Tim duncan= 🐐

[@Luis-mm3ki]

Duncan GOAT

[@CesarSabaterYouTube]

One of the reason I became a Spurs fan in high school. Humble beginning #gospursgo

[@sm3dium]

First here TD will forever be the GOAT

[@ArcadianGenesis]

He's literally the best franchise player of all time. If you could choose ANY player to start a franchise, there would be no better choice than Timmy. Not even Jordan, because he needs to be paired with a superstar forward like Pippen. Maybe Kareem, but he's not as loyal as Tim and would be more likely to leave and sign with a different team.

I remember watching this years ago.

[@terencethomas7409]

All this time I didn't realize Tim isn't from the states he's VI , one of greatest international players ever

[@rayzrealm]

*I’m glad he’s was in touch with his roots.*

[@OweNoManAnything]

The Big Fundamental 💪

[@Elevatedgod]

Amazing story. To be terrible at the game and play just for fun. Then to become the greatest power forward of all time. Wow.

[@sc_parkeryang6297]

[@joseanthompson9069]

So are they going to ignore the 8 inch growth spurt he had at 17 ?

[@shemdickson7235]

[@yipingxie6110]

I thought TD stopped swimming in the sea because he’s afraid of the sharks

[@Whos-That-Guy]

Those are some short baggy pants Timmy is wearing.
