2332102, Tim was a PF/C Posted by FILF, Thu May-29-14 01:12 AM
>KG in fact played a lot SF for the Wolves too back when they >had like Joe Smith KG was basically Bron before Bron.....I remember him playing back-up point in the 2004 post-season after Troy Hudson got hurt. He was more of a PF/SF in Minny than a PF/C. (Dirk is also a SF masquerading as the PF)
>can you name a Spurs STARTING Center who was consistently on >the court during crunch time during ANY of the Spurs runs??
The Spurs signed Robert Horry to strictly play crunch time minutes thus Tim was a center by default. Nazr Mohammed might have been the best starting Center Tim played alongside with since Admiral just based on his 2005 post-season performance. Even in 2003, Malik Rose used to finish games depending on how well he's playing.
>in this playoffs right today...Splitter is cool...but when it >matters...Diaw is going to be at PF and Timmay is going to be >at Center Basically......but if you take into account the entire game, Tim in his PRIME played more minutes as a PF than as a C. He even appears on All-NBA Teams as a "Forward". With that said it is to his credit that he was able to play TWO position at an elite level.
