This "myth" that he plays center makes no sense. I have no idea why people think that way.
Duncan is and has always been a power forward.
He plays a low post style of the power forward. It doesn't make him a center.
Dirk Nowitzki plays a perimeter style of the power forward. It doesn't make Dirk a swingman.
David Robinson was the center for 1998-2003
Rasho Nesterovic was the center from 2004-2006
Fab Oberto took over from 2006-2008
All 3 were very effective and classic centermen.
Oberto starting totally sucking ass around 2008.
They got an aging McDyess and a young Dajuan Blair to try and replace him. Neither really worked.
None of the options were ideal, so Popovich rotated 4 players at PF and Center all the time.
2008-2011 was the only era where Duncan was forced to play out of position a lot.
Not surprisingly, the team had some of its worst post-season runs in that era.
Once Tiago Splitter got here in 2011, Duncan has exclusively played Power Forward again.
Timmy has played 90% of his entire career at forward.
