I love Tim Duncan so much...1) He plays the game the right way. No need to be flashy with all this stupid shit, just get the points and move on. 2) His professionalism/demeanor. I don't ever remember him trash talking someone, or crying for a foul, etc..and he's always composed. 1st ballot Hall of Famer..no question.
He and Bill Russell are the ultimate team players they both didn't care about the type of numbers they put up as long as they get the most out of their teammates and win.
What's even better is that it's true he didn't talk shit, but if someone talked shit he'd do it back in the best way possible, look up kevin garnett's story on timmy.
Joshua Han On that list, I would change the three-point shot to George Gervin's finger roll. That shot gave the Iceman 4 scoring titles, the most for a guard before Jordan's era.
idk about that! finger rolls are done near the basket if you deny someone a path to the basket he can't finger roll it but if you're a shooter you can always shoot it regardless of defender all up on you or not!
Coz a lot of big men practice more DUNKS for showboating, but not Duncan. Example: DeAndre, Howard, Griffin, Cousins and a lot more. Timmy is all for fundamental basketball that's why he has 5 rings.
Yaseen Makaveli 1 problem for d cousins is his behavior, and his play always wants to be him to be the go to guys, while tim always knows how to deliver a good amount of plays and passing and defense, that is why cousins never in my top ten big men only duncan, shaq, olajuwon, kareem, wilt, malone, dennis, ben wallace and many more
You gotta respect Tim Duncan for just sharpening his fundamental basketball skills. No flashy dunks. Not all up in the media glitz. Just a real classy and respectable type of guy. Thats whats missing in the NBA these days.
No he couldnt, duncan was best at slow pace and doing his thing, if he speeds uo and tries it will break his rythm, you just have to watch duncan be duncan.
@@mephestopolis1951 trust me my guy, if duncan really wanted to go off he could. its just that the spurs are more about twam basketball while other organizations are about hero ball
Also his unselfishness allowed others to shine (Parker, Manu) and made them more dangerous as a team thanks to that… A true legend and the one reason San Antonio won 5
Agree he can do it. But because of his unselfishness play and coach pop passing system, he sticks with it. But if he is stat padding that could be possible. He's the greatest PF of all time.
When Tim Duncan retires, I'm going to be a sad puppy. There's no one in the league right now who can shoot like that. I hope Aldridge can pick up a few pointer or two from Timmy to make shots like those.
@Not so Wealthy Gamer Not really, MJ's fade was pretty different from Wilt's especially in the situations he used it in. If you want to compare someone to Wilts fadeaway it would easily be durant, you could put them side by side like Kobe and Mj and it would look the same, especially over the right shoulder falling towards the dotted line, thats the real comparison
My shot is literally based off of Tim Duncan, I’ve never been really good at swishing or clean shots or 3s but the bank is always something I love looking for
Tim Duncan's game is a mix of power and finesse. He has the post moves of Kevin McHale and Hakeem Olajuwon and the power of Moses Malone. His bank shot is virtually unstoppable.
Two year anniversary of Timmy joining the HOF! Ive had the pleasure of seeing him a few times playing against my Lakers! Only in hindsight do I appreciate his game. I just hated losing to him!!!
I kind of miss the league back in the day when many players got signature moves: Hakeem's dream shake, Dirk's one leg fade way, Kidd's kiss before shooting free throw, Mutumbo's finger shaking after blocks and of course, Timmy's unstoppable bank shot, isn't it a thing of beauty?
100% agreed. I'm not a fan of the whole underrated/overrated thing but Tim Duncan is extremely underrated. 4 Time champion(maybe even a 5 time champion), 2 MVPS, 3 Finals MVPS, 9 All NBA first teams. And hes stil chuggin along. Hes amazing, do you realize that his best teammates were: A 35-year old David Robinson, Manu Gibobili, and Tony Parker? I'd like to see LeBron or Kobe dominate and win at that level.
Marsellus Wallace Yep he seriously is. He’s my favourite player as well as the greatest power forward. The Spurs Big Three were seriously awesome and all three of them are under appreciated.
@mraxeattack I had been watching 'Red on Roundball' lately (the origin of Red Auerbach's instructional segments). I can't believe someone freshened it up for the younger generations. Nicely done!
"When executing a face-up jump shot, a quick foot fake will fool the defender and give you that extra inch you need to release the ball. Shoot for the center of the square and be sure to call bank shot so your opponent knows you are an honest man and are not engaged in any tomfoolery." --Timmy Duncan
Played 4 years in college. Who knows what could’ve happened if he left earlier. But almost guarantee the Spurs don’t get him, they had the worst record in the ‘97 draft due to David Robinson being out most of the ‘96-‘97 season. While he would’ve been a great player either way, who knows how different his career would’ve ended up if he wasn’t drafted by the Spurs. To me, he’s the greatest PF ever.
José 'Puculín' Ortiz was also one of the best using the bank shot. Watching him I learned and mastered the backboard/glass bank shot. Oh, and I always use #21 on my jerseys like Tim Duncan
wholly agree. he takes whatever the defense gives him, and he punishes them with such an efficient force. there is no stopping tim duncan. you just have to hope his teammates have an off night.
@4barrm Yeah...One thing about Tim Doucan's game, it makes you respect the fundamentals and things like that. He makes you take things like preparation more seriously.
i still use the glass/board as a weapon whether as a hook shot, a lay up or just a normal shot. i've been using it since i learned how to play game so basically it's part of my offensive arsenal. it's just sad that kids nowadays think it's "boring" shot or an "old school" thing that should not be used now in today's game.
I'm not a Spurs fan, but Tim is one of the best PF of all time!! Future Hall of Famer, for sure! :D David Robinson said about Duncan that he never played with better PF in all his life! :D It doesn't matter which fan are anyone, the Greatest deserve credit!! Greatings from Serbia, for all NBA fans! :D
@theprofessor23 Let me dismantle your entire comment just like this: Tim Duncan was named Player of the Decade by Sports Illustrated, he has 4 rings, and Bill Russell, a former Celtics players and arguably the best NBA player of all time, who has 11 championships and an 8 in a row from a Celtics team that he led with his defense and rebounding, called Tim Duncan - in an interview that's actually on CZcams- his favorite player. KG may be more athletic, but Tim Duncan has more experience.
@HereCuzImBoard In fact, the case with Hakeem may be the one point I'm gonna concede here. One of the main reasons I really think Duncan is the best PF ever in NBA history is because of his compatibility with a team mindset. Hakeem started to complain about his team in the early 90s, leading to some drastic changes.Duncan has never complained about his team, regardless of its success in certain seasons. And yes, Duncan is a PF. He plays with that style. It doesn't matter where he's put, but how
I don't see why, regardless of whether or not he may not display much flash, people think that an absence of highlights make him a bad player. He is one of, or perhaps, the greatest power forward ever to play basketball. He's accomplished enough to earn that spot.
@9Clutch Bernard King (NY Knicks). Red was trying to make people stop distinguishing between a PF and SF, as proven by KG, Duncan and especially Nowitzski nowadays. Look up 'Red on Roundball: Playing the Forward position'.
Some idiots think Tim Duncan would have no place in modern basketball, what a joke. I guarantee you if Duncan plays today, he would start shooting bank shots beyond the arc.
It's AMAZING how a guy can have 4 RINGS and people not bring his name up when they speak about the top PF/C's ion NBA History, when in fact, the "Big Fundamental" may be the best PF ever.
No, he appreciates good basketball, not hero ball. The idiots are the people who exaggerate and spew ignorant nonsense about "boring Tim Duncan." Those people only care about Sportscenter highlights and think that dunks make up 90% of basketball. Hell, if they want dunks, then Timmy has done PLENTY of dunks in his career.
I hope everyone knows that red was dubbed in the video from a previous video talking about Larry bird demonstrating how to be a foreward.... love Timmy d... but bird is the ultimate foreward
Still remember that finals vs Miami Heat super team, where this famous shot of him failed him or it didn't go in. Could've been or it was the winning shot.
"bank" - Because it money everytime
Why does Tim prefer the Bank to the Dunk?
No charge.

One of the few times I saw his express emotion is when he slapped the floor with his hands in frustration with himself
With all this stupid shit? What stupid shit? Fucking dumb comment
Has to go down as one of the top 10 basketball moves of all time when he retires.
top 5 in my book along with kobe/jordan fadeaway, dirk step back, 3 pointer from ray/reggie and the best of them all the skyhook
Joshua Han On that list, I would change the three-point shot to George Gervin's finger roll. That shot gave the Iceman 4 scoring titles, the most for a guard before Jordan's era.

Duncan jumper went in more than Kobe or LeBron I feel ...maybe I'm wrong...
Cousins offensive game is better than duncans ever was
Whenever someone makes a swish, I yell "KOBE!" But whenever someone sinks a bank shot, I yell "DUNCAN!"
Bank shot is TIMMY!
Yell timmy or ducan, timmy Duncan doesn't flow
"TIMMY!"
Giancarloesque
You meant GINOBILIIII
T I M M Y !
Duncan's bank is like Kareem's sky-hook; if it's falling, ain't shit you can do.
yeah that's just called making your shots my guy
Well you can't counter any moves if it's falling 😂
The way you type just Lets me guess your account is over 7 years old
Edit: and I was right
Well, if it falling and you block it that’s goaltending
He certainly meant that there's nothing you can do because it ain't gonna miss when it falls. You guys lack common sense honestly
You gotta respect Tim Duncan for just sharpening his fundamental basketball skills. No flashy dunks. Not all up in the media glitz. Just a real classy and respectable type of guy. Thats whats missing in the NBA these days.
what about now?
Duncan could have easily averaged 25-28 ppg every season if he was concerned about personal statistics. Dude was incredible.
No he couldnt, duncan was best at slow pace and doing his thing, if he speeds uo and tries it will break his rythm, you just have to watch duncan be duncan.
@@mephestopolis1951 if spurs whole scheme isn't revolving so many pass and more of the iso play he can do it

Hack Ly It would still be a poor man's version of Tim Duncan's moves, though.
Sorry
Your wish kind of came true
Aldridge actually has a good fadeaway jumper
@@wuliwei6939 That's true he just relies on it too much.
Jordan's Fadeaway, Kareem's Sky Hook, Hakeem's Dreamshake, Tim's Bankshot, Iverson's crossover.
Most iconic signature moves in the NBA
Bro You forgot Dirk One legged fade
@@1azey yes
@Not so Wealthy Gamer Not really, MJ's fade was pretty different from Wilt's especially in the situations he used it in. If you want to compare someone to Wilts fadeaway it would easily be durant, you could put them side by side like Kobe and Mj and it would look the same, especially over the right shoulder falling towards the dotted line, thats the real comparison
Kobe & MJ fadeaways
Kevin mchale up and under
off the glass, boop boop.. off the glass... boop boop! Don't go Timmy we love youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!
Greg E he’s saying that to his girlfriend every time.
My shot is literally based off of Tim Duncan, I’ve never been really good at swishing or clean shots or 3s but the bank is always something I love looking for
1:00 he wipes his shooting hand. If I saw that I might just walk away. I got no chance here get it over with
Glad Im not the only one who noticed that
All you 6'11 - 7 ft. tall children out there. This is how you apply the fundamentals in basketball.
damn i was expecting Tim duncan's voice to be a lot deeper
you would like Kareem's Voice
Tim Duncan's game is a mix of power and finesse. He has the post moves of Kevin McHale and Hakeem Olajuwon and the power of Moses Malone. His bank shot is virtually unstoppable.
“You know it’s coming but you can’t stop it” 😂
Tim was truly a pleasure to watch play. Such a legend
Am not a spurs fan, but i highly respected Tim Duncan. He's one of the greats top 10 imo
Timmy is rarely in top 5 lists, and you can't convince me it's not because he was never flashy. He'll always be the actual Mr.Fundemental(s) to me.
The reason he always did the bank shot was because Tim Duncan knew how incredibly reliable it was and so he just kept doing it
it is for everyone, the reason others don't use it because of ego
No crazy shots or crazy moves just simple but great i love Timmy he's my favorite
the best thing about this video is that it's all well-guarded plays
He made it looks so easy.
John Wooden would have love Tim Duncan...
Two year anniversary of Timmy joining the HOF! Ive had the pleasure of seeing him a few times playing against my Lakers! Only in hindsight do I appreciate his game. I just hated losing to him!!!
don’t vote biden and don’t come to texas
Who's here because Tim Duncan is a coach at Spurs?
Still unfathomable that he won 5 championships doing one single move. Its incredible!
Wow. Realization, that this is the first time I've heard Tim Duncan's voice.
Duncan’s Bank Shot is in the same league as that of Hakeem’s Shake, Shaq’s Tornado Step, Dirk’s One Leg Fade, and Kareem’s Sky Hook.
His voice isnt even close to being as deep as i thought it was
Tim Duncan, my favorite player of All-Time and his most iconic and unstoppable move ❤❤❤.

Marsellus Wallace Yep he seriously is. He’s my favourite player as well as the greatest power forward. The Spurs Big Three were seriously awesome and all three of them are under appreciated.
I am a Laker fan but a basketball fan at heart and Duncan is a straight up baller,plays the game the way it should be.
Fundamentals are always the most reliable. Duncan is a good example of using them.
the most loved player of all time Tim Duncan
Timmy so consistent he hits his signature move from the same spot nearly every time
My sentiments exactly. Spoken like a true basketball fan.
@mraxeattack I had been watching 'Red on Roundball' lately (the origin of Red Auerbach's instructional segments). I can't believe someone freshened it up for the younger generations. Nicely done!
To me this is one of the big moves every P forward and center needs, just right below a hook shot
Sheesh 3 yrs ago
Tim Duncan speaks very well

whether he takes notes or not Tim will still be the man
My young guns, if you include the backboard as your target, you can adjust your shot, the goal is about 6 feet wide.
José 'Puculín' Ortiz was also one of the best using the bank shot.
Watching him I learned and mastered the backboard/glass bank shot. Oh, and I always use #21 on my jerseys like Tim Duncan
Nice touch bringing in Red and the Irish music
I just realized that before this video I have never heard Tim Duncan speak, this is my first time hearing his voice.
BEAUTIFUL.

@4barrm Yeah...One thing about Tim Doucan's game, it makes you respect the fundamentals and things like that. He makes you take things like preparation more seriously.
