anybody else? :depressed
Not really
Felt relieved since he looked ready to hang them up...
Yeah man.
But he accomplished so much in the NBA.
Couldn't ask more of him.
Yea. Got a little emotional. Tim's a legend. Hope he has one more.Quote:

Just LOVE him
I just thought Manu had more of a retirement vibe about him when he fouled out, and I wouldn't be surprised if Tim hasn't made up his mind at all.
Maybe none of them have?
Meh
He will retire super rich
It's not like he dieded or something
Stop crying
It sucks that Porker sabotaged Tim's last chance at a title for his own ego. That selfish faggot really can't stand seeing any of his teammates shine.
Game 5 is the one that hurt. This one was a foregone conclusion.
So long Tim, and thanks for all the fish!

This baby is going to turn into a monster. Tim and Manu will come back and you'll have to watch them die every year for the next 3 years. You all thought Tim would go out a champ, like he'd walk away from money but he'll come back and be the relic off the bench that Pop is forced to play because he's Tim Duncan. Think Bill Russell on the LOB stage when people are trying to get him the fuck off of it, just hanging around. That's going to be Tim.

I have a great idea: next year should be a Farewell Tour (a la Kobe) for the Big 3 together.
I agree we should tank tbhQuote:

Why he did that mistake not retiring last season? I didn't thought Tim will be like all those who not know when to retire... With this season now he he walking down in most humiliating way, fuck it, it killing me...
Crapped the bed in game five...beggars can't be choosers.Quote:

We can all hope his last moments on the court left him unfulfilled and wanting to run it back one more time. He looked done earlier this series but came into his own by the end.
He smiled, so I smiled, he's at peace with what happened, I will be too...eventually
Nope. Did my crying after 5.
I was begging him to come back the entire time.
Onions man, onions
:lolQuote:

i didnt think i would but had to leave the room where people were to be alone and let loose some tears for like 30 secs. very emotional. not so much sad we lost but sad its over for him. spent my entire teen and adult life watching tim. i fuckin love him. thanks for everything!!
Well Timmy will be back nxt yr so get use to him being here....Timmy ain't going no where...
Was like watching a movie as he walked away from the court...:depressed

I think our small weaknesses, enlarged this series by Pop you could say, are rather obvious and with a few tweaks we'll be great again.
I would love for both Tim and Manu to be on board once again. They still make us better and you can't better than those two for less money.
Timmy to the end. Still a star.
Me too. I criedQuote:

I think Pop, everyone would gladly take him back though frankly he hasn't looked good for a long time and he had the 0 point 0 rebound games this season. Age has caught up. I'd like him as an assistant coach if he does retire and we might have a vacancy the way Messsina is getting interviews.Quote:

welled up watching him leave through the tunnel...felt like it would be the last time I saw #21 leave the court
What the point? To come back only to another playoff dissepointment as this team will much likely collapse once again under the pressure...Quote:

Cry, no. Sulking, fighting back tears all night yes. It's the end of an era, movement. Like watching a band live your whole life then seeing it without the lead singer...fucking sucks, so pissed
5 was when he retired not today
Sabotaged the team by being the #3 scorer on good shooting and dishing out more than double the assists of anyone else on the team. What a sabotage.Quote:

I don't think this is it. I can see him returning for 6 but in a reduced role ~10-15 minutes a night.
His defense is his only saving grace. It could all come down to that right knee.
Don't know why but the part that got me the most was seeing Nazr Mohammed call out to Timmy as he was turning and then seeing them hug. It was a reminder of all the great times, especially that epic 2005 title run.

I have been watching Tim for over 20 plus years since he was a sophomore at WF but I was actually happy with the way he left the floor. The ending was perfect for the player he was. He got to play out the whole entire 4th quarter and I thought it was cool how Pop respected Tim by not taking him out because knowing Tim he wouldn't have wanted a standing ovation. At the end Duncan seemed genuinely happy and reflective and because of that I could be at peace with it. The OKC players all gave him respect and even the crowd did as he exited in the tunnel. I also thought it was cool how Tim acknowledged the fans as we walked in the tunnel. Besides losing the ending was great. I hope he retires because outside of this game he was terrible in this series.

shit i cried like a lil bitch. if you're a real spurs fan i don't see how you could hold back the tears.
Tim didn't announce a retirement so no need for pomp and circumcision.Quote:
