*Nodding along*
Whether it's because people didn't see him play enough or don't take the time to probe the contexts like was done in the video, Timmy, somehow gets lumped into these not-as-GOAT discussions. Of course, those who witnessed his career don't question it, but it's good to have reminders like this. Good thing we at least have video evidence or else detractors could always retort with 'opinion' and 'hearsay'.
I'd have added sections about the culture Timmy went into which was such a great fit for him and the team, as well as Timmy's character as a person that affected how he was as a player that continued the way the Spurs could and do work. He was willing to share the spotlight, willing to share the load, and have team mates make key contributions such that they carved out their own status while helping the team succeed and its culture thrive.
