Spurs Trivia Questions

[zin]

I've decided to do this as well as Statto's questions are less Spurs, more general and are answered only every morning. If the admins believe I'm stepping on toes here then just lock.

I'll keep these mostly Spurs with some general ones thrown in. These will be multiple questions during the week and I will be responding to all answers throughout the day when I'm online. These questions are challenging and harder to google. Feel free to do so though, you don't need to pretend that you aren't, the aim here is to improve your Spurs knowledge and have some fun.
