Tim Duncan - Postup Powerhouse (Late Career Highlights)

Tim Duncan is the greatest power forward of all-time. While that is unquestionably true, that doesn’t quite do him justice. Obviously Tim is a transcendent talent, because what else can you call a player who has won a championship in three different decades? He’s a 5x NBA champion, 3x Finals MVP, 2x NBA MVP, 15x All-Star (All-Star MVP in 2000), 14th on the all-time scoring list, 6th on the all-time playoff scoring list, the all-time leader in career double-doubles, 10x All-NBA First Team (3x Second Team, 2x Third Teamer), as well as being THE San Antonio Spur. He’s got myriad more awards and achievements, but what should be highlighted is the consistency and excellence he has brought to the league. In his 19 year career, he has NEVER missed the playoffs. Also important to note is that since 2000, the Spurs have won at least 50 games every year. That’s absolute insanity considering the lockout 2011-12 campaign only had 66 games.
As I was saying before, to say that Duncan is the greatest power forward of all-time understates his greatness. Wherever you rank him in your all-time list, his unparalleled excellence over the course of nearly 2 decades in the league (and four great years in college) warrants at least a conversation into the top 5. I’m not trying to tell you where he belongs, but to simply pigeonhole him as a power forward does not do Duncan justice. The clips shown here are obviously at the tail end of Timmy's career. I wish I could do more, and I might be able to down the road, but because of formatting issues, and overall quality (video quality, not ability), I'm not really able to do any of his early stuff (at least in this video). Obviously this isn't the only source of Duncan content, so I strongly encourage you to seek out some prime Timmy clips. MOREOVER, this video is about ONE SPOT. This video is meant to showcase how he ate the league alive from one spot, with basically one move and a few counters. Duncan does have a left hand, but it isn't showcased very much in this video because I CHOSE to do the left block (when you're talking about it from a post entry).
They didn’t call Timmy "the Big Fundamental” for nothing. He’s got everything you could ever want in a basketball player, to the point where if you sat down and watched any game of his, there is a strong chance your basketball IQ would benefit greatly. His footwork is flawless, his jumper wasn’t the prettiest, but by god did he make it work. He could bury you in the post, turn over either shoulder, have you flying by with a shot or pass fake, or in some cases, just moving you with his eyes. Tim could trick you every which way, and if you somehow managed to stay down, he’d just move onto to his counter (and sometimes the counter to his counter’s counter). If that wasn’t enough, he used his strength or his quickness, or just WILL a shot in (that 3 pointer against Phoenix in the playoffs in 2008 comes to mind). That bank shot won San Antonio at least a hundred games by itself. His post game, along with Hakeem and McHale, are what I study when I need to teach a move. His preparation was perfect and the greatest part about Tim wasn’t how much he won, but how hard he continued to work despite the accolades. As Pop said after Duncan announced his retirement: “he’s the same person as far as his values as the day he came in.” Thanks for everything, Tim.

[@JoshCConnor]

Everyone talks about Duncan's skills but not his physical attributes that clearly give him the edge and ability to pull this off. First and foremost are the size of his hands. You can clearly see how he grips the ball and does whatever he wants with it without turning it over. Just like Michael Jordan, Shaq, Wilt, Pippen, Kawhi, and Dr J. If you're hands are smaller you know what I'm speaking of. Secondly the length of his arms and reach make him seem bigger and taller than he actually is. His basketball IQ is top 5 but with those arms it boosts his capabilities by tenfold. His ability to block shots, rebound, score without jumping, and look 7'0 when his a questionable 6'10" is amazing. Lastly and most importantly contributing to the success of his post game is his strength and in particular his stong lower base. His strength is very very underrated. Just look at how he handles bigger dudes like Shaq, Yao, Marc Gasol, DeMarcus Cousins...it's incredible.

[@jordifresh11]

Tim Duncan is the embodiment of the quote ‘don’t fear the man who knows a 1000 skills fear the man who’s practices one soul a thousand times’. Nothing flashy about him but consistency is what he had and that was dangerous beyond words.

[@fordawin7811]

No one won like it was nothing more than Tim Duncan just showed up night in and out

[@robhughes8198]

I’ve hated the Spurs for so long... with the NBA getting as dumb as it is, I can’t help noticing how much I appreciate them now.

[@bruh-sc6le]

Noyce Gaming they were boring for a long time but 2010 changed that with the new ball movement and the pass first offense. it used to be dump the ball to big fella down low and let him go to work.

[@holidayarmadillo8653]

I’m a laker fan and a Kobe guy till I die…but I miss the wars this guy used to give us and the the way we knew we had to bring it against the Spurs. Such an incredible all-time talent and player Timmy was. They don’t make ‘em like him or Kobe anymore.

[@karimlazaar9080]

That move on Tyson Chandler tho at 10:23

[@mauroradice7845]

Absolute marvel. And this (awesome) video doesn't even begin to cover how freaking good he was on the other side of the ball. The fact that he never won a DPoY is the reason why I can't take that award seriously.

[@jameswang7242]

Tim Duncan hit Anderson with ball!

[@solderist]

Kids enjoy your favorite player while they are active. I took for granted how good tim duncan was when he is still playing so I only get to relive his greatness watching youtube videos

[@jarlborg2102]

*"The Greatest Power Forward of all time"*

[@AsianSensationist]

Tim Duncan the epitome of simple and efficient. He never tried to be flashy, but he was so fun to watch.

[@dannielgalang1674]

Duncan always used his right even in awkward situation.

[@ramm8196]

I miss Duncan big time!!!

[@moistpeanut5986]

Im the kinda guy that has watched way more Tim Duncan highlight videos than Lebron highlight videos.

[@whataguy7032]

Spin left, spin right, fake and drive, fall away, scoop, dunk, gentle kiss off the glass. He could score so many ways........I had the privilege of having season tickets for his senior year at Wake Forest. It was a blast to watch him play. The ultimate teammate.

[@tiismuna]

even with bad knees.. basic moves.. that's why He's boring to watch because it looked so easy and not flashy.. young Duncan is more fun to watch.. simply Legendary!!!

[@xXViiCTiiMiizzEDxX]

tiismuna idk why people think hes boring, maybe because the slow pace? To me its just like a giant kobe; boring would be if he missed all his shots but i think that kind of footwork and skill is flashy as fuck

[@tiismuna]

MagicMikeAKAMdot it is boring.. but as a basketball fan I appreciate his skills.. he is not like Kobe.. he is MJ of the PFs.. fundamentally sound..

[@raheemjones8335]

The greatest Spur ever the greatest power forward ever hands down one of the best top ten players to ever play the game before you talk look at his accolades accomplishments and the generations he played in and the teams he played against he is very underrated and this is coming from a Lakers fan

[@johndoughnut9350]

He was stronger than people realize.

[@lowmoon939]

Anyone else hear Timmy yell "Too Easy" at 6:17 after taking valacunius to school lmao!!

[@minjuice2269]

Lorenzo Luna Timmy isn't really the type of player that talks trash, but he doesn't even need that, since his game does the talking for him.

[@JAHDCypha]

I think the most underrated part of duncans game was his ability to completely seal off his defender and create ez passing angles as a result

[@dpascal95]

IronLyanZion facts. He was a great passer as well but he created easy passes to him in that left block

[@jonpoon3896]

One thing common with all great post players: patience
