This came from Bill Walton so you may want to take this with a "grain of salt". While watching the ESPN telecast, Bill Walton reported that Tim Duncan his 3rd in the league in having his shot blocked by opponents.

Apparently he ranks 3rd in the league behind Zach Randolph and someone else. I wasn't aware they kept such a stat.

Jon Barry commented that he couldn't believe that particular stat. Neither could I.

On second thought, based on how passive Tim can get around the basket, it does seem likely.

Tim is too slow and too predictable around the basket, he has got no lift, so no surprise

I thought hating on TP or Manu was the flavor of the month (hating on Beno, Finley and Barry is always going on).

But now there is some TD hating (and it's not WBoM).

Interesting . . .

Tim Duncan must suck. It's not like he takes a lot of shots in the paint against the best defenders plus a double team or anything. The Spurs should stop giving him the ball. Fucking suckass.

think about it - how often does he get blocked? just cause its third most in the league doesnt mean its even an avg of 1 a game. its probably like 0.7 or something.

At least he gets to block other people as well. And Bill Walton and the other guys really expressed their amazement to the Duncan era, best record in American sports for the past 10 years, about .700 I think.
