I'm a Lakers fan and I always thought the Spurs were awesome.. They just had smart guys that knew how to beat you no matter who their opponent was! And I loved the fact that Kawhi punk'd the Queen in the '14 Finals!! Sweet!!
Born and raised here in San Antonio and celebrated all five championships but out of The Big Three, Manu Ginobili is by far my favorite athlete in any sport his heart and dedication to the game is unmatched💯
Playboi Jordan Tv Tim Duncan is better than dirk. Dirk is a better shooter but Duncan has the most rounded game on both ends. Which makes him the greatest PF.
Not just my favorite NBA player but my favorite athlete of all time. This man is literally the GOAT of the Spurs franchise. He has done and accomplished so much for the city of San Antonio and never showed off or be flashy and he never asked for anything. He just played the game of basketball, he let his fundamentals and skill of basketball do the talking. That’s how he got respect, by just showing up to work and practice and play the game of basketball. No doubt Hall of Famer
At first I was like, there is no way I am going to sit and watch this... I watched this as a whole and will watch it over and over. Favorite player ever... Tim Duncan Da Gawd
I agree. At first I was like wow this is longer than expected, but as it went on, so many memories came back. I relived the heart break of 2013 all over. Danny Green was so hot then cooled all the way off, and before I knew it, I was hooked and will definitely watch it again
The way he worked through and defeated the daily grind that is life is what impresses me the most. He showed up to work everyday and always performed and could be counted on. It's very hard to do in life. What he accomplished as a guy with a job that did what was expected, reliably, consistently, and with class is, by far, the biggest achievement.
First thing coming into mind is that I didn't appreciate this man enough. Duncan is so special and unique, he has what I call "a powerful peace". Best PF ever, best coach-player relationship you can find in any sports, quietest all time great. And the BGM please.
@@DC4L1991 He hasn't even been gone that long. At least they still make playoffs. Lakers haven't been in about 5 years. Besides, Timmy is the undisputed best at the power forward position.
NFA love Timmy but we went 67-15 legit the year after went to the conference finals and then zaza happened. But yeah we wouldn’t be the spurs without Tim Duncan
thank you timmy, the big fundamental, never asked for attention, never had to be flashy or selfish, was all about winning....for a very long time.... makes my all time 5 best players at Pforward slot, along with Jordan, Hakeem, Bird and Magic, can't think of any other 5 who could beat that...
cant take anything away from jabbar but personally if you take both at their prime you cannot go wrong, i happen to love hakeem for his shot blocking and mid range jumpers and fantastic footwork and faster rebounding speed, but jabbar was fantastic too, then come to think about it in their prime chamberlain cannot be topped, it is a matter of choice and fit on a team
... i have deep respect for the humility of tim duncan ... he quietly retired the same year kobe bryant had a farewell tour ... that is what i admired him the most ... his humility despite all his accomplishments ... thank you timmy !!!
I miss Timmy! My favorite player all time. I will always argue he was the best big man. I’ll never forget learning the bank shot from the block move. Had a tournament in Houston. And dominated off that one move hahaha!
2007-2008 spurs vs suns in the playoffs game seven with less then 5 secs left spurs inbound to Duncan to shot a three pointer for the with win😬😂😬 best feeling ever
He also promised Bill Russell that he would win another title for him. This interview between him and Bill took place after he had his 4th title. "He not only makes guarantees! But he keeps promises as well! That is MJ and 🐐 like.💯✌️
I'm so happy I was able to watch his whole career thank you Mr Duncan I have always been a spurs fan and you were the missing piece to 5 champions...again thank you...
Man I get chills everytime watching this video. I cant think of not one player in the NBA that was class act like Timmy D, maybe Alex English, but man the way Duncan carried his self shows character. I wish most of us in life had that, but sometimes we have to found it and nothing is wrong with that. Thank you Timmy D for the hard work u put in & definitely the sacrifice u made to build a winning team around u. 1 more thing that trips me out the sacrifice Duncan made on his salary. Unbelievable how under paid he was. Easily top 10 PLAYER OF ALL TIME, NOT PF, putting this man in my all time greats.
Amazing video, I really miss watching this man play some the best basketball i've ever seen. The 18 years I've been a fan of him and this team, I'm so glad that he finally accepted the assistant coaching job he's had lined up for years. His knowledge and leadership while a player will no doubly carry through with his coaching. Thanks again showing the nba what a nba team should be like.
miss u tim .... tears............ so classy.. so humble... so good............. wish you would have done a farewell tour... but that is not who you are. .. know ............. we love you ... we respect you ... and will greatly miss you.... have a good life ..
thank you so much for making us happy tim duncan,we will never,never forget your greatness,you will always be in our hearts! we surely miss you so much and this tribute will make us happy then,thank you so much
I haven't watched a Spurs game since you retired Timmy. It's too emotional for me not to see my favorite player play again.. I grew up watching you play since 1997 until the day you retired..
Jabbar, James, Jordan, Magic, Bird... Big men are constantly disrespected on "all-time" lists... I'd take Olajuwon over Duncan, Duncan over Kobe... He's top 10 for sure
The man would be 6-0 had pop not overcoached and take him out in last seconds. I know he would have got that board over Bosh and iced the finals at the line. #2 all time considering 5 rings in a small market is equivalent to 10. So sorry Wilt Kareem Bird Russell. It's MJ 1 Duncan 2 and had Duncan got that 6th ring it would be a tie for 1
He broke the mold in minorities being in the NBA.Was a pioneer and force to reckon with both on the court and off.Major respect to one of the all time greats.
The reason basketball means anything to me is because of this guy right here. A true legend. In a time where loyalty means nothing to fans or players the reason I stay a Spurs fan is because Duncan never wavered.
I really miss this man on the court! Never had a moment where I questioned his heart. He left everything out there, ever single night. The greatest spur of all time! The legendary Tim Duncan, whose #21 jersey hangs in the rafters of the AT&T Center in San Antonio City :)
One of the best PF/C to play the game. Loved watching him and Robinson control the paint and loved watching “The Beautiful Game” nothing like Spurs Basketball #GSG #TD21
Cried. Tim gave us everything. Absolutely played his heart out and brought so much to sa. Put Sa on the map. God bless you Timothy Duncan. Im 20 i loved ya. My dad did 2
🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐 (7) .......the best fundamental in the paint hands and mid range for a center player to ever do it ....nuff ratings for Tim Duncan...don't worry brother I can never you didn't do your part wow great nba player well respected too 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Still can't get over how our glorious Spurs got robbed in 2015. And in 2016. And in 2017. Duncan could have had two more titles. He is still the best player ever. Thank you, Tim Duncan, for all the joy you brought to us. Hoping to meet you someday in person.
Tim Duncan was drinking from the Fountain of Youth he was still very good into his later years of his career amazing and plus we are talking about a big man which makes it even more impressive
My second favorite player next to MJ. Ive been rooting this player and his spurs after the bulls disbanded. Duncan's all around finesse play style is effective for a big man. How I wish he extended more years in nba.

thank you Tim for bringing 5 rings too San Antonio
You know how insane that is dudes a legend
I'm a Lakers fan and I always thought the Spurs were awesome.. They just had smart guys that knew how to beat you no matter who their opponent was! And I loved the fact that Kawhi punk'd the Queen in the '14 Finals!! Sweet!!

Gsg bring tears to my eyes...

my favorite NBA player of all time
You're boring then.
TheShot Doctorr
Duncan
(5rings)(3fmvp)(2mvp)(5-6)
Great leader
Elite defender
Never missed a playoff in entire career.
Ok? What does any of that have to do with the comment I left? He's a boring dude. If he's your favorite, then you're probably boring too.
TheShot Doctorr you sound stupid
you sound boring
The greatest Power Forward of all time. PERIOD
Sammy Sam cough* dirk
Playboi Jordan Tv Tim Duncan is better than dirk. Dirk is a better shooter but Duncan has the most rounded game on both ends. Which makes him the greatest PF.
@@FLOWLIKEJORDAN What ???Dirk?? Seriously? Dude you must be a rookie to say such thing.
@@FLOWLIKEJORDAN yeah... choke on that lunacy

So many great things can be said about Tim. One thing is for certain he always got his money because the bank was always open for Timmy.
nice one
Hands down, one of the most respected players. The man had unwavering integrity. We miss you on the court, Old Man Riverwalk
And Demarcus Cousins needs to get off his 38 burner accounts. The man cooked you.
At first I was like, there is no way I am going to sit and watch this...
I watched this as a whole and will watch it over and over.
Favorite player ever...
Tim Duncan Da Gawd
Myrick McRae same bro
I agree. At first I was like wow this is longer than expected, but as it went on, so many memories came back. I relived the heart break of 2013 all over. Danny Green was so hot then cooled all the way off, and before I knew it, I was hooked and will definitely watch it again
Da gawd and da goat
wish you just still playing basketball you thought me a lot of the game of basket ball thank you tim ducan ❤❤❤❤💪💪💪💪
im cryin...
that same day retired I did
me too
hypnotist Robin me too
hypnotist Robin me too man
I'm crying right now
We 1000% took his greatness for granted.
This is actually the greatest highlight reel I’ve ever seen
The way he worked through and defeated the daily grind that is life is what impresses me the most. He showed up to work everyday and always performed and could be counted on. It's very hard to do in life. What he accomplished as a guy with a job that did what was expected, reliably, consistently, and with class is, by far, the biggest achievement.

not the best player ever, but the best player that the NBA could ever wish for
You can make a case that he is, San Antonio didn’t win until he got there and haven’t won anything close after he left...
NFA I agree and im not even a Spurs fan
@@DC4L1991 He hasn't even been gone that long. At least they still make playoffs. Lakers haven't been in about 5 years. Besides, Timmy is the undisputed best at the power forward position.

Hmmmm. An argument could be made for it. Top 5 for sure.
Best Power Forward In NBA History and the best player of his era!A Class Act!!!!Thank You Tim Duncan
I'm going to miss Tim Duncan but the spurs are still my favorite team #SPURSFAN4LIFE
Everybody gonna miss him
The great Tim Duncun shows why he's one of the All Time Greats
thank you timmy, the big fundamental, never asked for attention, never had to be flashy or selfish, was all about winning....for a very long time.... makes my all time 5 best players at Pforward slot, along with Jordan, Hakeem, Bird and Magic, can't think of any other 5 who could beat that...
Fernando Arboleda wasn't magic a point guard
best one ever
hakeem?....over 6 time league MVP and the NBA's all time leading scorer and 6 time champ Jabbar?
cant take anything away from jabbar but personally if you take both at their prime you cannot go wrong, i happen to love hakeem for his shot blocking and mid range jumpers and fantastic footwork and faster rebounding speed, but jabbar was fantastic too, then come to think about it in their prime chamberlain cannot be topped, it is a matter of choice and fit on a team
yes magic best pt guard ever jordan can be my 2, bird 3, tim 4, hakeem or jabbar 5
Tim was the heart and soul of the Spurs. I miss him.
Tim Duncan a true great basketball player thank you Tim 😭🏀
San Antonio misses you Tim Duncan from us Spurs fans thank you Tim
... i have deep respect for the humility of tim duncan ... he quietly retired the same year kobe bryant had a farewell tour ... that is what i admired him the most ... his humility despite all his accomplishments ... thank you timmy !!!
I miss Timmy! My favorite player all time. I will always argue he was the best big man. I’ll never forget learning the bank shot from the block move. Had a tournament in Houston. And dominated off that one move hahaha!
There will only be one Tim Duncan
When TD gave that interview with Doris and talked about his career coming to an end I started crying.
I’m so grateful I got to witness his greatness!
I'm here after he became an assistant coach !
Pop's succesor...😎
2007-2008 spurs vs suns in the playoffs game seven with less then 5 secs left spurs inbound to Duncan to shot a three pointer for the with win😬😂😬 best feeling ever
Julius Guerra coach pop was a genius when in came to drawing up plays such as timmys 3 point shot for the win!
i remember that day
I don't think that was a game 7 more like 5.
He's basically that simple effective guy. You know what he will do but he still scores on you
I'm not even a Spurs fan but I miss Timmy 😢
Thanks Tim Duncan for being a true NBA Superstar for your Spurs Team on n off the court
legends never die 👁
I'm watching this from all the way in the United States Virgin Islands ! ! !
My all time favorite player, sad that he's gone
K Rob same here we still miss him
My all time favourite NBA player 🖤
" We'll do it this time"
I was like " HE GUARANTEED IT!!"
EliTheRealist1 It was so crazy when he said that!!! I was like wtf did Timmy just say!!! I almost passed out cause he’s not like that 😂
Yea he never ever talked like that but this was personal.
He also promised Bill Russell that he would win another title for him. This interview between him and Bill took place after he had his 4th title. "He not only makes guarantees! But he keeps promises as well! That is MJ and 🐐 like.💯✌️
I’m a heat fan, but it is impossible to not have respect for Tim Duncan. Best PF ever
Shoot man, thank you. I got teary eyed throughout this. Homage to Duncan of course but even more a tribute to this game we all love. So well done.
Thank you TD!!! I will definitively miss your presence on the basketball court. 😢😥
Spurs basketball forever
I'm so happy I was able to watch his whole career thank you Mr Duncan I have always been a spurs fan and you were the missing piece to 5 champions...again thank you...
Gets you right in them feels. Timmy "The Big Fundamental", I miss him already.

Noe Salazar let #2 tell it it is
One of the best nba player ever i watched..
Duncan was a monster.
thank you tim, for everything
the very last old school big men in the game before he retired. Mr fundamental, his post moves were da bomb
Edmund Choy dirk?
@@spazzodamenace6219 dirk is no traditional/old school big
Appreciate Embiid, Ayton, Towns, etc. There will be a resurgence, but now everyone wants to shoot.
Best PF of all time, and by far.
Thank you timmy. Sa will forever be in your heart. We love you..
ONE OF MY FAVORITE TOP 5 PLAYERS EVER....
An amazing player and an amazing example of winning, a good teammate, and class.

The reason basketball means anything to me is because of this guy right here. A true legend. In a time where loyalty means nothing to fans or players the reason I stay a Spurs fan is because Duncan never wavered.
Grew up watching Kobe which meant I grew up watching Duncan. Greatness personified. The Big Fundamental. Thanks for the memories.

Tim and kawhi are very simillar when it comes to basketball they are so quite and very humble.i appreciate these guys.
Top 7 all time in my opinion. Absolutely fantastic player and I’d take him on any team I watch any day of the week.
dang Tim...not the same without you! Spurs life misses you tremendously! Like Pop said, No Tim = No Rings
the greatest PF
One of the best PF/C to play the game. Loved watching him and Robinson control the paint and loved watching “The Beautiful Game” nothing like Spurs Basketball #GSG #TD21

Spurs 👑 the legendary Tim respected Duncan I can’t wait to see the trophies in San Antonio arena
This video is a work of art. Thank you.
This video was 5 years ago but still gives me goosebumps.. seeing how beautiful the Spurs play on 2014 NBA finals
I put that 2014 Spurs team up against any team in NBA history even my Dr. J-83 Sixers, and come out victorious every time.
RIP Stu.
Cried. Tim gave us everything. Absolutely played his heart out and brought so much to sa. Put Sa on the map. God bless you Timothy Duncan. Im 20 i loved ya. My dad did 2
Best pure post scorer 🗣❗️
His skill is insane oh my god
Greatest PF if all time
That bank shot is so satisfying. Its an absolute beauty.
