Tim Duncan appreciation

[Nathan89]

Still the best player on this team.

Also won the jump ball in all of the 6 ot's.

[DesignatedT]

GOAT

[HI-FI]

co-fucking-signed.

[timtonymanu]

Sucks that Turnobili and Cancerneli wasted a great game from him.

[ElNono]

He was great again tonight... goat, tbh

[BillMc]

Man is amazing. Hope he plays 2 more years minimum.

[Arcadian]

Yes. Not just the Spurs GOAT, but at this point a legit candidate for NBA GOAT (all things considered, including longevity)

[Mugen]

:lol When's the last time the Spurs didn't waste an amazing performance by Tim? Abusing a prime LaMarcus at 50 years old....

[BatManu20]

GOAT

He and Green were the only reason we were even in that game.

[mexicanjunior]

Still the best player on this team.

Also won the jump ball in all of the 6 ot's.

His missed FT's crippled us in the Memphis game but he was great tonight.

[Buddy Mignon]

Still the best player on this team.

Also won the jump ball in all of the 6 ot's.


The best two players were sitting on the bench, you dummy.

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

He's been the best player on the team for every season of his career except 2011.

[Harry Callahan]

He needs some help.

The Dallas game is a loss too. I hate the Mavericks guts. We have two triple OT games in three days? There is nothing in the tank. The Spurs killed themselves trying to win these two games and got shafted. Pure and simple shafted.

Pop would be very irresponsible putting any of the top eight guys out there more than 20 minutes. They should call up some Austin Spurs to play in Dallas and try and get out of Dallas without any more injuries.

This season has been extremely frustrating.

The injuries and to a lesser extent the coasting has got to come to an end very soon or this season will be much shorter than last season.

This team has no edge to it right now - they are hitting a wall with the players they have out there now.......

June 15, 2014 wasn't that long ago, but it has nothing to do with right now. Things are not working well right now.

[Buddy Mignon]

He's been the best player on the team for every season of his career except 2011.

He hasn't been the best player on this team for the last team years.

[Nathan89]

His missed FT's crippled us in the Memphis game but he was great tonight.

Factoring in his ft shooting he is still the best on the team tbh. He had a terrible ft shooting game vs Memphis though.

[Johnny RIngo]

Amazing that he's still able to contribute at his age while Kobe drags his team into the lottery. Best player of his generation by far.

[milkyway21]

:worthy:

[TampaDude]

Timmy won this game. Turnobili lost it.

[Buddy Mignon]

He lost... why the appreciation.

[tlongII]

Duncan was great. He's one of the best players I've ever seen.

[Harry Callahan]

He hasn't been the best player on this team for the last team years.

What are team years? Are they like dog years?

What are you anyway - Mavies fan? Lakers fan?

Certainly no Spurs fan. You should correct your info and not be such a douche bag.

[nevitt_&_smrek]

Any true fan of the sport knows he's a treasure. Modern day Kareem.

[Legacy]

Being a 5x NBA Champion is tough work. APPRECIATE BITCHEZZ!!

Nigga if you don't know me you should log off for good.

Its tougher when you defend it.

[DMC]

Nigga if you don't know me you should log off for good.
What would the 9 tailed dragon do here?

[BatManu20]

He lost... why the appreciation.

Because not since Kareem have we seen a big man play this well into his twilight years.

You of all people should understand.

[Malik Hairston]

He's having a huge season, so far, going unnoticed by the national media and casual fan, as usual:lol..

Pretty crazy when you look at the other players in the league that are around his age..

[Nathan89]

Nigga if you don't know me you should log off for good.

He should consider himself lucky imho

[Southwest Texas Fan]

He lost... why the appreciation.

WTF man! Are you a troll? Duncan freaking rocked tonight 32 10 with 4 blocks.

[MultiTroll]

Yet another great game.

[Mugen]

:lol good god luva just begging in this thread, somebody drop this nigga some change pls

[Legacy]

Its tougher when you defend it.

That's what I was implying. ;)

[BatManu20]

WTF man! Are you a troll? Duncan freaking rocked tonight 32 10 with 4 blocks.

He's a Lakers fan.

[Budkin]

Duncan was great. He's one of the best players I've ever seen.

:tu

:lmao

Are you crazy... or just stupid. At this point of his career Kareem was still dominating with over 36,000 points. Jim is barely over 25k.

[Buddy Mignon]

:lol good god luva just begging in this thread, somebody drop this nigga some change pls


You already know the deal.

[Legacy]

Duncan was great. He's one of the best players I've ever seen.

:toast

[midnightpulp]

Just amazing. I heavily criticized him for missing those 10 FTs the other night, one of the rare times I've called out Duncan, and it was awesome to see him shoot a clutch 8/9 in a close game. His ability to respond after a fuckup is second to none.

Ginobili also had a poor FT shooting game vs. Memphis. And, predictably, followed it up with a 1-3 effort from the line tonight. It really makes you appreciate Duncan's consistency.

[Legacy]

He DEFINITELY made up for last night. I couldn't take my eyes off of him during the whole game. :wow

[mkurts]

Duncan is just so good that people ignore him and worship the other two flashy chokers

[Harry Callahan]

Nigga if you don't know me you should log off for good.

You know, I may have seen you in a movie. Were you the cross-dresser in "Dallas Buyer Club?" Weird flick.

Answer my question and at least pretend that you got a pair. Mavie fan or Laker fan?

Pop has had to lean too much on Manu so far this year. We need Mills to come back ASAP. The wear and tear so far has been too much.

[Johnny RIngo]

Are you crazy... or just stupid. At this point of his career Kareem was still dominating with over 36,000 points. Jim is barely over 25k.

Kareem had the benefit of playing with one of the greatest point guards of all-time to feed him easy buckets. Not to mention he only played one side of the floor and never had to anchor the team's D.

Meanwhile, Duncan has to play with Cory Joseph :lol

[daslicer]

Was fun to watch him turn back the clock and dominate Aldridge.

[polandprzem]

Relax man, we still are at the begining of the season. Right now playing without Mills Leo and TP so I would not be so worried

[spurs10]

Hail the Goat! Unreal fabulous performance tonight!

[SupremeGuy]

I think he's old enough to know that while these losses are annoying, they're not season ending. I bet that everyone feels like shit for wasting back-to-back great performances from their HOF oldest player.

The bright side? Tim has shown that when the playoffs come around, he's still a beast. I hope he doesn't have to go all out again anytime soon. Our GOAT needs rest.

[r0drig0lac]

the two best (MJ and Big O)

[kobexxx]

Choked

[DMC]

When are people going to stop using "turned back the clock" for a guy who's level is consistent? Tim can always put up those numbers if he has those minutes.

[nevitt_&_smrek]

I must interject here. When Oscar joined Milwaukee, he was clearly on the decline. Statistically, Kareem had some of his strongest offensive years playing with no one. He didn't need too much help putting up individual numbers. Everyone needs help to win, however. Duncan is feeling that a bit lately, with Leonard and Parker out. Must be frustrating.

I agree Kareem wasn't as strong as Duncan in terms of rebounding, defensive positioning, particularly later in his career. But someone was defending the paint and intimidating the guards on those Lakers teams. I can assure you it wasn't Kurt Rambis. 11-times on 1st or 2nd all-defense isn't so shabby. In the mid-80s, there was a fascination towards the shot blocking giants like Eaton and Bol. They stole some of honors away. :P

[TheGreatYacht]

Wasted performance from the goat. Hopefully he realizes that turnaround bunny is automatic for him.

[rmt]

TD was great last night. Bet he put up a couple hundred free throws between games. Consistent excellence - just amazing. I'm really savoring watching Duncan and Federer in their twilight years.

I still wonder where the fuck his head was in previous game while standing at FT line. Shots flat, hopeless, rarely even in the cylinder.
