> According to the Elias Sports Bureau, the last NBA player to make an All-Defensive Team in his first or second season was Tim Duncan in 1998-99, and the last to receive a first-team nod in his rookie or sophomore year was Don Buse in 1976-77.

    I know we’ve said it a million times, but if he can put on weight and develop a decent shot.. the kid is gonna be special

    I’m very confused as to why Tim Duncan’s first and second seasons don’t count as rookie and sophomore years. Was he injured year 1 or something?
