19 years..........wow. What a career he had, an all time great not just at his position, all time great player.

This is a fun read:

This stat is awe inspiring:

Since drafting Duncan, the Spurs posted a 1,072-438 regular-season record. That is the best 19-year stretch in NBA history and tops in the four major U.S. sports over the past 19 years.

Such a class act too. The total opposite of the "Look At Me" player.

Coach Pop should thank Tim everyday for the rest of his life.

The end of an era. After Durant's announcement to join GS, I hold more respect for Kobe than I did before. Duncan's a given seeing that he did not have an overinflated ego. This is Lebron's Legacy: All-Star players ring chasing.

Duncan is easily one of the best PF's of all time. I have a lot of respect for him because he played at a high level for nearly 2 decades with only 1 team, and brought them 5 championships. Great career.
