this is probably Luva as well.
Duncan led the Spurs in scoring that entire regular season and was their leading scorer in the playoffsSpurs fans are quick to claim Kobe did with Shaq. Using that logic, I would say Duncan did the same in 2007. Discuss

timmay coat riding legit bigs to rings, compare to the seasons where there wasnt a legit 7ft next to him he didnt do
most overrated player on defense even though anchoring whatever you wanna call it, dude never defends the other teams elite big cause he has to save his 6fouls....only defends them during stretches of the game like closing it...
haha I can't tell if this is a joke or not? Pretty much every sports writer said after Tony won the MVP they loved how cool Duncan was letting his friend enjoying it knowing he was clearly the MVP of that series. Pretty much anyone who watched those playoffs knew TP got it was because he scored a lot due to a favorable match up at PG. This is absurd to say he coat tailed his way to it.
Game 1 - 24pts, 13 reb, 5 blocks
Game 2 - 23 pts, 9 reb, 8 assists (a near triple double)
Game 3 - 14 pts, 9 reb, 3 assits, 2 blocks, 1 steal
Game 4 - 12 pts, 15 reb, 2 blocks, 2 steals, 3 assits
LOL COATTAILED!
if you wanna talk about coat tailing how about Pau Gasol getting robbed of the Finals MVP in 2009. TRUE ING STORY
So Duncan took the backseat while Parker led the team. Point proven /thread
12 and 14pts is totally coattailing it
The Cavs were shorthanded at PG. Larry Hughes was injured. His backup was the rookie Boobie Gibson, who wasn't a match for TP.
Typical Kirby stan, only valuing points.... 12/15/2/2/3 in a series clinching game isn't coattailing, it's having a great all-around game, tbh...
boobie got robbed of the fmvp 07
Shaq knew he was washed up and if Tim got a fourth finals MVP it would cement the Big Fundamental's place in history over the Big Traveling Offensive Fouler, so Shaq sold his soul to Stern. In exchange for the fix being in to give the MVP to anyone but Tim Shaq d himself to anyone and everyone that Stern wished. First to Phoenix as a desperate attempt to keep the Spurs from getting anywhere in the playoffs the next year. Then to Cleveland in the hopes that they could get the league's goldenboy back to the finals. And finally to Boston because, well by that point I'm pretty sure he was just trying to with Shaq.
lol allowing Chauncey Billups to win a Finals MVP.
22 and 12 on 52% in 20 games for the playoffs that year..
Yeah Tim had nothing to do with that Chip..
duncan might not be the best player on 07' spurs but it's not like someone else who has been a coattail rider his entire career imho.
Duncan was the best player on the Spurs though. Led the team in the post-season in points, rebounds, blocks, PER, win shares. Parker scored more in the Finals but that doesn't mean he was the best player. It says more about how ty the Cavs were at the guard positions.
Lol ignoring the first two games and other stats besides points.12 and 14pts is totally coattailing it
Not BUMP imho...
The 07 Finals was won by containing Lebron with Bowen on the perimeter and Duncan in the paint. When Lebron couldn't drive into the paint, he was forced to take jump shots (which he was terrible at back then). Once Lebron was contained, there was no doubt Spurs would win (Parker's mismatch notwithstanding) as Spurs had too much firepower for the rest of the Cavs. Spurs went OFFENSIVELY with the mismatch - Parker vs the hobbled Eric Snow and rookie Daniel Gibson but the series was won defensively (mainly Bowen and Duncan).
Kobe 2009 NBA Finals: 32.4/5.6/7.4/1.4/1.4
Highest PPG for a Finals MVP since '06 Wade
Highest APG for a Finals MVP since '91 MJ
Highest BPG for a Finals MVP since '05 Duncan
so you're essentially claiming that tony parker = shaq. ok.
I must know who those girls are... your friends? Yummmy ass
lol calling out duncan for taking a backseat
while kobe does the same they start calling him kobe johnson...
faker ots should just stfu
Kobe's finals MVP in 2009 was legit. He completely dominated that series. However I think the Finals MVP should have gone to Pau/Bynum. Pau for ting all over KG, and Bynum for taking out Perkins.
