European looking for a team to follow. How does the Spurs fit in historically from an American point of view? (alien.top)

As a European, the NBA is fairly new to me. But it's an exciting sport to watch. So far we've watched a couple of games and I really enjoy how the SA Spurs play. I really liked how Collins is playing and find it hilarious when Wembanyama just grabs a ball out of the air in front of the basket. The 3-pointers he shoots are beautiful.
But... I don't wanna fan up completely to a team, based on 1 or 2 games I've watched, in a sport that I don't fully understand.

Can anyone educate me about where to go look for historic reference, mentality of clubs and players etc etc. And how do the Spurs fit in the regular American viewer?

Don't know what the main sport you follow is, but in historic terms... think of a club in your league in the sport you know that was a true dynasty with probably the best player ever at his position and a legendary coach about 10-15 years ago, but has since fallen on hard times and is just now starting to rebuild from the ashes with one of the most exciting young players in the sport right now. That's pretty much where the Spurs are today.

You also have to have a genuine love for big women that double-fist churros too lmao.
