Tim might not make the All-NBA first team

[TDfan2007]

SI writers did not put Tim Duncan on their All-NBA first team. I'm not quite sure if he'll make it this year. And if he doesn't, it will be the first time in his career. :depressed

[Kori Ellis]

Most other places still have Duncan on 1st team. It will be interesting to see what happens.

[davi78239]

so, who's on it right now? Let me guess....steve nash, shaq, wade. just to name a few of my guesses.

[Kori Ellis]

Most places I read have Shaq, Duncan, Dirk, Nash and either Wade or LeBron.

[TDfan2007]

G Steve Nash

G Allen Iverson

C Shaquille O'neal

F Dirk Nowitzki

F Kevin Garnett

[Jimcs50]

Well, he has missed almost 1/5 of the season, so perhaps he is not deserving.

No big deal...I doubt if he really cares.

"I doubt if he really cares."

An unbroken string of many yeara is note-worthy, without the ugly asterisk of "2005: injured".

If he doesn't make it, maybe it will motivate him even more in the playoffs. :)

[ImDaShitYaAll]

It will be Nash, LeBron, Dirk, Duncan, and Shaq (first team)
second team will be KG, Amare, Wade, TMac, and Iverson

[Leetonidas]

I don't even see how you can put KG up there on 1st team, but 2nd or 3rd I can see.

[MadDog73]

KG has great numbers. That's how you put him up.

Still, Tim deserves to be there. But if he doesn't make it, I'm sure another Ring (how many do KG and Dirk have?) will help ease his suffering... :D

How come when Nash or Shaq miss a few games and their teams suck in their absence people use that to show they're the Mvp or First team?, but when Tim misses some games and our team still does good, they hold that against him. KG's team lost a shitload of games with him playing, what does that say about him? I think leadership and importance to a team should count in these selections, not just stats. Just because our team isn't as reliant on Tim as we were in years past doesn't mean he is not the anchor for our team, which is only the second best team in the league record wise as of right now. It just upsets me that most of the media hardly ever mentions Tim in the MVP race and now in the NBA First team Selections, That is just FK'in ridiculous!
If he doesn't get selected, he can tell all of them were to stick their selection when hes lifting that trophy in June.

I think they also had Manu going in the 2nd team and a few other questionable decisions, but hey I think Tim is a lock for first team.

C - Shaq
F - Duncan
F - Dirk
G - LeBron
G - Nash

^^ Thats how I'd have it.

Exactly. I've heard Tim talk enough over the last few years to know that he doesn't give a shit about not making the All-NBA first team.

[TDfan2007]

But look at the kamla's predictions on nba.com

I did, that idiot put Tim on the All-NBA 3rd team and didn't even put him in the top 5 for DPOY.

[nacho estrada]

Td Sucks!

[BronxCowboy]

As long as he's on the playoff roster.

[td4mvp21]

My picks:

C - Stoudemire
F - Duncan
F - Nowitzki
G - Nash
G - McGrady

That would be a cool lineup but they are NEVER gonna leave Shaq out. :depressed

[adidas11]

Making the All NBA teams is all about stats.

Timmy hasn't had a strong year statistically, so I think it might be a long shot for him to make the 1st team. Oh well.

[ducks]

dirk is having a a career year

I hope DUNCAN IS NOT ON IT ( I think he deserves it though)
he might take that as a insult and destroy some team

[baseline bum]

The only person who could push Duncan off is KG. No way he gets the honor with the way his team fell apart this year... same reason I wouldn't give it to James. His team went to hell after the all-star break.

[boutons]

"he might take that as a insult and destroy some team"

... how about Finals MVP? I think he'd settle for that as consolation prize. :)

[Nikos]

Duncan not being on the all NBA team would be a flat out joke.
