Steve Kerr on Tim Duncan’s leadership:
“Tim was an amazing teammate because he was so dominant. He was such a great player but he took everything on his shoulders.
And I remember we had a game one time where we lost the game, it was a close game, and he comes into the locker room, he’s like: ‘Guys that’s my fault man, it’s my fault I got to be better.’
And he had like 39 points and 18 rebounds, you know I’m looking at the stat sheet like ‘Tim you know you played pretty well..’ 😹
So guys like that who take on that burden of the teams success and are willing to take the blame even when everybody knows how good they are.. that’s powerful leadership.”

As Pop taught those paying attention in 2014, “LESS IS MORE.”
Case in point: Mike Brown played his 2026 Knicks starters 4-5 mpg less in regular season & playoffs than his predecessor Tom Thibodeau did with same men in 2025.
And as the world rediscovered, “LESS IS MORE.” #NBADH
