Timmy was one Ray Allen shot from not only having 6 rings but having a full sweep of LeBalco James in the finals.

Y’all forgot that Tim Duncan never missed the playoffs in his whole career, and every single season the Spurs were a 50+ win team. Both of those are NBA records. I don’t think it’s outlandish to have Tim Duncan as high as Top 5.
He’s not saying Tim Duncan was overrated as a player, his point emphasizes that timmy has become overrated in the all time rankings as how I perceive it. While timmy was good, he was just not the “Best Player on the League” type guy for some years. Note that I said SOME not EVERY YEAR. Jimmy states that he is a beneficiary of the Spurs System and that is a fact because let’s be honest. You would not pick Tim Duncan over Kareem, Hakeem, and Shaq or players of that caliber. While timmy is the system, and you could not replace any other player in his spot he’s just not that DOG if you know what I mean which matters in this all time rankings in jimmy’s case of course. For instance in 2007 nba finals when Tony Parker won the finals mvp, why didn’t Tim Duncan win it? What’s his reasons? I mean the Spurs played against a sub par finals team. Or what about when they lost to an 8th seed on 2011? I mean would a 60 win team with shaq lose to an 8th seed? I don’t think so. That’s what I mean when he is an beneficiary of the Spurs System because although he’s the head and he created it, some players on the all time rankings are the SYSTEM. Like I said earlier you could not replace timmy within the system but for instance he doesn’t have HOF teammates, can he go on a tear like KG did? Can he do what Dirk did? Nah. Although timmy is great and he is a TOP 10 player of all time, he just doesn’t crack the top 5 for many reasons.
Ps just explaining jimmy’s point not trying to get into an argument
@@hasbulla1308 buddy what the actual fuck are you talking about. TIM DUNCAN IS THE SYSTEM. To never miss the playoffs in your whole 17 year career and to win 50+ games in every one of those seasons speaks for volumes of how dominant Tim Duncan really was. No player you just listed is in that conversation period. You take Tim Duncan out of San Antonio and I guarantee you the Spurs don’t win a single title. The fact that you’re sitting and believing the words coming out of your mouth is blasphemy. “Not that dOG” that “DOG” has done stuff no one will ever come close to doing again. That “DOG” found the fountain of youth and was able to be productive through is long career and was always a key asset to the team’s success even in the twilight of his career.

Tim Duncan is better than Kareem, he’s better than Hakeem, he’s better than KG and he’s certainly better than Dirk. You can basically alternate between Shaq and Duncan for all I care. I find it laughable that people try to discredit what Tim Duncan and the Spurs have done when all they did was play basketball the way it was supposed to be played. Tim Duncan was not a “System Player” he was the System, and everybody else just revolved around him.

Some commentator said of the Warriors in 2017 finals, along the lines of "The Cavs need to play absolutely perfect to win any games. The Warriors need to play average to sweep". I'm a die hard LeBron fan but that team was unbeatable. No team outside of all-star teams had a chance against them. Super high scoring, efficient, AND solid defense. Only Draymond could destroy that team.

So the spurs giving them wits and the rockets before CPs injury just didn't happen huh?

Duncan is beyond overrated. He'd be the 3rd best spur of all-time had kawhi stayed. And that's with him above gervin.
@@scottb3034 You realize Andre Iguodala won a finals MVP in 2015 over Steph Curry right? You going to argue Iggy was the best player on the team? As far as the 07 championship there is no argument for Parker over Duncan, that statement is absurd. Duncan was 1st team All-NBA, and finished top 4 in MVP voting that year and was robbed of DPOY. There is no debate between him and Parker as to who was best on the team.. None. I don't even wanna argue Kawhi over Duncan. You honestly believe a guy who's lucky to play 50 games in a season is better than a guy who was winning MVPs and championships in Shaq and Kobe's prime with no other all-star on his team?
I like this video. You bold af with these takes bro lol. And you backed up what you were saying with stats as much as you could. Big respect.
I don’t hate the Wemby take, but I think its funny that he turned out to be this good after you had a whole video about tempering expectations of him at the beginning of the season.
He's definitely going to have a few all time great seasons, but you still have to question the longevity. I'd bet he doesn't win any championships or MVPs or DPOYs after he turns 30.
@@denisl2760who knows but if his longevity continues he will be the goat. What he is doing as a rookie is incredible and if he keeps this up and improves into his prime and plays at this level or above for 15 seasons he would be top 5 easily

Yeah but you don't know if he's also good on air. Preparing, Making and editing RUclips videos is very different than being live. I'm not saying that he definitely can't, I'm just saying you can't assume he can make that transition.
All these youtubers you like are much better off staying far away from espn. Like the guy above me said, it's all about narratives. Jj Reddick I think is a good example. I used to really love his podcasts, he always came off to me as a smart guy ( I never liked the guy as a player). He is an absolute clown on espn. Not sure if his podcasts are similar to what they once were, stopped listening, but the difference is night and day with the content.
Nah Tim Legler is on ESPN
Hxmy needs to get that top tier tnt money
The Duncan argument can also be said for Nowitzki people forget that he used to be seen as the same tier as Harden for years until 2011 (which is still an impressive run) but people forget it
The reason Dirk is viewed the way he is is BECAUSE of what happened in 2011 not in spite of what happened of in 2011
He proved himself to be better than a Harden tier player during that playoff run
@@wedge5547 yes and no im not saying he wasnt good but people tend to waaaay overrate him this days im sorry but i cant see him as a top 15 player ever (some even put him just outside the top 10) in a way the same thing is also happening with Ginobli and people saying he was better than Nash flr exemple
@@petiteexplication6249not saying you’re lying but who’s saying manu > Nash😭😭 Nash has an MVP and that already eliminates any argument towards manu
Almost everything he said during the Duncan segment could be used to describe Tom Brady who most people have as the greatest or second greatest of all time. Probably not an apples to apples comparison between NBA and NFL, but I find that interesting to think about.
Ppl don’t forget it. The average of age of nba fans online is just getting younger. Older ppl just don’t have time to sit online and chit chat all so you get 14 year old basketball reference sleuths who start to rewrite history
Solid hot takes. I agree with the 2017 Warriors case the most. Forget accomplishments, just a 7 game series....that's rough. Maybe Showtime Lakers is your best heads up shot and ironically point production can be an issue.
1997 Bulls with Bison Dele. They have the scoring with Dele, they can go small without actually going small and their defense was way better than Golden State's.
The corner 3 was always the hardest shot to me. Never understood while everyone side the opposite
i played center in highschool. i couldn’t shoot a 3 for my life… unless it was a corner 3. they’re the easiest
Same; they always throw me off 🙁
he literally showed the numbers in the video bro
Agree. I always had trouble with getting the depth right. I'd rather shoot a slightly longer shot from up top. My best shot was always slightly off to the side near the top of the key; a little bit of angle on the board helped my depth perception a lot. I also always worried about stepping out of bounds in the corners.
Yeah I saw that take and I immediately agreed. The problem abt coner threes is that it is either in or an airball. Non corner threes have swish, bank, better chance of bouncing off the rim, and more space to shoot
Anyone who says corner 3s are the easiest 3s to make has never picked up a ball in their life. When you’re in the corner the basket might as well be invisible, its so impossibly hard to have a good percentage as a everyday baller from corner 3. It takes crazy skill and practice to be consistent in the corner
it ain’t that hard not gone lie
Nah corner 3 was my favorite tbh
Shot 40% from 3 in my college days, loved the corner and had a higher percentage from the corner.
You thought u did something , didn't u
I agree, corner three harder than the straight on or diagonal
Dude I don't even really follow basketball much at all but your videos are amazing. Wish we had someone like you for NHL content.
I remember the video you made on wemby before anyone knew him and it just astonished me on how he can do everything already at such a young age and at THAT height and now to see him in the league thriving is amazing and for you to predict it is kinda crazy too 😭😭
I think part of Tim Duncan's rise through the All-Time rankings is that he did it all for one team, which u don't think should matter, but gets in there subconsciously
Imo though Tim Duncan's career is the best blueprint of what you want out of a 1st Overall Pick for your organization
Also it helps his case the spurs quickly became a mediocre joke after he left
LeBron fan overrated Tim because he kept getting in Bron ahh 😂😂😂
@@imhotepnixonSpurs we’re the 2nd best team in the NBA in 2017 after he retired and might have won the title if Zaza didn’t injure Kawhi in WCF vs KD GSW and all they did was drop Duncan from the roster in the off season he was blessed to be in the best situation in the NBA and load managed and played light minutes the back have of his career

Isn't the corner much easier not just because it's nearer but because it was nearer you can shoot with a higher arc which increases the room for error for the ball to go in.
I'm an athlete but not even close to being a basketball hobbyist, but I swear I couldn't even gauge how I would shoot those corner threes, but I could hit half court shots with sheer upper body to wrist motion (badminton), so I can say you're on point on all of these.

I know friends that think his top 3-5. But 5-8 is very much a good spot for him
I think 5 - 8 is okay. Certainly somewhere in the top 15, probably in the top 10, but higher than 5 seems like a stretch to me. Top 5 career I'd buy; top 5 player not so much.

??? Quite literally the easiest bruh
Facts
@@j0rboeasiest is subjective “closest to the basket” is more accurate
it depends honestly, but you gotta have the right amount of power for a corner shot. not too many friendly bounces like the other spots around the arc
With the playoffs around the corner, I really want Jimmy to follow the rule of threes and make another video predicting who will win the chip this season.
The corner three take is wild. I agree that its not the easiest three (I think wing threes which let you have depth perception but don't force you to look at the rim front-on are the easiest), but only the straight-on three is harder.
What people in the US don't know about Wemby is that he was playing in the Euroleague at a high level 2 years ago in Asvel. He already had played against great european players and systems. However, last year he decided to go to a smaller French team that played no European leagues and had just one game a week. This allowed him to fully prepare himself physically for the NBA without losing the opportunity to play against grown men. I saw him play live when he was 16-17 and he was stunning to see
How did the competition in the Euroleague differ for his development than what he's experiencing in the NBA? I ask, because I too have noticed there's a certain 'polish' on players that come from the Euroleague system that even in players not athletically gifted helps them succeed in the NBA.
I always figure that the high European draft picks played euro league at least 2-3 years at some point
@@isaacjohnson7573 I wonder what would happen if there were transfer portals for players (and unless there's some NIL adoption it'd be a moot point) to go play overseas leading up to draft availability to better refine their games.
@@CharlesSweet I will speak only from my experience so it'll be a little sample size but yeah, it's totally normal for Euro young players to be more polished than US young players. When I was 16 I had the HUGE opportunity to change team and go play for a team that was competing in a higher level competition.
Now, the way basketball and franchises are structured here is different from the US. You don't have high school/college championships and tournaments, you've got different tiers of levels for basically each year for teenagers, up until under19. So silver, gold and Eccellenza (a national tournament, with the best players, kinda like D1) this for every year so under 13 silver, gold and eccellenza, 14, 15 and so forth until 19. Every franchise usually has an Adult team too and they compete in adult championships, it goes like this: Serie D, C2, C1, B, A2, A (whereas D is lower and A is pros, a tier under Euroleague, here you find Armani Milano, Virtus Bologna and so on).
Now, every franchise has the freedom to do whatever they want with their youth, this means that you can find franchises that let very young players (15, 16 ecc) play with Adults or full teams with very young players compete in adult championships. I did that.
When I was 15 I got the chance to play in C1 with adults cause I was a young promising player and then the next year a Serie B team called me to be one of the young players of the team (every adult team has to have at least two under 21 on the roster, that's a rule).
Let me tell you, that changes the way you play, you go from playing with 16/17 year olds to 25 to 35 semi pro players that have been playing at a super high level for years, even older pro players, and that casts a different light on the way you see the game, everything is faster, everyone is stronger and a better player than you and there's far more tactic than you've ever experienced before.
I think the reason rookies from the US are rougher is this, yeah, maybe they're freshmen playing with seniors, but that's it, they're not playing with adults in their prime or a little after it with lightyears of experience over them.
This said, it be far better if schools here had championships and teams and tournaments too.
@@federicobravi5752 Absolutely outstanding - thank you for sharing this with me. I 100% agree that a more systematic approach (like the one you just outlined) would improve the quality of draft stocks here in the US.
I think its better that Lebron returned to Cleveland and won a ring there after “the decision” without that people would just view him as a ring chaser the same way KD is viewed right now.
yea we likely would never have seen a 3-1 comeback if he stayed in miami. That finals was historic, probably the best.
Yep. When pushing a dude into top 10 top 5, people need to see a player win the "hard" way.
Lebron win Clevland's first Chip against the 73 win Golden State, Kobe get 2 rings without Shaq. Curry get a Chip at 22 without KD.
Dude he only went back to Cleveland because they had Kyrie and the No1 pick aka Klove trade he worked out before hand that was just his next super team it was pure coincidence it was Cleveland
Lebron in 2010 “Akron is my hometown not Cleveland I don’t owe that city anything”
Lebron in 2014 “Cleveland im coming home” FRAUD
A lot of people do view him as a ring chaser. Only difference between him & KD is that he managed to win rings with more of those teams.
KD managed to be on the best of all those teams, but he couldn't take all the people pointing out how he joined an already ELITE team that won a ring without him. But hey, he got 2 rings out of it so good for him.
@@davis2k1234they construct that roster because of him LMFAO
Totally agree with the corner 3 take, just from personal experience. Give me a top of the key 3 any day of the week.
The memes tho. 5:29 lmaoo
I have always thought the top of the key 3 is the easiest 3 point shot.
Me too
That always hits back or front rim for me. Wing 3 been the easiest for me atl
I think the elbow three is easier. You have more depth perception when you look at the rim and the backboard from an angle instead of head on. Plus, it's where most threes are shot.
Facts, top is easiest.
It’s all psychological.
I like right corner, but left corner hates me.
I also like left 45, but somehow right 45 makes me uncomfortable.

I’m not calling Tim Duncan the GOAT whatsoever, but MANY people used to attribute the Patriots success and dynasty in equal portions to Bill Belichick/their system to Tom Brady. We all know how that turned out once Brady left. The same can be said about Spurs organization as well. We just didn’t get to see Duncan on another team while he was still in the league.

Tim Duncan was BAD!
Pure facts. Unless an organisation was assembling the best of the best together (somehow), nobody was knocking off the Warriors
Oh yeah 100% and if draymond doesn’t get hurt in the 3-1 finals they win that. They would be considered the greatest dynasty ever if all of them didn’t get hurt but that’s not what happened and I’m not a warriors fan or a warriors hater either I’m indifferent about them (I used to like them but matured a bit) and they did get hurt and now we have to live with them honestly having a crazy downfall
It was karma for ruining the NBA for years I guess. It sucks knowing beforehand who is going to win the ring, there was absolutely no contest.

I see where you all come from, but it is the easiest. He also said why, because in the corner, most of the time those sharpshooters get a clear look. That's why they say it is the easiest one. If you ask me, it's not, but to those guys in the NBA, it is.
I always airball corner threes
yeah, one of the points he brought up was the backboard, you can be a little off, but you can soft bank a 3 point shot, but from the corner, the bank 3 is far less likely to go in, so I totally agree with his points as even playing at the playground, get balied out by the backboard, but not sure I ever had if I tried shooting a corner 3.
For the corner 3, anyone that actually plays ball will know what I’m talking about, but I believe that it depends on your spot. For some it’s there spot, and for some it’s not.
2017 warriors were BY FAR the best team ever becasue of their pace, chemistry and players individual skill.
1997 Bulls would still beat them. that team won 69 games missing 2 HOF for 30 games each and their starting center luc longley for 20. They also acquired an all-star in bison dele to help in the playoffs. Could play small while still being very big and had better defense than just about any other team in history. they'd also have a rebounding edge of 20 over the warriors every game.
When KD Joined that warriors team. I lost all the motivation to watch nba games.
But when i learned that team is breaking down 1 after another in the season where they lost to the raptors in the finals. That's where i started watching again.
No cap. Literally made me stop watching basketball until the Finals agains Toronto
I stopped watching when Miami created their big 3
@@ballngm64you stopped watching for no reason. The Miami Heat big 3 was not as “unfair” as the 17’ warriors, you still had three HOF’ers on the Celtics, Spurs, the young OKC, Kobe n Pau in LA, etc.
@@ballngm64just lying for attention
facts as a mavs fan we beat that miami team and that gave us and all the other teams hope that it could be done. that warriors team with kd was so good you didn’t even want to watch the games because you already knew the outcome
I felt like Jimmy was supposed to post this by April 1 but instead post this just hours before April 1. Funny AF
Absolutely, most of the time he got good point but Lmao that Tim Duncan take was horrible ! Especially knowing spurs history for years they didn’t do anything great that’s a winning culture with a young coach and a lot of help from stars ?! 😂
@@holypopy fr Tim duncan is easily top 6 all time
I respect all the takes Jimmy, a real ball knower can usually make these decisions in their mind based off a logic developed from watching/playing the game for 20+ years
If you had to draft a player purely from their rookie season there's no chance you take anyone other than Wilt Chamberlain. Man averaged 37pts 27rbs and was the league MVP.
Yeah, but everyone sleeps on him because of the era. Also isn’t as versatile as Wemby and was already 23. It’s a good point tho
Preach
bro if we done with the 90's, we done with the 60's a thousand times over. Wemby crossing that boy out his shi.
@@Billi84-MaBoi In all honesty, Wilt was an athletic superhuman. Wemby might have a deeper bag than rookie wilt, but wilt was way stronger and more athletic.
Yea against who?
Wilt averages 38 and 27 his rookie year and was also a freak of nature. Give me him 1st overall
playing against plumbers
I think Wilt is possibly the best athlete to have ever played, but he doesn't have the finesse snd shooting that Victor does. 1 v 1 I think Wilt breaks him, but on a team, Victor stretches the floor and controls the paint on D better (only because of his length)
@@codynorton5402 I agree that Victor has displayed better “talent” but I think with today’s advances in training wilt could easily develop the finesse and shooting of victor while remaining the greatest athlete the game has ever seen.
@@jamesondale7320he already had that in his era.
Played for the globetrotters and up until the 70’s he was a primarily a jump shooter
He also played against guys who wouldn't even be good enough to play D1 ball today
As a ball player who loves the corner three, I fully agree that it is a hard shot. I have practiced it to master it and even then I still find it more daring or challenging than taking a top of the key three.
I always agree with you, but this last hot take? I'd go with the Bulls over the Warriors. I guess the only one who really knows is Steve Kerr.

I don't get the "timmy D was surrounded by a winning culture," argument trying to TAKE AWAY from his greatness, when the same thing is used to ADD to MJ and Kobe's greatness.
Jordan made the bulls winning culture, Duncan was drafted in it
@@spideyspits1667I don’t know why that is presumed to be true. Popp is no doubt a legendary coach but most of his coaching career (and virtually all of his success ) coincided perfectly with Duncan.
Yup lol. Apparently Phil fucking Jackson, Scottie fucking Pippen, and Shaquille fucking O’Neal were all a bunch of bums being carried by MJ and Kobe, but Timmy was secretly being boosted by Pop and players better than Shaq and Pippen (Manu, Tony, Bowen, Rich J…. 😂)
@@spideyspits1667the Spurs were horrible when Duncan was drafted lol.
@@spideyspits1667 spurs hadnt made it to the western conference finals in like a decade before Timmy was drafted. He won FMVP in his third year. He was drafted into a consistently alright team and made it into a perennial contender, on the back of his consistency and fundamental play.
2017 Warriors got me back into watching basketball after over a decade. That team was just madness to witness.
I am on the Wemby train, big time. This kid is special, and I think we'll all be impressed with his career, when all is said and done.
we're already immensely impressed, tf do you mean we'll all be impressed, we've BEEN impressed
I do agree that the 2017 Warriors are most likely the best team in basketball history BUT if there was a team to beat them in a 7 game series, it would be the 2014 Spurs.
good take
2014 spurs would probably be my pick too
Stop it, washed up dirk took this team to 7
They were such a thing of beauty
Hell nah
We are currently witnessing the slow passing of the torch from Lebron to Wemby. That's my take
Not really a take, just an observation
Watch him break like a twig in a couple years
Lebron doesn't even have the torch right now you fool. Jokic, Luka and Giannis are all better than him right now
Y'all were saying that about Zion 😆
For the way I see it, Lebron is definitely passing the torch to Luka Doncic. It's his generation and we'll praise him once he wins a title
I was thinking that exact thing about the corner three when I was playing ball today
i completely agree with all of these, he builds his opinions and evidence so well
Wholeheartedly agree with that Bron take. The Heat had some more good years in them. I don’t think he should’ve left the Cavs and the 2020 Lakers team not lasting another season was just crazy. If Bron was more patient he could’ve had way more chips.
I think just for LeBron’s case, the Heat could have had even more great years, but not for Wade and Bosh. By 2014, Wade’s body was really breaking down on him badly and he already missed a ton of games in the last Big 3 season. His injures likely would have stayed the same even if LeBron stayed which probably would have reduced his role on the team. As for Bosh, his blood clots were always going to happen no matter what, so he would have likely would have only had one good season with LeBron had he stayed.
He had to get his home city a ring my guy. it was always the mission
The 2020 team wasn’t his fault. They didn’t have the cap space and players were asking for way more since they just won a chip
Agree and Lebron is my guy. I just think the first stint with the Cavs showed him that an organization making the wrong moves could literally break his career, so he felt like he needed to take charge. Makes sense, but I do think he's been wrong more than once.
if a single player is able to make decisions over the actual gm, that is simply a bad gm
i think a lot of the Tim Duncan love is because of the rise of advanced analytics which put Tim Duncan's value in a new light. He's not my GOAT but in certain and relevant emerging stats, he is the most valuable player of all time. As a stat oWAR and dWAR are still being worked on in basketball, but Tim is higher than anyone who's ever played, and thats seriously good
The rise of Tim Duncan's status is mostly due to the polarized nature of GOAT debates.
I recently heard someone argue for the NBA "Put up all the individual stats you want, you play Basketball to win". I kinda like that logic and with that in mind, Tim Duncan won over 1000 games in his career at a 72% winning percentage. The spurs were basically an automatic 50+ win team during his career
@@beefhammer270 that has a lot to do with the organisation. Like if your numbers are not good u aint really doing that much as fans think. not talking about duncan casue his prime was insne
he isn't....he's 24th in oWar and 2nd in dWar for an aggregate of 6th.
Even with advanced analytics he doesn't shake out as most valuable or a top 4. And things like WAR or VORP are very much a longevity thing which is why he is so high but not the only way to measure value. Sure being pretty good for a long time is great but being amazing for a shorter time may be even more valuable and better. Just ask a Jordan or a Magic. I would take their shorter, higher peak careers than duncans really long, steady one.
I mean, Magic won The FMVP in his rookie season. Wilt stats on his ROOKIE season was 37.6 ppg 27 rpg 2.3 apg how can you not select that.
The move is to CLE needs more context, bc the warriors overpowered stopped him from collecting at LEAST two rings while he was in his prime. if he wins 2 more rings in that stint (and he came very close) the conversation is shifted completely
That corner 3 is a trap lol. 100% agree with ya brotha
Jimmy is the only RUclipsr whose videos I instantly click as soon as I see them. Also, he is the reason I started watching basketball more regularly.
Thanks Jimmy, you're the 🐐
As a coach I would tell my players to practice corner 3s more because often they are the most open AND because they are the most difficult.
Wemby has been my favorite part of this season, really surprised how well he transitioned into the NBA
I 100% agree on the corner 3. Something about it that I barely see the rim for some reason, probably because I can't see the backboard. It's easier to sink 3s from the upper right or left than corner 3s.
The thing is this was NEVER an argument. Corner 3 was always the toughest.
Love your content and you give great NBA retrospect. Wishing you the best in life Jimmy, Love your vids
You have to make a video about the west standings bro😭 cause it's crazy
THANK YOU for mentioning the corner three. Not a hot take imo.
Duncan wasn't "widely considered" to be "around 15th" when he retired. He's generally been around 8th for a decade plus: Bleacher Report had him 8th in 2013, ESPN had him 8th in 2016, CBS had him 7th in 2017, SI had him 10th in 2016, Bill Simmons had him 7th in 2010. Really unusual TikTok-like take from you.
Among the general fanbase though Duncan was DEFINITELY not top 10 when he retired, he quickly crept up the rankings though and Jimmy's take isn't wrong even if what he said about being 15th was.
The 'tiktok' take would be the opposite, saying timmy is top 5 all time😂
My point is, I don’t think he “crept up” the rankings. I’m not sure how you would go about measuring “general fan” sentiment, but my comment above is not cherry-picked; I’ve never seen a list from a “popular” outlet that had Duncan in the 15th range. It’s really hard to be universally seen as the GOAT PF (which he was before he retired) and be outside the top 10.
Tim Duncan was pretty much unanimous top 10 nearly top 5 when he retired
look up bruce bowen's top 5 all time. Even Tim duncan's teamate (bruce bowen) puts Kobe over Duncan. Duncan was great, but thrived because he literally was under Popp and the greatest offensive system ever.
Not to mention duncan "led" team USA to bronze in 2004 with lebron (the one time we saw Duncan NOT play under Popp. He failed (USA always got gold before that).
I think the rise of Duncan in the rakings is correlated to lebron fans honestly. Duncan's two main strenghts are consistency and longevity (same as Lebron's arguemnts for the GOAT). Thats why it took Gen Z kids to move Duncan up the list to also argue for Lebron to be higher than MJ (who didn't have longevity since he retired twice and early).
Jimmy is the only RUclipsr who’s bad takes are actually good takes…
The only one he missed on was the lebron one cleveland was the best move for him
He missed on the Duncan one.
Nah the Timmy D take was horrible lol
He has LeBum over Timmy, peak redditor move.
That Tim duncan take was nasty
Okay, I really like Jimmy's videos, but this whole Tim Duncan segment just felt really wrong, like, where did that list from 2:51 come from? Duncan at 15th? What is the source? Most lists that I found from 2015-2017 had Timmy around 10th and 9th, actually, to this day Timmy is still considered in that range. So I have no idea what Jimmy is talking about, did he just pick some random instagram comments thinking they represented a large part of the fans? I always thought that most sane fans had Duncan at 10th to 7th.
What are the sources for the lists at 5:04, why are you taking a list that has Ginobili at 3rd seriously? Why does that last list have 12 players? And how are those list the "fan consensus"? There is literally no credibility to those top 10.
Also, if we followed the logic of a player's ranking rising after retirement meaning that said player has become overrated, Kobe would also be considered overrated, just look at those lists at 5:04, in 2015-2016 Kobe wasn't even in most lists (and the list that had him at 7th also had Ginobili and Iverson in the top 10), but suddenly he's around 7th and 6th for those 2023-2024 lists, so, is Kobe overrated?
I've never seen a consensus that Tim Duncan is the 3rd or 4th best player of all time, so I don't know if I'am the one out of the loop or if Jimmy created a narrative just to make a video about it, but that whole segment just felt like he cherry picked some dumb takes and just ran with it.
Someone with sense thank you🙏🏽
I am seeing a lot of 5th or 6th but never really top 3 unless they are out of their minds. Me? Have him just outside of the top 10 with curry and maybe someone like durant.
@@scottb3034Nah I have seen people saying Duncan is the goat quite a few times. Actually more than you could imagine
@@crimsonkid1863 Well they don't know what they are talking about then. He isn't even the greatest spur ever.
I was a stretch four and hated corner threes. Only reason I was good at them was because coach had me drill them more than any other long ball shot.
Thx jxmy, always great when you post
Tim Duncan never had a losing season, 5 championships and 1 loss, Best PF of all time Tim Duncan is not overrated by any means.
Him never having a losing says infinitely more about the team than it says about him, Jordan, lebron have had losing seasons but duncan doesn't hold a candle to them, he definitely is slightly overrated
Tim Duncan was not a power forward, he was a center. He only played the 4 out of respect to David Robinson.
He is overrated by kids today, because of old folks like me saying how great he was.
Did you not watch the video? He also agrees Duncan is a top10-15 player. But people putting him top3 is going too far imho.
LeBron fans don't care about losing...duh
The "Corner three sucks" got me unguarded lol
Hopefully in time AI and simulations will allow us to see a realistic depiction of Peak Warriors vs Peak Bulls or Peak Heat
That last take was as real as it get‘s, 100% agree the 2017 warriors were what domination actually looked like if it was a basketball team.
under modern rules, easily the best team, not sure in a different era with a dominant center or more contact allowed by officials those guys would all be lining up behind the arc when a "snakebite" foul doesn't get called and the 3's don't fall.
1996 Bulls are better
@@hepwo91222their floor spacing would kill any defense. Modern athleticism can hardly keep up with curry running around. kd would score at will. That dominant center is wasting his time guarding Zaza while the rest of his team is getting cooked. Until they put demarcus cousins in who could go to work in the post.
Yet they still couldn't 3 peat. Pathetic!
The warriors were lucky af they didn't go up against luka or wemby
That's his worst take on this list. Warriors had only 2 superstars where past and future teams have had more.
Always happy to see you upload
People think the corner three is easier?! Are you serious? Like... really?
My hot take is that none of these are hot takes. An excellent video and breakdown of information and opinion, but not hot takes. Great vid as always, Jxmy!
Thank you Jimmy for mentioning that the corner 3 is the hardest 3 to take I used to tell my teammates and they did not get it !!!
I guess this is where the term “LeGM” comes into play. 😭😭 7:15
2:47 Anyone else notice that Karl Malone is ranked at 13th?
Tim Duncan and Pop reminds me of Tom Brady and Bill Bellichek. I know Pop and bellichek are two of the greatest coaches of their respective sports, but would they be viewed like that if Brady and Duncan were never there?Brady is viewed as the goat but Tim Duncan is disrespected because of the system he was in, and to be fair Brady left New England and won a Super Bowl while Timmy never left San Antonio, but don’t disrespect Timmy Jimmy
I think the thing is that he is not disrespecting Tim, He gave him his flowers just said that people take it too far
also with timmy, spurs where never near the finals, until he was drafted there.
Not for nothing but I'm a Spurs fan and the system hasn't been looking that great without TD .. No matter how good the system is, you need great players to execute the plays so I agree with you.
The Difference is that Brady won 7, duncan only won 5.
look up bruce bowen's top 5 all time. Even Tim duncan's teamate (bruce bowen) puts Kobe over Duncan. Duncan was great, but thrived because he literally was under Popp and the greatest offensive system ever.

That's crazy to think about that Shaq averaged 3.5 blocks as a rookie yet he didnt win a single DPOY in his entire career.
I didn’t hear any hot takes here. I wholeheartedly agree with these takes, but maybe Jimmy has molded my brain through out the years but who knows🤷♂️. Great video keep up the work 💪

Great vid man, gonna be binging your vids now lmao
The spurs acquiring Tim Duncan was the whole reason why they were able to continue their sustained excellence. They saw the writing on the wall with Robinson and knew he wasn’t gonna be here much longer. They needed Timmy as much as he needed them.
Still can’t disregard how amazing the spurs was and is at managing a team in basketball, replace Tim Duncan with shaq or KG and you get a very similar situation I feel like actually they would’ve both been better
Everyone that was part of that dynasty HAS already said it was all thanks too Timmy , yet people like Highroller wanna give credit to everyone but Duncan and he’s the only player all time to win 4 rings without a teammate that made all nba that year
Do people really believe this? 😂 Only lebron fans says this because Duncan has a more successful legacy. 5-1 finals record, never missed the playoffs, 0 losing seasons. All with the same team. The most successful legacy of all time.
Robinson played another like 6 years after duncan was drafted...sure he was never the same player from the injury but he was all-star level for handful more years despite it and duncan taking away from him.
It wasn't like he retired after 1999.
@@ArturoRamirez2003BSyet when it is all done he will have 4 HOF teammates. and their giving deference to duncan doesn't mean others weren't capable of doing as well or better than him in that situation...just means they know he was a great player.
I agree the conner 3 is not the easiest, especially in a game environment
I used to play basketball a lot until 2012, and I was not a 3 point shooter (21 % per cent at 17 yo against grown man on my second season, 2008 with this team in Belgium, Europe) but the majority of it, I hit them in the corner. I don't know why, but it was easier for me. So it depends from player to player.
The "Popovic's coaching excelence" argument 1 minute and a half after exalting Kobe... Who happened to win all his championships under Phil F'n Jackson... Who also happen to have coached Jordan in all his championships
Everyone win with good to great coaching and at least decent teamates. Stop that sh*t right there
100% agree. Same as saying Steph is overrated because he played in a good system..
That one made no sense to me
LeBron had dumb and dumber for two of his four 👀
For a guy who's meant to be this profound basketball thinker that was an extremely tired and casual take. When Duncan got hurt and missed the playoffs the year after winning his first championship that supposedly great Spurs team he had with David Robinson couldn't get out of the first round against a 5th seeded Suns team whose best player Jason Kidd didn't even play in the series, they really weren't that good.
Then there was that bullshit about Duncan benefitting from continuity even though he later admitted LeBron left Miami because it was a disadvantage for him to stay on the same team, by his logic Jordan shouldn't be the GOAT.
Yeah, but without Pop and without Phil, Duncan led Team USA to a humiliation and Kobe led it to redemption
IMO Duncan is definitely between 5-8, put him anywhere in there and I’m happy with it. Only thing that bothers me about Duncan is Kobe is constantly brought up about playing with Shaq yet no one ever brings up that Duncan always had support.
New Jxmy video just dropped! Gonna be a great day
