I have watched Tim Duncan play since he was in college playing for Wake Forest. Duncan played in a championship game against North Carolina and Rasheed Wallace. Neither Duncan nor Wallace changed much as players since those teenage years. Duncan was always a bit slow but very disciplined, and Wallace was always a rough player. Both Duncan and Wallace were dominant players for their teams in college.
