A very Telling stat is that the top two teams in assists per game are Golden State and Atlanta.
They're winning so much because they are keeping everyone involved, which helps not only the offense, but the defense.
This is the San Antonio model - and 'Pops' should be getting a lot more props!
When you depend on two or three 'superstars' they begin to break down from the load...see D.Wade, L.James, K.Bryant, etc.
Meanwhile, though he has aged, Tim Duncan is getting plenty of rest during the regular season and while the Spurs are 'only' 30-17, they may be better prepared for the post-season.
