Duncan is the fifth player in NBA history to make the All-NBA first team in his first eight seasons, joining Larry Bird, George Mikan, Bob Pettit, and Oscar Robertson.

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Damn; I think this is the first time in about five years when no Kings players made the All-NBA first, second or third team.

 

Dark days ahead...

[Guest Vitamin X]

Meh, seems about right except I would've switched Allen and Bryant's spots around. But their contributions in terms of their team's success obviously swings in Allen's favor, so I can understand.

[Cuban Linx]

Hard to argue with any of those teams. Normally there's a couple of spots that could go either way but i'm struggling to think of anyone really deserving missing out this year, that's a pretty comprehensive top 15.

[Adam]

Can't argue with those, although guys like Gordon, Ginobili, Jamison etc, had good years and were perhaps unlucky to miss out.
