Duncan makes all NBA 1st team

Anyone see that bullshit on ESPN just now? They basically just threw a fit that Duncan got 1st team over Gasol, and did some "sports science" shit to "prove" it. . .even though all they did was just talk about the angle of Gasol's jumpshot and his reach.

:lmao

That's great for Duncan, but I thought Parker should have made first team as well.

I love Timmy

Amazing, absolutely amazing. 37 years young, in a way this makes up for his DPOY snub. All NBA Team's usually are picked accurately and carry weight! This is a hell of an accomplishment.

Congrats to Timmy and Tony.

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".

Amazing TD. And congrats to TP, too. :tu

Our godfather just owned 3 generations. :smokin
Grats on our Frenchie Tony P too :tu

But other than that, we have to give the lol's

:lol choosing Cp3>Parker
:lol Kobe making 1st
:lol Announcers who say Gasol/Howard is the best center in the league then Timmy shits on both of em

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.

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.

There is justice for Timmy.

Tony is better than CP. Results speak.

Tim's list of accolades is so long you just about need a whole day to comprehend it.

Congrats TD! :tu

Parker deserved the first team nod over CP3.
