Official Timothy F. Duncan thread

[ShoogarBear]

And you know what the F stands for. :fro

[CubanMustGo]

buh buh buh Shaq was going to OWN TD

[/sunfantroll]

[Leetonidas]

To be fair, Timmy did most of his damage with Shaq on the bench, but when Shaq was in at the end, Timmy still came through.

Greatest PF ever.

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Words can't explain how much I love that man! :lol!! Simply amazing!

[~Sweetmelody~]

I love this man...

[Spurs Brazil]

Fuck the haters

TD is the best

Never doubt him never

[CubanMustGo]

And you know what the F stands for. :fro

FORTY.

[carina_gino20]

After he made that shot, I was just, "Oh, my Lord. Oh, my Lord."

It was incredible!

[Cry Havoc]

To be fair, Timmy did most of his damage with Shaq on the bench, but when Shaq was in at the end, Timmy still came through.

Greatest PF ever.


Shaq was on the bench because he can't play defense without fouling.

[Avitus1]

Timmy proves why he is the best at what he does.

[ClingingMars]

I WENT BALLISTIC WHEN HE MADE THE 3! I WAS SURE IT WASN'T GONNA GO IN!!!

HELL YEAH!!!

- Mars

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Bow to him. Fetch him grapes. Fan him with leaves. He is Timothy F. Duncan.

[T Park]

Tim

if i ever get married

you father the child.

[GrandeDavid]

Sensational game!!! Sadly it wasn't freaking televized in Brazil. But Tuesday's game will be. What a helluva game. I hope someone in my family or a friend recorded this game for me.

[WalterBenitez]

:downspin: that 3 drives me crazy .... he has better stats than Horry :lmao

[Creation88]

awesome.

[ducks]

wonder what sun paper will say tomorrow
I thought oneal owned duncan

[MaNuMaNiAc]

After that three I was jumping, screaming, throwing shit, you name it! Tim's three has to be top 3 in my book, specially because it was against the Suns :lmao DAMN! I love that guy!

[SpursPreacher]

The preacher says praise the word of duncan,give him the true respect that the best player in league deserves so says the book of spur,can I get an AMEN !!!

[ShoogarBear]

To be fair, Timmy did most of his damage with Shaq on the bench, but when Shaq was in at the end, Timmy still came through.

Greatest PF ever.

Yeah, although when Shaq was in in the second half:
-Manu and Tony finally stepped up
-Tim knew when to step back
-The Spurs started cutting into the lead.

Tim kept them in the game--hell, kept them in the arena--in the first half, then picked his spots brilliantly in the second half.

[PlayoffEx-static]

Funny Suns fan thought raggedy-ass regular season Tim would be there today.

Silly rabbit.

[timvp]

All things considered, has to be one of his top five games ever.

Holy sh!t.

No one should ever even consider Duncan's regular season play again. He was a whole new animal today.

[ShoogarBear]

FORTY.

Five.

[timvp]

Tim kept them in the game--hell, kept them in the arena--in the first half, then picked his spots brilliantly in the second half.Exactly. That was the brilliance of this performance. He could have gone for sixty but he knew he wasn't going to be able to win the game by himself. He let others get rolling and then knew exactly when it was his time.

As far as basketball IQ and team instincts, this was an off the charts performance by Duncan.

[lefty]

Paul who?

Kobe who?

We still have the best player in the game

[FlAVaK]

FORTY.
Five.
45?!?
next game :spin

[T Park]

Wow IMO this is up there with the huge performance in game 6 against the Lakers in LA to win the series in 03.

[ShoogarBear]

All things considered, has to be one of his top five games ever.

Holy sh!t.

No one should ever even consider Duncan's regular season play again. He was a whole new animal today.

I was worried because any game from him like this in regular season, and especially in the playoffs, usually means a loss.

And be honest, how many of you were thinking 0.4* after he hit the three?
*raises hand*

[SpurAddict561]

I Fuckin Cried When He Hit That 3

No Lie

[PlayoffEx-static]

Oh, and thank GOD we have no game until Tuesday. Look at the minutes. Duncan and Tony over fifty and Manu at forty five. :wow

[J.T.]

We need to name the trifecta of Finley's 4th quarter 3, Duncan's OT 3, and Manu's game winner.

[PlayoffEx-static]

I was worried because any game from him like this in regular season, and especially in the playoffs, usually means a loss.

Wouldn't that involve Phoenix having someone clutch?

[PlayoffEx-static]

The FinDagger, The Big Fundamental Bomb, and Argentina Hot Sauce.

[polandprzem]

And you know what the F stands for. :fro

Ferdinand?

I thought his second name was Theodore

[boutons_]

Enjoy Tim while you can.

It's the Golden Age of Spurs' basketball.

[Borosai]

After Duncan made that 3, I was thinking please don't lose this game and waste that shot. Amazing performance.

[duncan228]

Duncan is the reason I watch this game. There is no one like him. I knew he would rise, but this performance was incredible. I've said it here a few times, we haven't seen anything from him like we will this post-season. He wants the repeat. He'll get it. I've always believed in Duncan.

His line today:
40 points (16-24)
15 boards, 6 offensive
5 assists
3 blocks
1 steal
7-12 FT's
4 TO's

It's now 6:48am here, around 6 when he hit that shot. I think I let out a scream, and was hoping my neighbors wouldn't hear me. :lol

[MI21]

I was thinking .4 the whole fucking time.

Also, I've always considered myself a heterosexual man who was very confident with his sexuality. Tim Duncan, in his beautiful glory makes me question that.

:lol

[carina_gino20]

http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x282/duncan228/duncan_therecanonlybeone.jpg

When they show that commercial, they should just put Timmy in there. Just him. The other person will be blinded by his brilliance.

[PlayoffEx-static]

Enjoy Tim while you can.

It's the Golden Age of Spurs' basketball.

The playoff countdown is at 5 and descending. Most of you peeps need to stop sweating the small stuff and enjoy the legend. There will be PLENTY of time AND reason to bitch when Tim retires.

[foodie2]

My poor old dog, who is completely deaf, woke up when Tim made that shot--because I screamed so loud.

[ShoogarBear]

Oh, and thank GOD we have no game until Tuesday. Look at the minutes. Duncan and Tony over fifty and Manu at forty five. :wow

Yeah, that worries me some as well. And other than Thomas, it's not like we're going to get a lot from the bench. Hopefully Brent will be able to go a good 15 minutes.

[Texas_Ranger]

The guy's just amazing!

[JPB]

I followed the game here in Paris through fox sports "game live" refreshing every 30 seconds.

spurs were down by 3 with 20s to go then, it's a tie game and I see : "last scoring play" T. Duncan.
I was like "oh, he got an "and one".

I switch to ST where people going crazy with Duncan's three.

I didn't even start to imagine it could have been a 3.

Insane.

[sa21]

Duncan is so awesome!!!!!

[polandprzem]

www.espn.com

I don't belive it !!!! :wow:

[makedamnsure]

Officially naming my kid after Tim. We are absolutely blessed to witness his greatness.

[boutons_]

Imagine if Tim had played the first half as shitty as all the other Spurs.

He's the Rock upon which the Spurs are built.

[ShoogarBear]

www.espn.com (http://www.espn.com)

I don't belive it !!!! :wow:

If this one doesn't go on their Instant Classics lineup, they should just trash the whole thing.

[dbreiden83080]

Boy Shaq's D just rattled Duncan didn't it???? :hat

[BiZNicK]

I'm still not over that three

Duncan is back ladies.....watch out

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I like how all the other NBA fans watching that national game, can't say ANYTHING ABOUT DUNCAN AT ALL, they just have to sit back and shut up at how good Duncan is.

and realize how they've been forgetting one more guy in addition to Lebron and Kobe talks about the "Best player in the league" label.

[dbreiden83080]

Duncan is the reason I watch this game. There is no one like him. I knew he would rise, but this performance was incredible. I've said it here a few times, we haven't seen anything from him like we will this post-season. He wants the repeat. He'll get it. I've always believed in Duncan.

Duncan=Legend

The media can kiss Kobe's ass all they want Duncan is still the best player in the NBA.

[carina_gino20]

In case anyone missed this, Duncan's all over the place now.

http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/1041/timmiracleli0.jpg

[Quasar]

I was afraid Nash was gonna hit a 2 after Tim's 3... Dude is really nails. That's a guy I respect, despite his lack of defense!

I agree with Tim when he once said that he wished Nash would win one before retiring.

As long as he wins it in 2009 or 2010 as the Spur's back up PG! :D

[1Parker1]

Sick. That game was absolutely sick. It personfied why fans of the Spurs are proud of the team. It's not just things like Tim's unselfishness and willpower to win and do anything to get it done. It's not just their constant execution in the crunch time. It's not just the fact that Pop knew to angle Finley just right on the inbounds pass and Bowen knew just how to deny the ball from Nash that forced the Suns to call a TO and use their last one. It's not just that Pop was smart not to call a TO with time dwindling down and let Ginobili handle the game and go for the winning layup.

Spurs are the smartest team in the league. Their execution down to the tiniest of details like inbounds passing and plays outside of Timeouts is absolutely sick.

Amazing. So proud to be a Spurs fan right now. Winning the right way. :tu

[Manu20]

In case anyone missed this, Duncan's all over the place now.

That wan not a miracle shot, it is what you call skill.:worthy:

[makedamnsure]

I don't call it a miracle, he shot it well. It wasn't a crazy circus shot like half of Nash's are.

[DDS4]

I loved the moment near the end of the 2nd overtime when the Spurs needed the last stop. TD had a word to say to the entire Spur bench. Every player dropped what they were doing and listened to him and huddled forward to hear him.

THAT my friends is a leader. Imagine how far this man has come since 1998...

Beautiful. :fro

[Budkin]

One of the best TD performances of all time... and the 3 was just classic.

[Budkin]

Guess shooting those 3s with Beno in warm ups previous years paid off!

[1Parker1]

:tu I remember seeing that and thought the same exact thing.

[Ronaldo McDonald]

I've never been as captivated by a game in my life. This was just a fantastic game. I couldn't have imagined a more entertaining game, much less expect it.

[duncan228]

Guess shooting those 3s with Beno in warm ups previous years paid off!

Duncan was in a trash talking 3 point shoot out with an assistant coach before the Jazz game. That paid off too. :)

[polandprzem]

By the way people

Game 3 is on 25th of April - who's got birthday on that day?

[polandprzem]

PS. Tim is making 3pointers on practices and he trains them like everybody else on the team.
Just to remind few of you

Beautiful. :fro

It's his team, it has been since '03. It's easy to overlook that, he's quiet about it. He has gotten more vocal in his leadership, it's been wonderful to watch his growth as a leader.

[duncan228]

By the way people

Game 3 is on 25th of April - who's got birthday on that day?

He'll be 32. Still in his prime. I think he's got at least a couple more Championships in him. :)

[duncan228]

Oh...Thanks for starting the thread ShoogarBear. I appreciate it. :)

[samikeyp]

And be honest, how many of you were thinking 0.4* after he hit the three?
*raises hand*

me. :depressed :lol

[Mark in Austin]

Classic performance. Tim showed me today that he is still improving his game - I don't think I've ever seen him so mentally tough.

[tp2021]

And be honest, how many of you were thinking 0.4* after he hit the three?

for a split second, i heard shaq saying "one lucky shot deserves another" but i knew that the spurs would hold. did you see that form? the gooseneck? that was not luck, my friends. that was a cold-blooded assassin.

i am right there with you. everyone was meandering around, and he said HEY and everyone collapsed into his lap practically. i sure hope there are pictures of that.

[Budkin]

My heart is still beating fast from that game. Wow.

[BiZNicK]

Well I'm glad to see the Spurs in the spotlight for a bit...and getting some respect.

[1Parker1]

:lol I love ESPN's headline on the video recap to this game; "Spurs need 2OT to slip by Suns in Game 1."

TD is the best

Never doubt him never

It wasn't the first time Duncan did a miracle shot, but this time we will be happy to remember it. And I'm sure it won't be the last time that Duncan proves why he is the best PF ever. This game showed why he will always be the MVP. :flag:

[xtremesteven33]

i posted this video after the Spurs lost to the suns at home 3 weeks ago to remind spurs fans who we have and most Spurstalkers laughed and said "Yea that was years ago....he doesnt have it anymore....hes too old....."

now what??

I'm happy to remember his miracle shots even if they lost the game.
He is the best PF to ever play, and he's always my MVP.
There has never been another one quite like him, and I doubt there ever will be. He's not only a brilliant player, he's a class act on and off the court.

[tp2021]

tim is such a muthafuckin G, that when michelle tafoya asked him about his 3-point shot, he GIGGLED.
mama, how do you stop that man? he's crazy!

We need to name the trifecta of Finley's 4th quarter 3, Duncan's OT 3, and Manu's game winner.

Triple Sunset?

Triple Sunset?

Nice. :lol Save it for after the series win.

come on!

I don't think Homecourt in a Suns-Spurs series factors in. These games have been like this since 2005.

[greens]

Timmy is the man!

40 pts! A clutch 3 pointer! Seriously, one of his best games!

[urunobili]

one of the best performances i have ever witnessed from a basketball player taking over a game... saying Jordanesque could be insulting for timmy... Duncanesque is the right word

[Joe Schmoogins]

Mad props to Tim. He just dominated every aspect of the game. He played smart, and he basically decided there was no way they were going to lose this game. All things considered, I was blown away by his performance which is crazy because I've been watching him since day one. I should expect these types of things from him by now. When I think about it, it's Duncan vs. Amare and Shaq. That's Tim Duncan vs. possibly two future hofers... And he destroyed them as if he was playing against a spoiled high school kid and 60 yo ymca gym rat. What a man.

[greens]

Seriously, Timmy is the man in this game.

[Spuradicator]

Best performance of the season..........so far.

[duncan228]

You know I like you Dirk. I love your passion for your team and your Mavs fever smack. But I'm a little surprised. I thought you were the type to give props where props were due. And Duncan is due props for his performance today.

[Crookshanks]

I just LOVE the expression on Timmy's face - it shows what a fierce competitor he is. And I just wonder what those naysayers think - you know, the ones who say Timmy is boring, he never shows emotion... yada, yada, yada!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Best performance of the season..........so far.

Duncan228 look at what I said in the Mavs/Hornets game thread. That tells you what I think about #21 from the spurs. ;)

[charmie21]

I wasn't given the chance to watch this sensational game because we have no effing cable.. but reading your posts guys, and watching the video of Timmy's 3-pointer in youtube, still give me the goosebumps.. I wish I could've witnessed the actual game.. But hell..

I'm still so proud, so proud to be one of the millions of supporters of this ball club, and of the greatest power forward ever in the league.

I love our San Antonio Spurs.
I love our Timmy D!

[beachwood]

Enjoy Tim while you can.

It's the Golden Age of Spurs' basketball.

Amen to that. He is a gift from the Basketball Gods.

How lucky are we to have him on our team?

rockets/spurs's fan

[ShoogarBear]

Listening to the Hornets/Mavs game reminds me: I didn't hear once during the game Spur fans doing the "MVP" chant.

'Cause it's just expected. :fro

[peskypesky]

"Duncan's over-rated"
"Duncan's too old"
"Duncan's scared of Shaq"

FUCK THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
40 POINTS!
15 REBOUNDS!
5 ASSISTS!
3 BLOCKS!

AND A FREAKING 3-POINTER!

TIM FREAKING DUNCAN RULES THE NBA. HE IS THE LORD OF THE RINGS.

[duncan228]

"Duncan's scared of Shaq"

:lmao I think that's the one that got me the most. Like Duncan is intimidated by anyone at this stage of his career. He sure shut the haters up today.

[1Parker1]

Listening to the Hornets/Mavs game reminds me: I didn't hear once during the game Spur fans doing the "MVP" chant.

'Cause it's just expected. :fro

:lmao You're so right. In fact, I can't remember the last time (even last postseason) I heard the fans at the AT&T center chant MVP. Do they just not like to do that there?

[ShoogarBear]

I'm sure they'll do it during the Finals. :smokin

[peskypesky]

I wasn't given the chance to watch this sensational game because we have no effing cable.. but reading your posts guys, and watching the video of Timmy's 3-pointer in youtube, still give me the goosebumps.. I wish I could've witnessed the actual game..

Dude, let me tell you, it was UNBELIEVABLE the way Timmy played today. He was the ONLY Spur who was bringing it in the first half, and the team looked down and out, but he would NOT lose this game to the Suns. I know just how great the man is. I've watched him win 4 Championships. I've seen him win 3 Finals MVP's and two regular season MVP's. But today, today, he absolutely BLEW MY MIND with his greatness. I am still in shock.
:lobt::lobt::lobt::lobt::lobt2:

[MONTENEGRINO]

Well, it's hard to describe how happy was I when Timmy made that 3pt... I love Tim Duncan. For me, he is the greatest big man ever. Period.

[duncan228]

But today, today, he absolutely BLEW MY MIND with his greatness. I am still in shock.

I finally caught my breath. It's a good day to be a Duncan fan. :)

[charmie21]

The Spurs Organization, and of course, us fans, are so BLESSED to have Timmy as our core foundation, leader, and icon.

Whew, I love being a spurs fan. I just purely lurve it!

[TampaDude]

After he made that shot, I was just, "Oh, my Lord. Oh, my Lord."

It was incredible!

+1

I was SCREAMING Oh...my...GOD!!!

Seriously, that has to go down as one of the greatest clutch shots in NBA history...TD WANTS THAT FIFTH RING!!! :lobt2:

[gameFACE]

Best Spur Ever.

Everyone was saying how this was going to be the best series of Round 1 but I really didn't expect this for starters. Tim gave everyone notice that he truly is one bad mutherfucker.
:fro

[peskypesky]

Tim is a pimp.

[peskypesky]

Artest explained: "I remember one time Kevin Garnett was mushing him, and shoving him in the face; and Tim Duncan didn't do anything, he didn't react. He just kicked Kevin Garnett's a--, and won the damn championship. You know what I'm sayin'? That's gangsta. Everybody can show emotion, dunk on somebody, scream and be real cocky; but Tim Duncan is a ... he's a pimp."

[dbreiden83080]

I think Tim is mega motivated for this series and i knew all the Shaq can check me one on one crap was going to piss him off. I told Suns fans they better be worried about all that talk because Duncan as a competitor was going to come out with fire in his eyes looking to silence that crap. Shaq didn't do much at all on him, if anything it shows that Shaq is going to have a nightmare staying out of foul trouble being aggressive in the paint trying to block shots and checking Tim when Tim takes it right to him. Just a genius of a performance by Duncan today, truly "What greatness is all about"

[BiZNicK]

There's no doubt about it, the Spurs are in the Suns' kitchen. They're making themselves at home, cooking up breakfast, having waffle fights, spilling the orange juice, and peeing in the silverware drawer just for the hell of it. And the Suns can't stop them.
