Timmy - 2014-15 All NBA Third Team!

[Doctor J]

Congratulations to Tim Duncan on being selected All NBA Third Team - his 15th!!! :toast

He received 6 First Team votes!

Crazy that Pau got 2nd team over him IMO

Crazy that Pau got 2nd team over him IMO

Pau had better counting stats but much less impact to winning than Timmy.

[SpursFan86]

1st Team: Curry, Harden, LeBron, Davis, Marc
2nd Team: Paul, Westbrook, Aldridge, Pau, Cousins
3rd Team: Irving, Thompson, Griffin, Duncan, DeAndre

Pau being 2nd team is an absolute joke. Kawhi should've had that spot. If they're going to snub Kawhi, then at least put Griffin or Duncan 2nd team and move Pau to 3rd team.

Pau was basically Al Jefferson this year. Borderline 20/10 guy who played shitty defense. I was expecting him to get selected, but 2nd team is ridiculous. How he made it in over Kawhi is beyond me (not really, I know exactly why - media is infatuated with box score stats).

[Uriel]

Pau Gasol, Klay Thompson, and DeAndre Jordan all make the All-NBA team while Kawhi does not.

What a joke. :lol

[024]

At least Duncan got to add another all-defense and all-NBA selection to his list of accomplishments.

Not even one token Hawk. No wonder Bud got the coaching award.

15 times each - All-NBA, All-Defensive, All Star selection... an amazing accomplishment!

Just more fuel for Kawhi to work on his offensive game. He was the last one off the list:

In fact Kawhi got more votes (155) than Thompson or Irving (122 and 112 respectively) but the forward slots were already filled.

The legend grows

[Malik Hairston]

Pau Gasol and Jordan making all-NBA is pathetic, tbh:lol

Clippers have 2 all-NBA 1st team defenders, yet they were the 16th ranked defense in the NBA..they have 3 all-NBA players, yet they couldn't even get past the 2nd round against a weak Rockets team..throw in the most overrated coach in the NBA, and you have maybe the most overhyped team I have ever seen..

[quentin_compson]

Tim just edged out Kawhi. :stirpot:

[Sean Cagney]

The legend grows

Every single day......

He's a classic and arguably the best big in basketball. That said, the bigs in basketball today are mostly a joke. Ol' David Robinson would be licking his chops if he was coming into the league now in his 20s. He'd feast on all these slow and unskilled bigs.

[Gervin44Silas13]

UTTER BULLSHIT
Tim should have been on the 1st Team he carried the Spurs all fucken year



1st Team: Curry, Harden, LeBron, Davis, Marc
2nd Team: Paul, Westbrook, Aldridge, Pau, Cousins
3rd Team: Irving, Thompson, Griffin, Duncan, DeAndre

[spurraider21]

His 15 All-NBA selections now has him tied with Kareem and Kobe for most selections in NBA History.

His 15 All-Defensive selections are an NBA record held by Duncan and Duncan alone.

:toast

[Richie]

his 15 All-NBA and All-Defense selections have all come in the same year too

[timtonymanu]

:lol DeAndre Jordan, most overrated player right now, tbh.

[TXstbobcat]

Congrats Timmy!!!!!!:flag:

[mkurts]

Pau Gasol? Hahahaha

[DMC]

Why do they not have 4th and 5th teams? Would Parker make 10th team all nba?

[DMC]

That's basically not possible.
