Tell me though, how is that 360 spin move Tim put on Howard for the and-1 not fast-twitch athleticism?
The problem is the Sports Center Junkies and many scribes confuse quickness and especially explosive jumping with athleticism, when in fact, it is only a very small part.
The facts are, you don't excell in sport, especially not as one of the best players in the World at a particular sport, without being one of the Worlds most gifted athletes.
Not only is Tim proven to be one of the World's most gifted basketball athletes, before Tim was a basketball player, he was a World Class Swimmer for his age bracket.
I acknowledge, Tim is one of the most celebrial athletes who have ever played a professional sport. He thinks, then he delivers with precision and great athletic skills. Duncan is athleteticism at it greatest form.
