One of them for sure is Game 6 in 2013. I know 6 is very painful but watching him go all out and almost win it for us at that age? That man was the definition of the heart of a champion.
I'm sure there's a similar thread to this already, can't remember tbh.
But I'm sitting here recollecting all the memories since 1997, and there's so many great ones. What are y'all's favorites? 2014 is mine, with Timmy holding his hands in the air. And the "Not bad for a bunch of old guys" quote during the locker room celebration. Greatest championship ever.
What say you?

2014 Game 6 against OKC, 38 year old Duncan sending home Dursoft and Westbrook.

i love love love love the way he left. looking back now his last game was so ing perfect.
I LOVE YOU TIM
There isn't a single memory. The les obviously and the big wins. For some reason this moment will stand out, even though in the long run it wouldn't matter.
Right on.
On the court? The 3 vs the Suns ...
Off the court? Tim calling his le shot at end of the game in the WCF when they clinched the rematch vs. the Heat ... "We have four more [games] to win,” the Spurs' big man told TNT's David Aldridge. “We’ll do it this time.”![]()
Sun's 3 and 14 game 6 OKC and promising they'll win it this time![]()
" we're gonna do it this time"
See? I became a Spurs fan in '07 because of Tony Parker, but you can see in my avatar Timmy won over me very early on. That one has to be the greatest meaningless shot ever!Man, he was clutch.
I remember also one time in '09 we lost a game in overtime because Matt Bonner couldn't make the winning shot and then Timmy said in the post-conference it was his fault for letting the team down. What a uva an athlete.
I'm more of a lurker here, but I had to respond to this post with a personal favorite memory of when I met Tim. I was working at Wherehouse music here in SA, and right before we were to close for the night, I was windexing the tall glass doors, getting the finger/hand smudges off them, when up comes Tim Duncan with a friend, and he sees what I'm doing, so he reaches as high as he can, and opens the door leaving a full hand print, I'd need a ladder to clean that LOL, and I tell him "good one" he turns around and flashes a big smile at me.
Duncan laughing at dwert, though that third quarter in Game 7 in 2005 and that shot over Westchimp and Abaka were legendary too. Really can't go wrong with any of them.
A lot of memories but nothing sweeter than 5. The whole season was one long redemption train ride that kept gaining speed the closer we got to the championship.
Forgive me for butchering his quote but when he said "we'll get it done this time" you believed it. You knew. And they delivered.
At 2:45 mark, this has been and will always be my favorite TD move. I remember this game like it was yesterday.![]()
Him hugging his kids after 5, tbh
Yea that's right up there too. What a boss.
Legendary.![]()
Funny thing his carrer top 10 is so lame compared to Shaq, Hakeem or David. But the showtime.
