I'd agree that Duncan's contributions to the Spurs' Finals sweep were fairly underrated. I understand why Parker won the MVP award, but I would have voted for Duncan.
Duncan should win MVP every year and win finals MVP every time the Spurs are there.
We all ing know that. Tim Duncan knows it. Tony Parker knows it.
That said, Parker did exactly what everyone's been riding him for in virtually every big game or series in his career until this year. The Spurs may not win without Duncan, but they wouldn't have won this year without Parker. He earned that trophy. Congrats to him.
Duncan got us here Tony went through the door first.
Basically Tony led the team in scoring shot a high percantage the series was a breeze so they gave it to him. Tim needed a monster offensive game in game 4 to have a good shot at it and he did not play well so Tony deserved it by a little bit over him. In a sweep it really means very little. If this series had gone 6 or 7 it would have been Duncan because he would have needed to do more for the Spurs to win.
