The 2001–02 NBA season was the Spurs' 26th season in the National Basketball Association, the 29th in San Antonio, and 35th season as a franchise.[1] During the offseason, the Spurs acquired Steve Smith from the Portland Trail Blazers, and signed free agents Bruce Bowen and second-year guard Stephen Jackson. This was the Spurs' last season at the Alamodome, as they moved into the brand new AT&T Center the next season. The Spurs won 20 of their first 24 games, then posted a 13-game winning streak in March and won their final nine games, finishing first place in the Midwest Division with a 58–24 record. The season saw Tim Duncan earn his first NBA MVP award joining David Robinson as the only Spurs to win the award,[2] and was selected for the 2002 NBA All-Star Game, while first round draft pick Tony Parker made the All-Rookie First Team.

The Spurs breezed past the Seattle SuperSonics in five games in the first round, but they were eliminated in the next round by the eventual champion Los Angeles Lakers in five games, and for the second year in a row, the Spurs had their playoff run ended by the Lakers. Following the season, Antonio Daniels was traded to the Portland Trail Blazers and Terry Porter retired.
