What a savage series. Some people say Ginobili should have been the MVP, but Duncan matched his stats going against on the greatest defenses ever, and one of the greatest defensive front duos. Tim Duncan. Pure alpha.

Honestly can say GREATEST PLAYER I’ve ever seen at his POSITION; does EVERYTHING a coach / teammate needs depending on the situation !! Has many “Go To” moves that can vary based on tempo & game feel ….and don’t forget his BALL HANDLINGN& DEFENSIVE nightmares as a matchup against anybody 😏

Just so you know kids, GoaTD was playing two bad ankles he sprained badly during the season including a recent one in round 2 against the deceased Supersonics. And don't let his FG% mislead you, he got a lot of offensive rebounds off of his misses and he was almost always double teamed by arguably one of the best defensive frontline duos of all time

Just check out how much elevation Duncan had on all his moves in the video. Detroit could probably have won if they had force-fed Sheed on offense because Duncan couldn't contest his jump shot at all. But Sheed wasn't about that kind of responsibility.

@J B As a Hispanic Belgian American I was rooting for Ginobili but in the end the challenge that Duncan had to overcome was much greater and there's no denying that his offensive rebounds and overall presence in the paint made it possible for the Spurs to win the championship that year.

@@losswutang5456 First 4 games were blowouts, after that Tim shot 45%. Detroit had the best defense in the league and not only that, with McDyess and the Wallaces the best rim protectors by far. Their weakness was on the 2 spot, something that Ginobili with all his experience but less talent exploited, an assignment that Kobe failed at in the previous finals because of the brewing feud with Shaq. Duncan also grabbed plenty offensive rebounds and just by himself nearly matched the total number of rebounds by both Wallaces.

nba decided that scoring is more important for tv ratings purposes and viewership. you cant really blame them for it even though its kind of sad.
