The 2002–03 San Antonio Spurs season is the 36th season of the franchise, 30th in San Antonio and 27th in the NBA. The Spurs would win 60 games for only the second time in franchise history as they attempted to win a second title in the midst of David Robinson's imminent retirement following this season. For the season, the Spurs changed their logo, which remains in use today, and played in a new arena, the SBC Center (now AT&T Center). The season saw Tim Duncan earn his second consecutive NBA MVP award. In the first round of the playoffs, the Spurs defeated the Phoenix Suns, then defeated the defending champions Los Angeles Lakers in the semifinals. In the Western Conference Finals, they defeated the Dallas Mavericks to advanced to the NBA Finals, where they beat the New Jersey Nets and won their second championship. Following the season, Stephen Jackson signed as a free agent with the Atlanta Hawks, Steve Smith signed with the New Orleans Hornets, and Steve Kerr retired.
