Duncan's getting a divorce?

Some people let their lives play out very publicly, and the neighbors all know about the marital problems from the shouting out on the front lawn. But private people -- which Tim and Amy obviously are -- aren't like that. This could be some kind of problem that's been there off and on for years, and we'd never know about it. Or maybe she was banking on finally having him around all the time by now instead of gone for half the year, but then he goes and has a career renaissance in his late 30s and wants to keep playing, and it led to too much fighting. It certainly doesn't have to be some kind of cheating thing.

I feel bad for them and their kids, and I hope everybody comes out of this ok. But we don't really know any details, they pretty clearly don't want us to know any, and I feel fine respecting their privacy and not worrying about what the details actually are.

What a faggot. I bet Amy got tired of his ugly lanky ass and beta male personality. The gay ass tramp stamp he had was probably a factor too. If Tim wasn't rich he would be pulling 4s at best. Good for Amy, now she can find someone in her league and move out of that shithole San Antonio

Tons of comments on the EN story bashing them. I want to do the same but at the same time it's just giving them clicks. Wish there was another way to let EN how fucked up it is they broke this to national media now. I've seen some good comments about people cancelling their subscriptions.

well I'm gonna have to say. Good riddance. And great timing.

Tony started playing like MVParker right after his divorce. Duncan will follow suit imo.

If you confirm it without offering details, it helps get the facts out there -- and the story over with -- quicker. Stonewalling just makes it a bigger story while the media keeps digging.

Now the only way the media has to keep the story alive is to dig up dirt from people close to the Duncans who are willing to talk out of school, and I'm not sure that will be easy to do. And it's not like he's a huge tabloid name anyway, so they have less incentive to keep digging than they do for someone with a more hyped name.

Confirm the story fast, starve the media for additional details, let it die as quickly as possible.

TMZ doesn't get shit if Miami Herald boy doesn't dig this shit up for the EN.

Tim is a celebrity, and like the mayor if he's getting a divorce people want to know. There was a thread made here about it (a few actually) so let's not throw rocks from the lawn of our glass houses.

I was just messin with ya. Just thought about him doing it in that video. :lol

I just hope Ginobili divorces before the playoffs are over. His game really needs it. :lol

Just wait until ESPN gets ahold of it:

"Welcome to Sportscenter. Tonight's top story: Tim Duncan and his wife Amy are getting divorced. We now go to Miami for ESPN's exclusive interview with Lebron James to get his reaction to the news."

Seriously though, any of the theories put forth so far could be right (as could just about any combination of those factors). Short of Amy writing a tell all book I think we might as well get used to the idea of not knowing.

FUCK EN just put it on their front page. They're loving this pub

I usually don't agree with you on here because it is usually just Spurs hate from you but RG3 is a beast, you are correct.

They got the Nando complaints on there too.

Local media doing its best to be a distraction during the WCF.

I guess local media is buying into the "any/negative publicity is good publicity"

probably more like 1/3 of the year. with the spurs you have the 41 road games, about 5 in the preseason and then about 6 or 8 (sometimes more) in the playoffs. if you give 2 days to each of the games that is about 110 days of the year on the road.

...but she knew this going in so i would be surprised if this was the reason. unless he had promised to retire at a certain point.

This.

All local media facebook pages getting torched in the comments when they posted about this. So then Fox29 thought they were smart so they approached it by posting the story, but adding "should Tim have his privacy or is his divorce worth discussing". Nice try Fox29, I'm not fooled.

Like I said, scumbags.
