Technically, it's 15 years apart for both of them (i.e. 1997-98 + 15 = 2012-13), but you're right. Wow.

A lot of hating here on Chris Paul. He has carried that Clippers team all season, without him they could well be a lottery team. Griffin getting All NBA is much more of a joke.
Paul, Kobe and Parker all had legitimate cases for 1st Team. Anyone surprised it was Parker who got missed out hasn't been paying much attention to how these things work.
After being snubbed in the DPOY and all defense voting (should have been first team), this is a welcomed surprise.

-Its an odd year (99,03,05,07)
-We beat Lakers in Playoffs (every time we have, Spurs have gone on to win Championship)
-Things going our way (injuries to other teams superstars)
-Defense playing really well
-Overcoming Adversity: THIS YEAR (GS Series)
PREVIOUS CHAMPIONSHIP YEARS (Memorial Day Miracle, Coming back 13 down Against Mavs game 6 in 03, Robert Horry Shot Game 5 in 05 vs Pistons)

I don't know why, but I'd forgotten that they beat the Lakers back in '95. I guess it's because I forgot they were still a playoff team in the post-Showtime, pre-Shaq/Kobe years. :lol
Or maybe it's because I've blocked as much as possible out of my mind from that season after undergoing severe emotional trauma during the next playoff series. :depressed

TP on the 2nd team is right. For those griping about CP3, Tony was 4th in voting at guard. He was actually closer to 5th than 3rd.
Only gripe I have is Dwight Howard, but it was not even close for the 3rd center spot.

Duncan's All NBA First Team (ANFT) selection was the 10th time he has been given that honor. He is second (jointly with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) only behind Karl Malone and Kobe Bryant (11 times each). And all three with the same or more ANFT selections have/had played more seasons than him at this point of time.
Truly a remarkable achievement.
Parker made the ANST selection for the second time and adds to his solitary ANTT selection.

Timmy deserved to be on the All NBA Defense 1st Team more than this imo, and more votes for DPOY (though I didn't expect he should win it). This is like a makeup, but that's fine. Still a huge honor since these awards aren't just handed to bigs the way they're handed to high scoring SGs with terrible defense.

I think the stats are very clear that he is the best big in the game - for the voters the points, rebounds, blocks, field goal % in limited minutes is quantifiable. With defense it's a lot harder. Some years they look at rebounds, some years they look at blocks. This year they looked at team defense (TD had more rebounds and blocks than MG) - the reason why so many MEM players got on all-defensive teams too.

So weird that they decided to change their thinking now all the sudden. I think Marc Gasol has been great this year, but Timmy has been better defensively imo. It's really showing in this series. The terrible offensive displays the Grizzlies put on when Duncan is in the game, and how everything opens up for them when he's on the bench is a real glaring indicator how massive an impact Duncan makes on the defensive end. Especially against teams with great low post scoring like Memphis where Duncan can impact the game the most.

Duncan’s 14th All-NBA Team selection ranks tied for second all-time in NBA history with Karl Malone and Shaquille O’Neal. Ahead of him are Kareem Adbul-Jabbar and Kobe Bryant with 15 All-NBA selections.
The First Team honor is Duncan’s 10th of his career, becoming just the ninth player in NBA history with 10-or-more selections. He joins Kobe Bryant (11), Karl Malone (11), Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (10), Elgin Baylor (10), Bob Cousy (10), Michael Jordan (10), Bob Pettit (10) and Jerry West (10),
Duncan becomes the oldest player selected on the All-NBA First Team since Abdul-Jabbar (38-years-old) was named to the First Team in the1985-86 season.

I have been saying for years that Parker is better than Paul. People laugh when I say it but I'm serious.......
Don't know if this has been mentioned . . .
But TD must be the only player ever named All NBA First Team in three different decades.
(Maybe Jabbar also?)
(Nope, Jabbar didn't get named to First Team All NBA till 1970.)
Congrats to Timmy and Tony. And yes, since Tony outplayed Chris when they played against each other this year, I Tony should have beat Chris.
By the way, of the first two all-NBA teams, are the two spurs and LeBron the only ones still playing?
Timmy D made the First Team in all four of the Spurs' championship runs. The last time he was First Team was in 2006-07, aka "previous title year".

So I just noticed something. How did Marc Gasol win Defensive Player of the Year....and not make the NBA All-Defensive 1st team?
That just tells you how much bullshit is typically attributed to these things. Glad to see Duncan got it though, as hes obviously deserving this year.
DPOY = press award. All D teams = coaches award.
It's happened two years in a row, too. Camby was also DPOY/second team in 2012.

Parker only played 66 games, I'm very surprised they had him on the 2nd team ahead of Harden, tbh..
I'd have Harden on the 1st team, tbh..
Up to the ASG, I would be with you, but he flatlined worse than Parker late, and Parker was injured.
Steph >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Chris Paul.

"First ballot" depends on your competition in any given year. But Manu is a lock to get in, first ballot or not, and has been since Argentina won gold in 2004.

Kareem was 39 in 1986.
I remember when Akeem got robbed that year. Akeem should have been 1st team center in 1986 not Jabbar, it was a joke. Look it up.
And remember Charles Barkley said he should flat out retire last season? What an idiot. 1st team All-NBA.
