Tim Duncan has ended his stellar playing career, and Jason Mann and Rich Kraetsch are out to prove that, yes, the San Antonio Spurs icon and five-time NBA champion was, in fact, interesting.

They discuss what about Duncan’s game made him seem boring to some, why the debate over whether he was a power forward or center misses the point, his fear of sharks, competing with Alonzo Mourning at age 16, why he was the last great four-year college player, how dominant the Spurs were in 1999, Duncan’s love for paintball, why there are no pictures of him at a Renaissance Fair, his failed attempt at a “Merlin” nickname, his relationship with Gregg Popovich and his teammates, stories of him being nice or funny to his opponents, and some eye-popping numbers about his career and the Spurs’ success.
