Tony Parker shares a funny Tim Duncan story 😂
People think I’m crazy when I say that, but it’s true. Timmy don’t like French people, okay? He doesn’t like my French accent. My rookie year, Timmy didn’t talk to me. I play with a lot of teammates who will complain to get the ball, you know. Oh, Bruce Bowen. Like, oh, Tony, I’m open. Tony, I was open in the corner, you know? I’m like, but hey, what’s up, Bruce? But Timmy will just look at me and I’ll go to Pop. I’m like, pop, you give me the look. And then Pop like, you really look at you? I was like, “Yeah, if you want a point guard tomorrow, we need to call a play for him right now.” Coach Pop, you’re unbelievable. Five games into my rookie year, you put me in the back in the plane. You called me and he’s like, “You starting tomorrow?” I was like, “Really?” I was like, “Did you talk to Timmy?” Yeah. Cuz I was still thinking he he didn’t like French people. So, I was like a little bit scared, you know. And Pop’s like, “You’ll be fine. You starting.” And the rest is history.

nah, he doesnt like you man. timmy loves wemby a lot and he is french. i heard he likes gobert as well.
love you TP, you're still my top 5 PG of all time behind magic, steph and ahead of zeke and CP3
Regardless if you liked the east or west division. You have nothing but respect for Tim Duncan.
They were a great team but then he slept with a teammates wife.
Great speech! Very funny!
Im a lakers fan that cannot deny how great the spurs were.
Who does bro
Biggest KOBE fanatic and a somewhat Lakers fan….Duncan Ginobli Parker Bowen and all those other mfkas they had…fkn pissed me off…alot…mfkas were just so damn GREAT!
The rest IS HISTORIC…them boys was cold Mayne fr…
So why didnt he like French people?! I dont get it
When we first got cable growing up in the Philippines, this was THE TEAM that hooked me on to the NBA
They some how managed to have a team with the chilliest French person, chilliest Argentina person, and two of the chilliest Americans at the same time. This team the type to win the finals and goto the library to read after
Duncan holding his head like it's a basketball 😂😂😂😂😂
Damn I’m getting old when the stars I looked up to have aged so much. Life is short enjoy what you have a live it to the fullest!
Thanks for all TP, you're a national treasure. 🙏🇫🇷
Pop the GOAT it’s no debate
One of the few ABA teams that they actually built an NBA fanbase for.
Tony became a starter 5 games into his rookie year on a title contender. I still don't know how he's not top 75 🤯
This was what a franchise was
As a fan of the lakers. After watching parker david and tim. Get bullied by shaq. I became a spurs fan. Then the next year they won a championship. My friend had new respect for my pick for champions.
The battles we had against the Lakers. What great time era of basketball.
Its not just TIMMMMMMY
No one likes da French 😂
Warriors fan, but that Spurs era was something else. Always enjoyed watching that team.
Tim was not vybing with any of his most trusted soldiers at first😂😂😂
Goddamn I hated these fucking spurs but I can't deny how dominating they were. Respect
Imagine moving BACK to SA in '07. I must give SA props for the family dynamic they instill. Bexar county celebrates SO loud and SO big! Todos
Spurs about to be the team to beat again once they get Giannis
Tony parker aka dirty mack
One of the most underrated PGs ever. He didn’t have the athleticism or popularity as other PGs in the league but he was a terror on the court. When he developed a mid-range, he was unguardable.
that spurs team bruh.. now we watching 3 point contest every game…
One of the greatest franchises in NBA history
Parker was never underrated people just like to put things in a comment no matter if it makes sense or not they just be writing stuff Parker was a bucket and some you take Parker away Duncan doesn't get but that 1 ship with A.Johnson D.Robinson Parker was never underrated people was happy if he was hurt
Parker was never Underrated what basketball was you watching Tony P was that guy could put 40 every night if he wanted how underrated when ave. 25 point 8 ass 4 steals his whole career yall tripping
Thorn in the side of my Lakers but man did I respect their game
Is Tony Parker immortal? He never ages
Team was legendary, man tmb
