When you've played in the league for as long and as well as Tim Duncan has you tend to break records and join some clubs. With the win over the Utah Jazz on Tuesday night, Duncan joined a club of only two men that had ever won 1,000 games as players.

Duncan is a surefire Hall of Famer four years after he retires, whenever that might be. Every seems to be his last, but he always finds a way to keep in shape and play at a high level to contribute to the Spurs no matter how old he gets. To put that into perspective is this tweet to show how awesome Duncan has been and how terrible the Clippers have been.
Tim Duncan, 1,000 wins in 19 seasons. The Los Angeles Clippers, 1,465 wins in 46 seasons.

Tim Duncan is only just over 400 games away from tying an entire franchise's win record and he got to 1,000 wins in less than half the time it took the Clippers to get there. Just unbelievable.
