blair to take duncan place

"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 ass, 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 y; but Tim Duncan is a ... he's a pimp."

Blair will hit a 4 in. growth spurt before he is 24. Book it.

I've wondered about that being he is only 20 years old. He could possibly grow at least another 2 inches in height by the time he's 22.

I hope Blair doesn't scare away Splitter.

true
actually ian play will effect splitter more

The problem with this statement is that he's putting up nearly the same numbers.

As I said, when Duncan is gone... it's clear, they're fighting for a playoff spot, not a championship.

are you kidding?

you must not remember young Tim Duncan, to suggest he's still at that level is an insult to how great he was.

and 19-10 is not the same as 23-12
especially when you consider that the offense ran through him, he created shots for other players before TP and Manu took over those duties. now he gets shots created for him.

when he retires
tp and blair and ?
= more les when duncan retires

whoa there sparky, I think Blair will be good, very good, but I'm not ready to pronounce him Duncan-good. Duncan is a franchise player, Duncan is a HOF lock, Duncan is one of the best defensive and offensive players ever to play the game.

I'd be satisfied if Blair is Malik Rose-good. I'm not saying I'd turn it away if he turned out to be Duncan-good, but I'm not expecting that, either.
