You know what? this .
If we're doing a re-draft of players in the entire history of the ABA/NBA (set em all at age 18) --
Timothy Theodore Duncan is my #1 pick, every ing time, no hesitation, no pondering, no thinking required. Automatic #1.
I don't care what rules we're arguing, what 'era', what style of play, what players I need to put in place around him -- it's Timmy D.
Because all Timmy does is win. He'll do whatever it takes, make whatever sacrifices, be there as a leader for his teammates no matter what. Not only being 'drama-free' or 'not negative' but being the single most positive influence to the whole organisation.
1,000+ wins for the same franchise. And not the lucking fakers or racist-ass celtics.
Tim Duncan is my #1.
(And because of Timmy, if we're re-drafting coaches I'm going with Popovich because Timmy would want it that way.)
