    Not the greatest, not the best, but the most perfect.
    I've been saying Tim Duncan had a career that was as close to flawless as you could really get, and here's why I think that.

      One of the biggest coaching blunders ever. Up 5 points with like 30 seconds when leading 3-2 in the series. Popovich decided to take Duncan out of the game, bc coach wanted better perimeter defense. They got the good perimeter defense, but not the rebound. The rebound went to Miami and the rest was history. Duncan would’ve grabbed that rebound and the Spurs would’ve won the title. I remember literally screaming at the tv. Pop was like: “ok team let’s go win this title, one more stop and we win. Duncan, go to the bench. We are gonna win this one without you.” Popovich out coached himself. Despite the fact that Duncan had like 30 pts n 12 boards. Popovich is and was a great coach; but not on that night.

      I think he is as good in defending as Dikembe Mutombo. How did he not get a dpoy. He is also one of the 5 players to ever get a quadruple double (Not officially cause mistakes by refs. One block was counted as Robinsons even tho Duncan was the first to touch the ball and for one block it the shot didn’t count as a shot attempt in the eyes of the refs). If you get 20 Rebounds and 10 Blocks in a game then you gotta be a great defender. He also averaged 3 Blocks per game for most of his career. That’s way better the. Even Giannis. And over his 19 year career he averaged as many Blocks as Giannis in his best block season. He also averaged a double double with rebounds.

    Duncan is perfect in the sense that he's been the only guy to have a dynasty in a small NBA market.
    It's pretty much unheard of for a city like San Antonio to stay that competitive for nearly 20 years and Duncan was the centerpiece of it all.
    We see small market teams make dents in the status quo. Like the Kings with Webber, the Suns with Nash, OKC with Durant, Malone and Stock in Utah, Shaq in Orlando. But usually they don't win championships.

      Felipe NUFC when it comes to nba basketball, yes it was. The team only started in the 80s, not technically a “big market” when there are other things to do, and the city is heavily international and basketball was not “popular”. He made point of 20 years in a small market and being dominant. I would say the heat from the late 90s (after jordan retired) up until recently - and i think miami was #3 in the east before the nba stopped) i would say thats a long stretch. Yes, they had fans for dwade, but it wasnt until lebron played there that the big fanfare ensued. And now, its empty seats in the stands again.

If he only played those years with the Bucks he’s at worst because of the Greek freak the second greatest buck ever(still debatable). And he was at worst the 4th greatest laker ever. That’s insane, it may not be perfect but it’s the greatest basketball career and it’s not even close. He’s got that room all to himself.

    • @mrmacross
      @mrmacross 4 роки тому +1

      Since we're singing Kareem's praises, he also should've won the 1980 Finals MVP. Everyone remembers Magic's 42 in game 6. They forget the Lakers were winning 3-2 going into that game because Kareem was a beast, scoring 40 on a bum ankle in game 5. Kareem outscored Magic by 38 points that series even without playing one minute of game 6, but since the media votes for the award and they love their narratives, Magic got the MVP. If you're going to say Magic won them the finale, at least say Kareem won them the first three wins.
      Imagine, if Kareem won Finals MVP in 1980, his already-illustrious career would be even more legendary. I feel like missing game 6 and not winning MVP of the series actually had a significant impact on how people view his NBA career.

    He’s the best of the best, I love Duncan so much I idolized him a lot with the number 21 being the notable thing about him. Coach pop instilled discipline to Duncan knowing to trust the process.

    His personality and complete absence of ego makes him the perfect teammate. Plus when you have guy like that who is also a superstar calibre player you have a true example of a rolemodel. Sadly, because media always needs a first page story, this guy is very underrated.
