Congratulations! We have a psychologist!
I also seem to recall Game 5 and 7 in which Duncan played well (sans the missed FTs). Sometimes, leading a team to championships are just not enough, it is so much tougher to lose in the 1st round SEVEN years in a row. I mean, damn!

Re: I hate to admit it but...
Bunch of douchebags. Tim is a winner. Has been since Wake Forest. What has KG done? If he's soooo good and hasnt had the supporting cast, then go to another team.
I'll take Tim anyday of the week.

Re: I hate to admit it but...
First all, i think theres a difference playing hurt and playing stupid. If your out there with PF that's just dumb. Can't wait to to find out what you guys think when he tears it and is done for the season. Second off all, the whole supporting cast is about as BS as an in-touch liberal. How many played D? Moron forgot to mention that Wally had a career altering injury the year he was an all star too. As for the fouls on KG, that's another gripe i have. No wonder you guys love to watch the pistons match up. What is allowed on the defensive end is totally different than the offensive end when it comes to those two teams. The reputation is there so thats whats allowed. I do realize it takes time but hopefully if these guys grind it out like the've been doing maybe it'll change. Of course KG played like it was personall, he can't rely on Horry or Finley to bail him out. The reason why he's loved so much is he plays like that every game. He's like Madsen with skill.
I do love though how inept your FT shooting must be if EVERY SINGLE FT shot when KG straighten's his body up really quick that you guys missed. Seriouslly, you guys have a FT coach, don't you? Did they ever think of putting distractions in there at practice? Does a brick sign or those little slapstick things throw their A game off?
FWIW, the game was a complete turnaround whenever KG wasn't in the game. That does'nt show up in the boxscore. team defense was worse. The second shot by Horry is a good example. I heard the announcer's saying Griffen didn't close out good enough. It was McCants fault though for going for Barry's? pump fake and griffen slightly rotated to help out after he started driving. Simple things like that aren't taking into account.

Didn't Duncan lead the Spurs with 26/19? and created double teams so that Horry get open 3 after open 3? It helps that Horry nailed those shots, and was a major contributor in the game, but to say that Duncan was bailed out in that game by Horry shows absolutely no knowledge of the game (or if you are ESPN broadcasters, which I assume have at least SOME level of knowledge of the game to get the job, but talks to the level of unknowledgable sports fans to keep their jobs).

I don't even know what your first sentence means.
As far as being "out there with PF" being just dumb...WTF? This condition doesn't go away, usually, without surgery. Most people who have it learn to live with it, even basketball players. There are treatments that alleviate the pain somewhat, but if Tim is going to stop playing because of PF, his career would probably be over unless he opted for the surgery (and the heel spurs usually come back, even after surgery). It's not a life-ending condition, and it's better at times than at others (when you have a flare-up). Do you even know what plantar faciitis is?
As for you not being able to wait to find out what we will think "when he tears it and is done for the season"...um...tears WHAT?

And Horry was making mistakes all 3 and a half of quarter...
Chamberlain was better (average) in the battle between him and Russell.

It's really rare that that happens. As long as they are taking care of Tim's, controlling the inflammation around the spur, it probably won't happen. Wishful thinking on your part?

No, I don't know anything about PF other than it ended Todd McCollough's career, and I think my little sister has it and got some better shoes to alleviate the pain. People on here said it can tear, hopefully it doesnt.

I have it. My Mom has it. My Grandmother had it and her father, my Great-Grandfather had it. My brother has it and my sister may have it; I have two cousins that have it. They say it "probably" isn't hereditary, but????
We all have different degrees (of pain). Good shoes help; there are appliances you can put in the heel of your shoes that help (Mom used one of these for awhile). Lots of things help. They have treatments for it today that seem like miracles. I don't know anyone personally who has had the surgery, but I've been told that if it gets bad enough to get to that point, your life is never the same. So far, I've been lucky enough to be able to live with it.

Why don't we talk about garnett playing like shit in the past few games and bricking shots in the clutch while Duncan was posting a 27/22 game and send it to overtime against the clippers a couple of nights ago.
KG couldn't defend Duncan when Tim finally decided to show a little agressiveness in the POST last night.
I hate this one game conclusions about a player's reputation, specially when comparing Tim to a "franchise" player that has only seen the WCF once in a 10 year career.
malone > KG

Re: I hate to admit it but...
PF + triple teams = bad night for Duncan.
Not the first or last time we'll see it, so be happy we have a team that can compensate.

Sometimes he just flakes out on us and somebody just happens to save his butt examples:in the finals it was Horry today it was finley. If he keeps playing soft like he did today, even the coaches won't vote him into the ASG.
I looked this plantar fascia thing up. It's a bone spur on the bottom of the heel. I've had bone spurs on the back of my heel and I cant begin to tell you how much they hurt. They inflame the nerve endings. I guarantee you that a bone spur can make it impossible to walk, much less play basketball. I suppose the shot helped, but TD has my admiration for even going out on the court.
