Duncan solidified himself as an all time great player in that 2003 season..

@@raytrevino3184 2003 served as a proof the 1999 run that he led at age 23 is no fluke. He justified the "asterisk" Title by winning it all again in 2003, no less at the expense of Phil (who called the "asterisk"), Shaq ("WNBA team"), and Kobe's ("maybe we will sweep them again") swagger by dethronement.

That 4th quarter comeback with the 19-0 run in Game 6 of the Finals is criminally underrated.

Duncan's near-quadrouple double too. Rarely did he dominate a single game like a Shaq or Kareem, but he was transcendent that night.

2003 was a year of Transition while still completing for a championship. The only time where Manu, TP, Tim and the Admiral were in one team. The last year of The Twin Towers and a preview of the best Big 3 of this generation.

I've seen all 5 championships and this one is my favorite

​@@CharlesHoward-wi8euwow those are both such great title's.. but who could go against the first one after 26 year's in 1999 or the most dramatic and hardest one the 2005 Spurs title team and my personal favorite I aged as a 19 year old during that season the '04-'05 sea. n felt like two seasons in one. And Detroit was the hardest team we ever faced even Harder than that super team heat of 2013-2014.

Tears of joy watching this. Kevin Willis crying made me cry. THIS IS THE BEST SPURS CHAMPIONSHIP!

Love this, fan from the UK 🇬🇧 Go Spurs Go 🏀⚫️⚪️

2003 is my favorite championship because I got to be there for the marbury shot, the Horry miss, and got chosen to be on the floor for the player introduction and shake malik’s hand. I remember driving home after the championship winning game and people running on the highway celebrating.

What a dynamic duo of Tim and David!!

2003 NBA Finals. Great day for the Spurs to win. I was 16 at the time. Still gets me nostalgic.

From '99 to 2013 we met the Lakers seven times. I'll never forget how heated this rivalry was. It turned to a war after the spurs sweep in '99. So from 2001-2004 it was a hard brutal match up. For both teams. Duncun was incredible so was manu but we got to see Kobe at his absolute best. I'll never forget it. Beating them in '03 making them cry on national t.v. was like winning another title within itself the lakers we're undefeated in the playoffs during that entire three peat going into thier would be fourth only for the Spurs to end it. And we win our 2nd and on Daves last year. Than steve kerrs dramatic game winning shots, It was truly a perfect season that I'll never forget.

This is my favorite bench of all the Championship teams

Watching this after another disappointing cowboys loss - makes me happier

I remember this championship more than ever. I was at school that time and flunk my exam due to constant boxscore checking. Sleepless nights also. Especially that game 6. Damn! Time flies.🤣

Tim was on a mission.... to send his buddy Big Dave out as a Champion!!!!!! MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

I’m not crying !! You’re crying !

I remember watching a KZread diver go into that San Antonio Riverwalk to see what he could find...he found a lot of beads...pretty sure it was the Spurs championships

Dirk got his statue. I know Tim Duncan wouldn't care to have one but still WHERE THE HELL IS HIS STATUE SAN ANTONIO??

Lets go Spurs!

Well I had a good cry watching this. I'm glad I had the honor to watch these Pros. They don't make them like they used to.

Man these memories hit hard! Love my Spurs All the championship Runs live in my heart ❤️

I love that David retired on top a championship. Call me greedy but if David Robinson doesn't retire in 03 spurs win 5 STRAIGHT championships. He could have rode the bench like udonis haslem.

No disrespect to Udonis Haslem (btw, he was in Spurs summer league/training camp roster in 2003 until found a spot in Miami), but that is why DRob50 is one of basketball greats while Haslem is great in Heat standards. I don't think Robinson sees himself as a coach or player development staff. Like Timmy, both knew when it is over and they're willing to leave once their careers are up and done while letting the team grow and flourish in their absence.

Omg can't wait for 2005 to come, my favourite chip. All the injuries to the team with Timmy especially taking on 3 great defensive bigs on the Pistons (Wallace's and Dice), Manu giveth and Manu taketh, Tony soaring and the best coaching chess match with Brown and Pop.

And nobody forget about all the grades Stephen Jackson Robert horry everyone that helped win and a shout-out to my Michigan boys

That stat line for a close out game in the finals??!! Amazing

13:52 I wasn't alive back then, it's almost 20 years since then, but this line still gives me goosebumps.

Be ready at anytime was the mentality he learned from winning championships with Jordan

Michael Jordan-1991,Tim Duncan-2003,Dirk Nowitzki-2011 and LeBron James-2012

Second Title is critical to San Antonio more than we knew. Imagine a cringing thought the Spurs went home early. David Robinson retired, then Tim Duncan reconsidered his future elsewhere. As usual, the Spurs kept the "serious urgency" within so to stave off media and public pressure/scrutiny and thankfully they clinch the franchise's 2nd Larry. J-Kidd admitted he got "cold feet" so he re-signed in NJ, but his mind and heart tells he wants to play for the Spurs. It is definitely a win-win for both camps, with the Spurs had stronger chance to win 2004 and 2006. But it didn't happen, so back to reality. Gratefulness sets in, although how I wish the TNT trio of Marv, Mike, and Jeff covered the 2003 NBA Finals instead. Bill Walton's commentary is too much to bear. Or ABC should underwent a last-minute dismissal then hired Hubie Brown.

My favorite quote came from David Robinson bwhen he Said That Kerr was the secon coming nof the second coming nof the iceman because he was cold in the bench that long was appropriate statement.😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤gobdpuurs go

Kidd the best pg of that era and top 5-8 best players in the game

I think you lose almost all the weight of Kerr's G6 when you skip over the rest of the series. If you had to be quick about it start at G1's loss (just show Duncan's missed FT's and nothing else if you're speed-running this docuseries). You can jam the Spurs winning game 2 3 4 AND a mention of Dirk's injury into a ~30 second Spurs highlight montage, and then begin to take some time with games 5 and 6. Show the Spurs cruising to a Finals berth up 17 early in the 3rd Q of G5. The crowd celebrating, high-fives being thrown, we're going back to the Finals and then.. "inexplicably, they wilted" (shoutout 2007 championship DVD). Show the Mavericks comeback in G5. Don't short it. The 2007 championship DVD did it tastefully for G4 of the Suns series and in only 30 seconds. Next show the rabid Mavs crowd in G6 (they were rowdy af). Show the Mavs threatening to blow out the Spurs in the 3Q of G6, talk about Tony's food poisoning at that time, nobody wanting to go back for a G7 in SA after being up 3-1, and THEN Kerr. If time is really that valuable you could even skip all of games 1-4, but at the very least show the Spurs setting course for the Finals in G5. As it was done the episode BEGINS with the collapse of G5. At least show the Spurs build-up in that game! Show ANY of G6 prior to Kerr checking in. It's hard to even say this episode was rushed because it spent 4 minutes talking about Kerr's G6. I think emotionally it would have landed better to dedicate more time building the tension of the series preceding that moment even if it's at the expense of people fawning over Kerr for 3 minutes. As a whole I love the series but I think Kerr's G6 should have been documented differently and it would have actually made Kerr's performance feel even more significant. You can spend less time talking about the moment and make it feel even larger by establishing the preceding tension better.

Don Nelson slowed SA down big time in game 1 with "hack-a-bruce," too. And there was an outside chance of Dirk maybe even trying to come back and play if a game 7 happened. The pressure was ON big time after SA blew it in game 5 allowing dallas to comeback. The way the mavs were playing in game 6, it almost felt as if they'd figured San Antonio out. And, in a way, they HAD. There was no way they'd have been able to account for (of all people) Steve Kerr coming off the bench that way. I don't think Kerr had played more than 10 minutes the entire PLAYOFFS, and certainly not in that series. An ambush for the ages that absolutely saved SA. It does lose some of the gravitas without proper context. We HAD to have that game 6, or there wasy a real possibility it would have all unraveled.
