This video described the Finals series as anticlimactic and it was... in hindsight. But at the time analysts weren't so sure. As just an example, Bill Simmons predicted the Nets would beat the Spurs, citing Jason Kidd's more talented supporting cast. In Simmons' eyes, Duncan's best option was... Malik Rose.

For you youngsters, the pace was a lot slower back then, and the Spurs being the slowest of the teams back then too, so you have to adjust for inflation, and convert to "Points Per 75 Possessions", or per 100 possessions etc, to get an idea what the scoring numbers actually mean in comparison to today's stars. Rebounding however is less effected, and less shots coming from the outside meant shorter bounces off the rim, and more opportunities for bigs to board, mostly cancelling out the effect of less possessions.

Is David Robinson that bigger than Tim Duncan?

[@barbaramathews1740]

You got to be kidding, Anthony Davis is nowhere near Tim Duncan's status!!!!!

[@TheH3dgie]

Without Duncan, this team maybe wins 20 games...MAYBE. This is one of the greatest all time play off runs by a guy without another single all star team mate. I can only recall Hakeem in 94 and Dirk in '12 doing the same - and both of those runs are considered all time great.

11 dirk

[@patrickgarcia1588]

I like the stats you put up…. but you just copied everything from the DVD commentary and all the things that they said into this video which is kind of lazy

[@blakespadaro2313]

03 Spurs beat the 3 time champion lakers with Shaq and Kobe and beat a 60 win mavs team with Dirk Nash and Finley . Impressive

[@razkable]

dirk got hurt...so..no

I love how the east was weak, but it took 7 games to beat the pistons in the finals

[@razkable]

the east was better post 2003...2004 pacers pistons and nets were all good teams who could legit defeat easily now the bottom teams out west like the nuggets rockets and grizzlies who all somehow made the playoffs in a usually stacked west and those east teams it felt like could finally compete if they were in the west finally vs lesser but still good west teams like the mavs and kings that year who got worse from the year before and a great west team that used to be more in the middle in the unproven t wolves..sure the spurs still looked a little better than the east competition but not by much that year and la looked very vulnerable and people said they would lose to the pacers t wolves and spurs all season...1999-2003 the east sucked....for 5 years....it felt like 1 team could be a top 6 seed out west playing that competition nightly and usually everyone else was not close and maybe if lucky make a 5th seed out west...hell the heat in 2004 could of been a top 6 seed out west and legit go 7 games with a past great team like the mavs despite a loaded roster it felt like and beat the bottom west teams too...that heat team had no bench

spurs lost in 2001 western conference finals not second round

[@michaelborden363]

This goon neglects to point out that Dirk got hurt in game 2 of the WCF after they had won game 1. Just sayin', let's be honest here. This guy......mighta had a big impact on he entire series......maybe. And Dirk never gets hurt, he's played so many games consistently. In essence , the Spurs may have still won that series, but it wouldn't have been easy.

[@takkipusa6910]

I agree with your assessment. Dirk being injured was one of the big reason why my Spurs won the series. With Dirk in the series would have been much intense. I'd still pick my Spurs winning like you said.

[@torpedospurs]

Nah, Spurs were better than the Mavs that year. Mavs only won Game 1 because they turned it into a FT shooting contest. Dirk got hurt in Game 3 late in the 4th quarter when Spurs were up double digits.

[@ethangatrell2082]

Dirk was out for almost the entire Mavs series... he was gone after game 2, that’s the only caveat in that run

[@eminesahin2420]

wrong.he was gone after game three.

[@razkable]

rick fox was out

[@razkable]

dikembe missing the finals and being hurt in the few minutes he played was a huge loss too

[@lioninthesun]

As good as duncan was, the lakers beat themselves and that’s a fact. Shaq got fat and kobe became resentful and didn’t set him up like he did in the threepeat. Duncan was all time great but they would have never beat them if shaq and kobe were in sync and even so they almost win if horrys shot goes in game 5

[@randomperson2540]

Wants Shaq injured in that series or the series before

[@mikeanaya7061]

The Lakers had absolutely nobody to guard Duncan. Horry wasn’t the man to put on Duncan and bully him up. This is why the Lakers giving away Elden Campbell hurt them in the long run. Campbell could have matched his size and played him physical. Even had the Lakers traded Campbell for anything better than JR Reid I believe the Lakers could have won that series.

[@Spin24Doctor]

Kobe and Shaq scored 64 out of team’s 99 points in one game! Talk a about being top heavy! 😂

[@pmgink8024]

2003 the worst and most boring NBA season ever come on you cant be serious im being prank right you think this is top 10 season or team please

[@pmgink8024]

They shouldve swept nets

[@marlowstanfield6815]

Kobe got his revenge in 04 and 08. Kobe owned Duncan in the playoffs

[@marlowstanfield6815]

@J B YMCA players? So Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker, David Robinson, Bruce Bowen, Stephen Jackson etc are YMCA players? I named at least 3 hallafamers just now. Duncan had games where he scored 15 points during this 2003 playoff run and the Spurs still won, Duncan wouldn't be able to score only 15 points and still win without a good team around him.

[@marlowstanfield6815]

@J B Don't blame the fans for your personal hate for Kobe. An what clown argument? Duncan had several games during that playoff run where he scored less than 20 points and the Spurs still won, you ain't winning like that with a bum team dummy. Bottom line is Kobe owned Duncan in the playoffs, Kobe lead the Lakers in scoring all 4 times the Lakers beat the Spurs in the playoffs. Fact! Kobe and Duncan meet in the playoffs Kobe ends Duncans season 4 out of 6 times, FACTS!

[@marlowstanfield6815]

@J B A top 3 player as his side kick, who Gasol? When was Gasol a top 3 player? Stop lying! Duncan had a game during that playoff run where scored only 11 points, 11 POINTS AND THE SPURS WON! But he had no help, htf is that possible? Yes Kobe had Shaq but Kobe was the best player on the Lakers all 4 times the Lakers beat the Spurs. Like I said when Kobe met Duncan in the playoffs 4 out of 6 times Kobe ends Timmy's season. FACTS!
