Tim Shooting 3´s...

[TheAffricanFan]

... on regular basis like Sheed Wallace... Is it a Good idea???

I think that it would bring another dimension to his game making him lot more difficult to guard !!!

I Like it...

[Kamnik]

I think if it could be effective Spurs would implement it a long long time ago...

1 attempt a game wouldn't bother me if he's wide open

[VaSpursFan]

if he happens to get the ball at the 3 point line and the shot is there shot it. however, his strength is in the paint and that's where he needs to be. i'm not sure if i'm ready for pick and pops with timmy drifting out for a 3.

[remingtonbo2001]

Don't we have enought 3 point shooters?

[td4mvp21]

We already have enough players shooting 3's, we don't need our 7 foot power forward doing it too.

[word]

I think he should jack at least 2 from half court each game. Now that would really add another dimension to his game. Maybe even a shot from the top of the key ...at the other end of the court.

[T Park]

I wouldn't be opposed to him jacking one up on a pick and roll with Tony at the top of the key. Its usually a shot at the top of the circle, why not back it up to the 3. No one will respect the shot.

[SenorSpur]

Only with the shot clock running down.

Don't want Tim to turn into our version of Dirk

[spursfan09]

Nope, Just because he can hit that shot does not mean he should be playing that. He needs to play down low. That is where our advantage is almost every game.

[Shaolin-Style]

I've always been of the mindset Duncan could shoot just as well from the 3 as he could from just out past the ft line.

He just sticks to what hes superb at though. Hard to get rebounds and put backs from out there.

[BonnerDynasty]

Tim Duncan career stats: 24-124 19.4%

[YoMamaIsCallin]

Well, he COULD shoot 3s... but why should he?

A lot of people on the team could do a lot of things. But they don't. Why? Because of offensive efficiency.

[Shaolin-Style]

Most the 3s hes taken throughout his careers have either been half/full courts or shotclock desperations so those stats don't really reflect what hes capable of from beyond the arc if he tries to incorporate that into his game, but we'll never know anyway cause he won't.

[BonnerDynasty]

He can dribble pretty well. Let's start him at PG.

[hater]

yeah, and let's sign Antoine walker while we're at it

[sandman]

Seriously, is the ASG weekend so rough that we have to resort to crap like this?

[mavsfan1000]

Great idea. While we're at it lets have Bruce Bowen start to post up players as well.

[ducks]

Great idea. While we're at it lets have Bruce Bowen start to post up players as well.
just because duncan could make more then that choke player called dirk

[clubalien]

He can dribble pretty well. Let's start him at PG.
I think we called it point forward before

[ATXSPUR]

the last time I remember Tim hitting a 3 was when we were playing catch up against the lakers in the 02 playoffs

erm... he hit a 3 in game 7 against the pistons for the '05 championship.

Atari also rated him only 1 ball in 3 point shooting. they also rated him only a 1 ball in defense even though he just won DPOY the year the video game came out.

Team San Antonio wins Shootout Stars

San Antonio Express-News

NEW ORLEANS — Proving that size is no detriment to long-range accuracy, the two greatest big men in Spurs history on Saturday gained the most unlikely bragging rights of their careers.
Tim Duncan and David Robinson each made a half-court shot to lead Team San Antonio to victory in the shooting stars challenge that was part of All-Star Saturday at New Orleans Arena.

Teaming with Silver Stars standout Becky Hammon, Duncan and Robinson outshot Team Chicago, led by Chris Duhon, B.J. Armstrong and Candice Dupree, in the final round of a shooting contest that is a race against the clock to make shots from different spots on the court.

Robinson hit the long shot to get the Spurs in the final round. Duncan's half-court shot, on his first try, won it.

"I make them all the time," Duncan said of his long shot, "and that's not even sarcastic. That's actually true."

Fail.

No, no he didn't.

http://www.nba.com/games/20050623/DETSAS/boxscore.html

He had an awesome 3rd quarter of gritting it out, and hit a BASELINE jumper in the 4th, but he didn't launch or hit a 3. Where the hell did you get that from?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

great idea: Having Manu, Ime, Bowen, Horry, Bonner, Barry, Damon, who all can shoot 3 point shots we now need our power forward to become a 3 point shooter?

I don't ever want Duncan shooting 3's unless the shot clock is running down...it would be a waste of posititon if he started to take 3's for any other reason.

:tu

Sheed has been CRITICISED his entire career for shooting too many long Js and not taking full advantage of his great post game. Why would we want Tim to duplicate a skill that we already have all over the court when no other player can bring his inside presence?
