on April 16, 1963, against the Mavericks, the Spurs set the NBA record for highest field goal percentage in a game (.707).



Whether to make a key pass or to orignite the offense with a string of buckets, Cassell has joined the ranks of befter NBA "sixth men." The second-year guard out of Florida State dished out a career-high 16 assists against Golden State on February 25 and, on April 7, poured in a career-best 31 points against Portland.



One of the NBA's most entertaining franchises, the Lakers played a major role in the league's rise in popularity in the 1980s. Styled as the "Showtime" Lakers and led by charismatic guard Magic Johnson, the team captured five NBA titles during the decade. With 11 NBA Championships overall, the franchise trails only the Boston Celtics in postseason success. DID YOU KNOW? The Lakers' 69-13 record in 1971-72 is the best in NBA history. The Lakers are the last NBA team to select a guard with the first overall pick of the NBA Draft (Johnson, 1979). In 1984-85, L.A. shot an NBA-record .545 from the field. SCORECARD. On January 9, 1972, the Milwaukee Bucks topped the Lakers 120-104, snapping L.A.'s 33-game winning streak, the longest ever in any major pro sport.
