duncan was pretty damn close to winning that championship singlehandedly, ginobili was just a rookie role player, parker was nonexistent in the playoffs (hence the reason for steve kerr playing so much in game 6 of the WCF and speedy claxton in the finals) david robinson was a shell of himself, he wasnt much better than kevin willis at that point. i mean come on, we had danny ferry, steve smith, and steve kerr on that team!!! the second best player in the playoffs that year was stephen jackson, who at that point was not much more than a spot up three point shooter getting wide open looks because of duncan. here is duncan's stat line from game 6 of the finals he had 21 points, 20 rebounds 10 assists and 8 blocks!!! he broke the record for most blocks in a series in 6 games! for the series, Duncan averaged 24.2 points, 17.0 rebounds, 5.3 assists and a record 5.3 blocks a game!! just because he didnt block the ball into the upper deck (he would instead block it and posses it) or throw down thunderous dunks he didnt get the credit he deserved. if you take out duncan and play lebrons team without him the cavs would destroy that spurs team, not even close. Duncan won that championship as singlehandedly as a championship could be won in recent memory
