I'm just saying I don't think Duncan is the best big man ever, let alone best player ever, and being flashy has 0 to do with it. It's the fact he never was better than Kareem that holds him back from the GOAT conversation. When comparing Tim and Kareem, you see Kareem averaged 34 on 57 percent, Tim averaged 25 on 50, then they are at least comparable everywhere else on the court, I just don't buy that Duncan is held back due to flash.

Ima say this Tim Duncan had it made in San Antonio but he also made San Antonio

Just to note since for whatever reason most people don't know this when they're overrating Bill Russells 11 NBA championship rings In Russels rookie season 1956-57 - there were only 8 total teams in the NBA. Then in 1961-62 they added a new team - 9 teams. 1966-67 -10 teams. In 1967-68 - 12 teams. In 1968-69 Russels last season 14 teams. And besides the ridiculously limited teams, the NBA was a mess. There weren't team salary caps. I don't even think there were salary minimums. The Celtics had a relatively stacked team and half the teams were new franchises trying to get off the ground. The competition was astronomically less compared to now. For me at least it's extremely difficult to rank players pre 1970 and even pre 1980 to a lessor degree. There were even at the very least a decent percentage of pro calibar players not playing pro basketball during Russels timeline for a wide array of reasons. Compared to today when there's a global network feeding guys into the NBA system. And so much about the game has changed... it's comparing apples to oranges. When looking at most top 50 or top 100 players list it's amazing how overrated the old school players are, pre 1970. They end up comprising over 35% on the average best players list. To put it in perspective the total number of players in the NBA on a yearly basis added up from 1950-1970 (they had smaller team rosters as well) is equivalent to the combined players for 3 years any time during the last 30 years. Even if you create a fantasy land where you don't penalize old school players for their limited competition and skill levels, they should only comprise 15% if one was to consider total player volume, not that one necessarily should, but smaller/limited competition should certainly be taken into account.

It’s crazy to hear someone say the Spurs were a bad franchise. When Robinson came that franchise turned around. I’m a 90s kid I don’t need to look up stats to tell me who was good. Spurs was always in the playoffs, because he wasn’t alive or was a baby at the time he’s always making claims 90s teams are horrible. ‘95 Spurs was supposed to be in Finals that year. Robinson was MVP but Hakeem Olajuwon gave him the business in conf finals.

My question Is, how many people have Duncan ranked Top 3-5? To use that small of a sample size to say he’s overrated Is silly.

The big issue I had was when he knocked Duncan for having HOF players and coaches. If you look at most of the players considered top 10 players ever, damn near every one of them needed HOF players/coaches to win championships. Jordan won 6 and he had Pippen, Phil Jackson and Rodman (second 3 peat). Kareem won 6 and he had Oscar Robertson and Bob Dandridge (Milwaukee) and Magic, James Worthy, Silk Wilkes, and Pat Riley (Lakers). (Also Bob McAdoo) Magic won 5 and he had Kareem, Worthy, Wilkes and Pat Riley. (Also Bob McAdoo) Larry Bird won 3 and he had Kevin McHale, Robert Parish, and Dennis Johnson. (Also Tiny Archibald and Bill Walton) Shaq won 4 and he had Kobe, Phil Jackson, Wade, and Pat Riley. Kobe won 5 and he had Shaq, Phil, and Pau Gasol. Lebron won 4 and he had/has Wade, Bosh, Erik Spoelstra, Kyrie, and AD. (Also Ray Allen) Steph won 4 and he had/has Klay, Draymond, Steve Kerr, and KD. It doesn't make sense knocking Tim Duncan for winning 5 championships with a HOF coach (Pop) and some HOF teammates (Parker, Ginobili, David Robinson, Kawhi) if you're not going to do the same to the others.

Tim Duncan is a top 10 player of all time. We're talking about a man that beat Shaq and Kobe in the playoffs. And honestly, 4-10 all time are a complete toss up. If you put Timmy 4th or 5th after MJ, LeBron, and Kareem, I feel like that just means you value defense and consistency, cause he's definitely the best defender amongst the remaining people in the top 10 people and it's not really close. But it's still perfectly valid pick to put him in your top 5. I don't order anybody past 4 anyway, they just exist in that range.

@@lookatcodyman654 Duncan was a better defender than Jabbar and had to uplift rosters that were arguably less talented around him than Jabbar had to when the latter began to win championships, especially when comparing the two when they were starting off. While Duncan had very little roster consistency and his main co star was an injury impacted David Robinson and two unproven players at the time in Tony Parker and Manu Ginobli, Kareem was surrounded by guys like Bob Dandrige and Oscar Robinson, as well as important secondary pieces like John McGlocklin, with Lucius Allen later coming into the picture for the brunt of his run with the Bucks. You can even argue that later in their careers that, while reduced in their dependency on him, Duncan was still the centerpiece of the Spurs team on the offensive and defensive side of the ball in contrast to Kareem who, while very much important to the 80s Lakers no doubt, was second to Magic. Duncan was also arguably the better rebounder of the two, especially on the defensive side of the glass in the low post when looking at their per 100 possessions stats head to head. To be fair to Kareem, the first four years of his career when it comes to rebounding stats are not recorded, so it does leave a bit of a data gap. Additionally, when it comes to raw numbers, Kareem does have the leg up on Duncan. Another stat in Duncan's favor is his VORP rating as he is almost a full 6 points clear of Kareem when it comes to VORP, registering a 91.1 career rating to Kareem's 85.7. It isn't a seismic gap, but it is enough of one that still shows a difference and that is despite Duncan playing one less season. On top of that, while Kareem's career peak saw meteoric numbers in Box Plus/Minus whether it was overall, offensive exclusively, or even at times on the defensive end, the tail off of those Box Plus/Minus numbers later in his Lakers run was very noticeable to where it even began to dip into the negatives. Now...that should be expected for a player when they get older, but in Duncan's case that's not as such. Duncan never had a single season where he had a negative overall Box Plus/Minus. In fact his Box Plus/Minus in his final year wasn't only a positive score, but his defensive Box Plus/Minus was still as high as it was in his prime and led the league at 3.1. Even with age reducing his role offensively, Duncan was still a massive contributor to the Spurs defense in his final years in the league. Now again, due to a lack of data missing, Kareem's Box Plus/Minus scores are technically incomplete, so I am only working from the data available. Still, from start to finish, Duncan was the bedrock for Popovich to build his system off of for the Spurs. I think that both players are elite centers and the margin between the two of them is slim. That said, I think because of his longevity as a focal point to the Spurs throughout his entire career, especially on the defensive side of the ball, Tim Duncan has the slightest edge over Kareem. It's so close though that I can accept people still rating Kareem higher than Duncan and putting Duncan as either a 3B or 4th. Kareem is one of the greatest centers in the history of the NBA. The only reason why I say Duncan would push out Kareem instead of LeBron and Jordan is because they both play an inherently more valuable position in the NBA as ball dominant wings who control possession the majority of the game and have the offense run through them as opposed to the big man.

@@sebastiansanchez375 In Kareem's first season in LA, with Lucius Allen following him there from the Bucks, the Lakers went 40-42 missing the playoffs and finishing one win below their expected win total of 41. In Kareem's defense, he did have to carry a semi depleted Lakers team. Outside of Allen, the only co star Kareem had with the Lakers in year one was Gail Goodrich. This forced Kareem to put up astronomical numbers on both ends of the court and be an elite ball distributor for the team to even have a shot. Numbers which propelled him to be the league MVP over Dave Cowens and Bob McAdoo, two of the elite centers in the NBA during the 70s that also had fantastic seasons in 75-76. The Lakers also had to move Bill Sharman out of the coaching seat and into the GM office, because, by that point, he lost the Laker locker room after an abysmal 30-52 season the year before. In fact, it got somewhat tougher for Kareem as Jerry West came on as a rookie head coach and they had to lean even more on Kareem after Goodrich left and put their hopes on Lucius Allen and Cazzie Russel, who had an abysmal year before, to be his supporting cast. Kareem, as expected, stepped up to the plate and had another monster year and got rewarded with back to back MVPs and got LA back to the playoffs only to be bounced by the eventual NBA Champions in the Portland Trail Blazers, but no harm no foul there. They remedied the roster issues in the late 70s by getting Adrian Dantley, Jamaal Wilkes, and Charles Scott through trades and adding Norm Nixon through the draft to stay competitive and it made Kareem's job easier. Still, it was clear that they needed something else and Jerry West, as serviceable as he was, maxed out his potential with that team as coach. Seeing the writing on the wall, Sharman swapped Dantley for a now 31 year old Spencer Haywood to be a role player, drafted Magic Johnson, put Paul Westhead and later Pat Riley in charge, and the rest is history. Long story short, yes Kareem needed Magic to win rings in LA but it wasn't like Jabbar got the late 60s and early 70s Laker teams to play with either. The Lakers got Jabbar from the Bucks because they needed to start from scratch in order to keep up with the Celtics.

I’m a Spurs fan and the the Spurs org/Pop argument is kinda silly. Jordan, Kobe, and Shaq all had Phil Jackson. The Lakers are a powerful organization that are able to sign essentially any player they want. But this argument is held only to Duncan.

You clearly didn't watch the Jimmy video bc he slanders LeBron. Secondly, downplaying Duncan would be downplaying Bron's competition, so it only helps LeBron for Duncan to be uplifted instead of slandered. You gotta think before you speak, or ur gonna just look like a hater.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. Jimmy is not disrespecting Tim Duncan whatsoever, he's just saying he's (slightly) outside of the top 5 and giving credit to how good the Spurs system was. I think that is absolutely true. He should be in everyone's top 10, but putting him in top 3-5 is a bit much imo

More Finals mvps and regular mvps than Kobe yet you guys say he's overrated 🤣🤣🤣

wouldn’t say tim duncan is overrated. tim is exactly who he is and was. Is he the greatest power forward ever…NO, ESPN has helped push that narrative. How when he played most of his career as a center. Is he a top 5 player ever…NO. How when you have the KB24’s,The Birds,The Magic Johnsons,The LBJ’s, The Kareem and Jordans. Is he a top 5 PF…Yes? In our opinion the greatest pf of all time debate should rightfully go to the always underrated Karl Malone. People forget that TD came in the league at the right time and dominated a league that became guard orriented . But let’s not forget when he entered the league the eldestatemen of the PF position was Malone who was STILL dominating the league and the position for 6-8 yrs afterwards. People ALWAYS FORGET smh

What people mean about consistency they mean about spurs front office making great decisions throughout duncan’s career and barely wasting his career like the lakers did with kobe (in his prime) for example, also gregg popovich wasn’t a rookie coach his whole career bruh, he literally became a top 3 coach ever if not 1. I got Duncan top 4 all time tho, he’s done a lot with no much help compared to other greats.

He didn’t bother looking at what the spurs was before , he just took what happened for granted and make it like pop was always great and spurs was like prime golden state …

Literally no one called tim duncan a role player here this video lmao😂😂😂 low trying to be a sleek ...stop this bs man someone making a take that tim duncan is not a top 5 player of all time is not that big of a deal ...just stop this

That 2003 run is the second greatest of all time after the 95 rockets in my opinion 💯

Not fair to pass off Genobli as a typical rooky as he had already been a seasoned pro before he got to the NBA. Of course Timmy was the most responsible, but no great player gets it done without the right players around him. Pop did his job and continued to do his job from the 2nd championship on.

Tim Duncan is the greatest Power forward of All time.

Duncan is great, but placing him in the top ten is a big ask.

Which is a very casual/disingenuous take anyway when you sit back and think that in 21 years, he's only played for 3 teams. People just get mad about Bron changing teams bc he didn't wait til his career was almost over to change teams.

Tim Duncan was AMAZING!!!

6:00, ok this is a straight up lie, the spurs where mostly successful in the 90's baring that year before Duncan arrived. 90-96 then 98 onwards the spurs were successful. Do ur research youngin before u spread misinformation.

@@sebastiansanchez375 True but that doesn't sound like a counter to what he said, apparently they were still a good team 59-23 and even the year before that, btw they got the #1 pick because of that David Robinson injury so they were actually successful before TD just once TD came in they were MORE successful. Also, Tim Duncan was a role player in the 2015-16 season and they went 67-15 second seed, sure you can say tim duncan was a fair leader but they had kawhi and Lamarcus Aldridge, duncan was at 8.3ppg, next year without time duncan (he retired) they were 61-23, they actually dropped the year after to 47-35 (7th seed) because kawhi got injured and funny enough after kawhi went to go play with the raptors and win a championship they were still 7th seed 48-34. I mean I do like listening to LOW's but ngl he is actually kinda delusional here. As @charles9489 said he is actually spreading misinformation ironically as he claims others are spreading misinformation.

Yes tf is

Tim Duncan was a generational player. He was the one who changed the spurs and made them into the great organization we see them as today. What was Chicago before Jordan made them into what they were? There’s a lot of teams who benefited from 1 generational player and for the spurs it was Tim. Will I put Tim in my top 10? No, I remember hating the spurs back then and I’m a bulls fan. Not a hate of malice but respected and wish the bulls back then can draft a player and build around him just like the spurs did with Duncan

In HIS DEFENSE, he said hot takes lol. Everyone got some questionable ones. Jimmy gets the pass 😂

I agree with Jimmy
