Had this game on tape, Duncan's playoff debut. Such a masterpiece. Also, the last run of The Admiral as a premier go-to guy in the league. Thank you for the upload.
San Antonio was playing 3 forwards/center in the starting 5. Will Perdue 6'11 Tim Duncan 6'11 and David Robson 7'1 thats what you call big boy basketball not this small ball kiddy shit today
Fitting this was posted on TD21's birthday (a happiest and blessed 48th)! And what a Playoff debut for a rookie. If 1997 Draft was called the "Duncan Draft", 1997-98 was set as a phenomenal season for a neophyte -- All-Star, swept ROTM honors, All-Defense Second Team, and All-NBA First Team (first since Larry Bird in 1980).
Keep in mind this was a rookie just out of college going off on an entire team full of all stars and pros, and you can see why my Spurs we're able to win thier first of many titles the very next season.
Man I’m loving your channel.. love getting a new video after a long day at work. My wife is Colombian n she is just baffled by me watching 30 yr old games every night 😂
A huge fourth quarter got the Spurs a 102-96 win. After the Suns evened the series, the Spurs went home and finished it off in 4 games. The teams have met 10 times in the playoffs with the Suns winning in 1992, 1993, 2000 and 2010 and Spurs winning in 1996, 1998, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2008. None of these playoff series reached the deciding Game 5 or Game 7 and the Suns swept the Spurs in 1992 and 2010. During Tim Duncan's career the Spurs won titles in 1999, 2003, 2005, 2007 and 2014 and never missed the playoffs during his 19 season career from 1997-2016.
Antonio McNugget (currently McRocket) was the original Stoudemire, except he could shoot the 18 footer consistently. Never mentioned as one of the better power forwards in the NBA, historically. I imagine it’s because, poor guy, just had a lot of trouble with injuries.
did someone say McDyess?? McDyess to McCloud, Robinson on Robinson. Cliff the spliff!! Papabitch had hair.. KJ was still the man, Jkidd hair wasn't blonde yet... man 1998 was so great!! Great suns year!! McDyess had an insane year with us then left us... :(
How Is that blue and orange ball court color's and logos still not being used today? at Phoenix? Damm, so exciting, they had a loaded team. But my Spurs had the best player in the league during that time next to Jordan's last year with the bull's of course.
@@oronasundial of course a Spurs fan would think that the Phoenix Suns colors are blue and orange, not purple and orange… Just like San Antonio has navy blue and silver… San Antonio is a piece of shit team and the rigged NBA help you win way too much… Thanks, Tim Donaghy
The night Tim Duncan gave the NBA a taste of what was to come for the next 18 years
Suns had insane depth at PG back then with Kidd, Nash, and KJ on the same roster.

“Duncan is everywhere!”
Avery Johnson was screaming like crazy 😂
NBC and TNT would be a perfect broadcast package for the nba

Rookie Duncan played like a seasoned veteran

Duncan/Robinson/Purdue frontline has to be the biggest in history. Timmy was basically playing SF.😮
Imagine if they hadn’t run off Dennis Rodman. Rodman, Robinson and Duncan holy cow..
Hey these have been great please keep posting these it's really makes my day reliving the past
👍 hopefully more to come!

Remember watching this game as a kid
thanks alot really wont 2 see this era!
👍
WOW Spurs play 3 centers !
And they finally put some big talent around David Robinson after decade plus of playing with over the hill superstars.
He had a good enough team to win with in 94&95 he just got outplayed by Hakeem in 95 and Malone in 94
Got their ass kicked by Utah the very next round
@@TheSands83they did. But they got the last laugh with 5 championships to 0
And Robinson got 2
Malone and Stockton 0
R.I.P ROBINSON #30
Is that Kevin Harlan on the mike??
When big men were big men...
Why is this so clear??
Kevin Harloom is out of his mind 😂😂😂😂

Stoudemire could knock it down too.consistently
Robinson on Robinson.
Robinson blocks Robinson!
Robinson is fouled by Robinson.
Cannot put my finger on commentators' names. Who are they?
Kevin Harlan and Quinn Buckner
@@MDBBall Thanks. Quinn Buckner is a name I haven't heard in a decade!
Suns lineup style too soon , far as the same lineups.
