***** I wouldn't call Shaq during Orlando as "Prime Shaq". Shaq had troubles against a prime Hakeem during 90's. Prime Shaq would be 1999-2000 to 2003-2004 Shaq. But yes, I agree with you. Dwight even had trouble guarding the Cavs/Phx/Boston versions of Shaq when Dwight was at his physical/athletic prime in Orlando

Tim Duncan is going to get his fifth ring in a few days. Impressive job!

Tim Duncan was 100% unguardable in his prime. You could not stop him, you could only hope he missed shots or got into foul trouble. Prime TD was a damned force of nature. Look at 0:59 in this video. That's a 7 footer running the break and slamming it coast-to-coast. Your eyes are not deceiving you. LOL

Strong cherry picking here brah. Duncan had 27ppg on 64%FG in the first 2 games. No point to hide it. Any moron could come up with cherry picking stats against any player, even prime Jordan. Duncan still averaged 21/12/3 @47%FG for the series, which is better than what Malone got in his MVP season against rookie Duncan in the playoffs. Plus, Malone avg 10/8 on 48%TS for the series LOL And it's not like the pace or the fact that he had prime Shaq covering his ass had nothing to do with it.

So crazy watching Dirk and Duncan here, they look so spry haha. Duncan is very animated here, contrary to his reputation nowadays. And Nash with the game winner, from the dude who would win back to back MVPs right after this. Cuban, you effed up.

Timmy has the best post moves with Hakeem and Kareem in the history of basketball

Rodman didn't shut down anybody. Shaq took a dump on the Bulls with MJ back in 95. Tim Duncan shot 47%FG in that 2004 series when LA had Shaq, GP, Kobe and Malone. Stop your bs. Rookie Duncan hold Malone to a pathetic 46%TS when he was the fucking MVP. GTFOH clown.

One of only two games the Mavs with those unis played in the Alamodome.

Duncan the best ever

After all-time greats put on an epic performance, Steve Nash comes in and steals the gold. Feels like the 2000s

GREAT stuff

WOW, TIM WAS A FREIGHT TRAIN! QUINTESSENTIAL TIM DUNCAN!

I'm so lucky, I got to go to this game. And then to Dennys afterwards to let what we just saw sink in. Sucks that we lost the game though. People left when there was less than a minute left when Dallas was up big, so we got to move down a section and watch history from better seats!

Damn what a game

GO NOWITZKI & DUNCAN !!!!

GREAT GAME!!!

I was at this game… It was the day after xmas 2001…. I remember thinking, “damn Dallas makes every three pointer!”. I’m still mad my spurs lost 22 years later…

Jesus Christ. easy to forget how insane early Duncan was

Yes he is!

Jeff Hoss Is that a joke? Dirk destroys Duncan on 3's, FT's, mid range and isolations. Dirk is faster and has better handles than Duncan. Dirk is definitely a better scorer, he's a better offensive player than Duncan.

26/13 is killing since when?

look at najera he's just standing there doing nothing and sh#t just as long as he's looking suave with his hair and basketball jersey

WHY???

Especially when Dirk did not even defend Duncan or vice versa.

From 1999-2003 was all Tim Duncan. 1999 he had help from David but it was bench player stats he got out of Robinson. Tim Duncan carrying most of the load. Besides David, help wise really nobody else. Alot of their players were well past their Prime's or told old. Shawn and AJ were obviously not the younger versions of them selves but when they were needed they came thou at key points. In 2000 Duncan didn't even get a chance to defend his crown. Due to injury he was out the rest of the year before the playoffs even started. He was playing better then the MVP Shaq that year before that injury and he was definitely in the talks for MVP before that injury. So the Lakers won against a Duncanless Spurs. If not for that injury Tim Duncan would have won league MVP and the title completing his back to back. And before u try to disagree.. Tim Duncan was playing way better basketball that year then he was in 1999 when they swept the Lakers and won a title.💯😂😂😂✌️In 2001 Tim Duncan was coming back from that injury that cost him his chance to repeat. Of course in 2001 & 2002 they loss. Can't remember the cause of 01s demise but I do know in 2002 the Spurs were so close to Winning that series. Derek Fisher crazy shot is what saved the Lakers and doomed the Spurs. Because if the Spurs would have won they would have won the title that year. And we all know about 2003 again all Duncan but this time he had help with a rookie Ginobili and sophomore Tony Parker. Tony bench stats but Manu- came thou and gave Duncan just enough to get it done. But Duncan was a animal that whole 2003. He was playing with a purpose and it's all because of what Shaq said the previous year. 😂😂😂 So if u think about it. It was Shaqs mouth that stopped the Lakers from getting 4 in a roll.😂😂😂 Thx Shaq.💯✌️
