Tim Duncan can give you 30 pts 15rbs and 5 blocks without you realizing he dominated the whole game. He was absolutely incredible!

He always seemed like a sleeper. Being flashy gets you attention in the NBA but every time you look away and then check the box score he'd have like 10 more points than you remembered. Miss watching him

Kobe and Shaq had a conversation in 1999 after getting past the 1st round. Kobe: Are u ready? Shaq: For what? Kobe: This boy we're seeing in the next round. Shaq: Robinson? Kobe: Nah, the other one Shaq: He's soft Kobe: I've been watching him all year and he's a problem that you're going to have to deal with. Shaq sort of waved it off. The Lakers ended up getting swept and Duncan averaged like 30 pts in that series

Timmy never really spoke out loud about his work ethic or really anything like Kobe did. So Kobe’s Mamba Mentality gets praised so much when Tim Duncan is over here being a silent assassin. Tim was a player that would also take things personally on the court and dominate them like he did with Demarcus Cousins. KG hated that he could never get in Timmy’s head. What other hall of fame top 10 players favorite thing outside of basketball is Dungeons and Dragons😂 and Tim didn’t even start playing organized basketball until he was 14.

People don't think or forget about Tim Duncan because he was never flashy. He was just straight basketball and I completely agree with Shaq. Ya, the Spurs had Parker and Ginobli, but they needed Tim Duncan to win those championships. Wouldn't be able to do it on there own. Plus, all of his accolades are crazy: 15x allstar, 15x all-nba, 15x all defense, 2 MVPs and 3 finals MVPs. His game spoke for itself

I been a Spurs fan since 89 and we always had a pretty good team but in 96 we had our worse season ever. We got Timmy the next year. Im so grateful we got him because he gave me sheer pleasure for dam near 20 years. He was a instant sensation. After we loss to Utah in the playoffs i knew then we was a championship contender and when we won in 1999. Its been a championship mindset every year. Do you know how good that feels to have a team that good for almost 20 years expecting nba title every year? A feeling that i haven't felt in a while now. Usually if your team is ok your just hoping they can make it out the first round or past this team. With the Spurs and Duncan i was expecting nothing less then a nba championship. We got 5 in about 17 years with Duncan. Probably should have won 7 or 8 but hey ill take it. Anyway Duncan will always be the best power forward in my era 😊

This is what I tell kids who were making fun of the Spurs for being bad the past couple of seasons. I would always ask them, "Do you have any idea what it feels like to be the winningest franchise in the NBA for twenty years? That buys you a lot of loyalty with your fans." Really, only the Patriots and Yankees know what that feels like. And the Yankees haven't been in that territory for a long time. And they just do things the right way. Man, I love the Spurs.

Great video, Sean, Duncan was a lot of fun to watch, as odd as that sounds. I remember one play where he was about 10 feet from the hoop and a rebound bounced out to him. He took the ball in the air with one hand and flipped it to Boris Diaw under the rim for an easy 2. It wasn't a spectacular play in the way that we often think of, but it was just soooooo smart, so heads up. It achieved that magical feat of being spectacular without being spectacular. And I remember thinking at the time that Bill Russell probably loved that play more than anyone else who saw it. As for Steve Kerr's statement that Duncan was the best two-way player? Well, if Kerr meant for the bigs, I'd say that Olajuwon and Chamberlain might have something to say about THAT, but Duncan is definitly up there.

@@kevoncoxdirk maybe could’ve, but I don’t think so. Duncan was a 5 tool player, and an unselfish 5 tool player at that. He had incredible defense, rebounding, and played well in pick and roll, played perfectly on the low block, didn’t need the ball in his hands 24/7 to make an impact was a good mid range shooter, could block shots and had an unlimited post bag. He’s criminally underrated, and genuinely I think that no one would’ve been able to replace him I think if you put dirk on that team he would’ve brought more scoring yes but it would’ve taken away shots from Tony Parker, manu and everyone else. Plus dirk wasn’t as impactful on defense as Tim Duncan was. KG was fantastic on defense, and rebounding, but I don’t think he had as deep of a post bag as Duncan did and wasn’t as patient as Duncan was, and I don’t think that spurs system would’ve worked as well with KG there either.

I'm thankful I'm old enough to have followed basketball since the early 80's. But to watch Duncan and what he brought to the game was spectacular... As a Celtics fan, you couldn't help to watch the simplicity yet ruthlessness Tim had... and stayed HUMBLE. Great content, Brother... I love all your vids!!!

My all-time PF and Center would be Duncan and Olajuwon. They would be interchangeable and they are the two post players that could do it all in any era. Defense, Scoring, Rebounding, foot work, quickness, shooting, etc. The best all-around post players to ever play.

Shaq is so right. I love Manu, respect Tony. But Timmy is a true superstar cuz everything revolved around him with no other superstars on his level. He also covers his team defensively. Lebron feared Tim Duncan. I honestly think he knows TD is a more dominant player than he is

The man was just so pure in his game that you didn't even realize he had a wild stat line. There were so many games that I'd look up near the end of his game and he had like 30pt 15reb 7ast 2stl 6blk, and you say when did all that happen!

All Spurs fans have three woulda coulda memories, that are painful: 1. Duncan should have six championships. If he was left on the floor against the Heat, they would have won. 2006 finals They had the crowd control ropes out. The series was over. 2. Derek Fisher’s .4 second (super lucky) basket that won the game, right after Duncan’s amazing (lucky lol) shot over Shaq 2005 Conference Finals (I think) As a a Spurs fan that hurt, but it’s okay. Duncan will always be my favorite player. 3. Ginobli foul against Nowitzki Gervin Robinson Duncan ???????! Do we get another?

No player in the history of basketball won more than 1 title without a CURRENT All-NBA teammate Apart from Duncan, who did it 4 times. Top 3 longevity, top 7 peak, greatest winner, leader and teammate since Russell, 3rd greatest defender and best offensive player on 4 title teams (more than anyone bar MJ/LBJ) Top 5 player ever

When have you seen Shaq talk about another player like the inferior player? In my life I just heard him speak like this when he said anything about Duncan. And this to me proves even more how great Tim was and is. Look into the eyes of the players talking about him... Top 5 to me and will always be.

Laker fan here Tim Duncan was Me Fundamental. The thug. Is he never rash talked people or was even known for being a heel. He would actually kill ypu with kindness in interviews. Because he was not flashy he did not get the love he deserved. He could be having a quiet game and before you know it, you look up and see he has 25 points 14 rebounds and 7 assists, with 2 blocked shots. He was also a very good free throw shooter for a big man shot at 70 percent. I felt bad when I read he got swindled out of his money. TD was always a classy guy.
