2014 Spurs on NBA's Mount Rushmore?

I don't want to beat the dead NBA Mount Rushmore horse any more than the next guy. However, in honor of the Spurs winning the 2013-2014 NBA championship I thought I would try to revive and modify the discussion.

Here are some links to bring you up to speed with the NBA's Mount Rushmore conversation:

I know, Mount Rushmore has four faces carved into it. But what if you could carve team banners? For example, I'm sure the 72 win 1996 Chicago Bulls banner would be a fitting candidate. The Spurs dominated a Miami Heat team stacked with three all-stars (one of which is the "greatest player on the planet" and arguably the greatest SF of all-time) by a record setting margin. Where do these 2014 Spurs rank on a Mount Rushmore of NBA teams? If you could carve four NBA team banners into the NBA's Mount Rushmore, who would they be?
