Legend Of Winning I have Tim Duncan in my top 10 and I’ve got Kobe right outside the top 10 even though I enjoyed watching Kobe a lot more than Duncan. Anytime I’ve said that to other B-ball fans, they say I’m “crazy” for having TD ahead of Kobe. A lot of them made the “TD had a lot of help and Pop as coach” argument...like Kobe didn’t have Phil and Shaq along with other help over the years.

Thomas Koppe : Dejounte Murray made it to all defense team on his sophomore yr, not as a rookie.

Tim played in a system where stardom, ego, & stats were checked at the door. The result was five championships, endless playoff appearances, and exemplary teamwork.

Brayden Stultz Parker and Ginóbili were both skilled but what made San Antonio great was that they knew that if one player was having all the numbers they wouldn’t win. Tim probably could’ve averaged 30 but spurs wouldn’t have won as much because it would take away from his teammates

The "he had too much help" argument is the dumbest load of crap ever. By that logic, every legend should be knocked down. Shaq wouldn't have any rings without Kobe and D-Wade, Magic had a stacked team with Kareem and James Worthy (great situation), Kareem did not have playoff success without Magic and Oscar Robertson, Larry Bird wouldn't had won any rings if the Celtics didn't trade for Kevin McHale and Robert Parish, Kobe needed Shaq and Gasol to win championships, LeBron would still be ringless without D-Wade, Bosh, Kyrie, and Love, and even Jordan had no success in the playoffs before Scottie Pippen, Horce Grant (first three-peat), and Dennis Rodman (second three-peat) joined the team. I get that Duncan may not be flashy, but don't allow your bias to contradict your arguments because that's what it is.

As a lifelong Spurs fan (43 years old), this is my favorite video on KZread. One small comment - you mentioned the Spurs "tanking" in 1997 to get Tim, if you applied your same logic and examination to what actually happened that season, you would find that isn't what happened. 1) Signing Dominique to be a bench scorer in the offseason is not a tanking move 2) David had a back issue, came back, and THEN broke his foot 3) Pop was so disappointed in the coaching that he fired Bob Hill and took over coaching himself - why would he do that if he was trying to lose games? The Spurs "tanking" is just another lazy narrative advanced by haters and Laker fans. Five stars on this video.

@homerthompson416

2 жыл бұрын

I always heard Pop fired Bob Hill because David and AJ wanted him out, which would explain Pop taking over the day David came back from back injury for those 5 or 6 games before he broke his foot and missed the season. But Pop took the blame for it because he didn't want the media to label David a coach killer. And the blame was ugly, Kevin O'Keefe shit on Pop almost every day in the local paper after Hill got fired and made Pop very unpopular in San Antonio. It's likely the reason the vets were so loyal to Pop in 1999 when he was about to get fired and replaced with Doc Rivers. It's why they went on that ridiculous run starting in Houston the game after dropping to 6-8 in 1999.

Thank you!!! Someone finally putting RESPECT on Tim Duncan's name. Tim is top 5 all time in my opinion.

I love Tim Duncan and his attitude (along with the rest of Popp’s Spurs at the time). He wasn’t boring to me. I loved how he just got the job done and didn’t require a whole lot of attention.

Tim Duncan is also a gentleman. To the point where people thought he was boring. Guy's dry humor was hilarious to be honest. I've met him a few times. Absolute class act on and off the court.

Top 5 all time. Best player post-Jordan. Greatest franchise player (guy who played for one franchise that was built around him) of all time.

Great video, bud. I was fortunate to start watching the spurs in 1991. I got to watch Tim start and finish his career. He was definitely a selfless player, capable of more than he produced. His sacrifice made the team what it was.

As far as the "he had good teammates" argument goes: Basketball is a team sport, and great players know that and try to make their teammates better. And Duncan did that in spades, in no small part because of decisions he made, e.g. taking a pay cut so that Parker and Ginobili could get more. And that's a big part of why the Spurs led by Duncan did better than, say, the Knicks led by Melo. Part of the other reason Duncan gets less attention, I think, is because he never went around saying "I'm the greatest!" He preferred to make his legend on the court rather than in the press.

Great Video!! I noticed no Yao Ming in the beginning. He schooled Shaq when Shaq was in his prime - making him resort to aggressive tactics found in football and other fight sports because basketball skills weren't working for him.

Welcome to the world of the OldHeads. You’ve finally lived long enough to hear people who weren’t old enough or intelligent enough try to set the narrative on a player you saw play. Duncan is (arguably for some, definitively for me) the best player of his era. He is more credentialed than anyone that played in his era. Anyone. Yes, that includes Shaq and Kobe and anyone else that played in his era. Kobe is the most popular, but his resume doesn’t match up to TD’s. And please, name me the guy as good as Shaq, Kobe, Kareem, Magic, McHale, or Pippen.

You are exactly the problem. You never saw him live, but you'd say he was second behind Kobe. If you didn't see Duncan, you obviously didn't see Kobe either. How can you give an informed opinion then? If you did research, you'd see that Duncan has more accolades, more accomplishments, won more MVPs, and was a better defender (arguably one of the very best ever). A Duncan-led team never won less than 50 games and never missed the Playoffs. Kobe is markedly worse in every single thing I mentioned. The only thing Kobe did better than Duncan was score points, and it's not like Duncan was a poor scorer.

He is EVERYTHING you want from your superstar. He's the dream player to build a team around. He's the ultimate player. 20 years of greatness, 20 years of winning, 20 years of playoffs contention. He's one the very, very, very best to ever play the game. Period.

His "system" is to adapt to the players he has. He played slow with Duncan and Robinson, fast with Parker and Ginobili, 3 point heavy with Belinelli and Patty Mills, and now mid-range centric with Aldridge and DeRozan. If you think the USA team losing discredits him in anyway you're just foolish. A team that has played together for what a month compared to a team that plays together nearly year round and for years on are apples and oranges. Plus, the teams they lost to probably had the better overall player on the court. Jokic and Gobert are better than anyone on the USA team. The team shot 26% from 3 and 66% from the FT line against France. Serbia shot 48% from 3 which is tough to beat for any team. However, even with all that said, they had like 2 all-stars on the team.
