How did Ludden manage to find so many quotes from Pop and the SPurs? And their own beatwriters recycle quotes?

I think it is serious, and I guess there's lots of sizes. I'm trying to get an idea of the weight that would be appropriate for that kind of training.

Probably serious. It is a type of crossfit workout. He was probably flipping it and not throwing it though.

They weigh several hundred pounds. Duncan should probably have been using one that weighed more than 600.

this is heavy ... even ducks fall short compared to your hate for Manu... get real

Never said I hated Manu. Like Pop says, Id rather have Manu in my foxhole then anyone else. I totally agree with Pop on that statement. Noone plays with the fire Manu plays with. Hes the man who makes this team a contender, and is the man who changes things in game situations.

It's not Manu's fault that other players do not start them up like he does... making him responsible for your future failure predictions u made goes beyond lame... you definitively don't need to start a "he was authorized to play" conclusion kind of discussion...

Thanks for the info.

If he was doing what I think he was doing, then 600 would be about right for Tony Parker according to what I've read. Not sure what the scale up for Tim would be.

The workout basically entails a tire lying on it's side. You pick up one side, lift that side until the tires upright, then push it over and do it again.

All I know from first hand information is the last time I was around a true tractor tire (back when I was like 8 years old), I could lift any part of it.

So 'throwing' isn't the right word? I don't know anything about this, I appreciate your info.

George Hill, the rookie who’s starting in place of Parker, has the potential to be “one of the best defenders to come into the league at his position,” Popovich thinks.

Thanks polandprzem.

Duncan, too, has surprised some of his new teammates. “I didn’t know he had so much personality,” Mason said.

I'm glad to see Mason is fitting right in with the Spurs' sardonic, biting, deadpan style of communications.

I don't really know much either. I had heard of it before, but I'm not much of an excercise person other than occassionally lifting weight. I just did some research on it this morning after the article was posted.

Nice to know I'm not the only one that got curious about it.

Happens to me a lot. I'm the master of trivia among my friends. They always call me whenever they have a weird question they can't find the answer to. Half the time I know it, most of the rest I can find the answer in 5 minutes on the 'net (I'm really good at websearching apparently).

A lot of times I'll read something and then spend 3 hours researching some obscur part of it that interested me.

I could say the same things, as long as we add Duncan's name to the mastering. It's things related to him that I hold the record for among my friends.
