Tim Duncan

Timothy Theodore Duncan (born April 25, 1976 in Christiansted, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands) is an NBA basketball player for the San Antonio Spurs, playing at the power forward position. He is noted for his poise, scoring and positioning ability in the offensive post, and effectiveness using some of the most basic and fundamental basketball moves. With three NBA championships and three NBA Finals MVP Awards, he could very well be the greatest basketball player of the post-Michael Jordan era.
