Greatness, tbh... The ultimate pros and winners
26/7/3 for Manu
16/10/5/3 for Duncan
These two carried the Spurs in the mid 2000s. Ten years later and they're still carrying the team on their backs. 37 and 38 years old - amazing what they're doing at their age. It's too bad the front office never supplied them with a good third option during their prime years.

Greatest one-two punch to ever play the game of basketball.

only 2 games in 8 days he should kick ass the next couple of games
humm mj and pippin together kicked ass
Greatest spurs of all time. No one comes CLOSE.
Not at 37 and 38.
david robinson and george gervin o
at age 37 yes
Sure if you like losing. Winners are winners.
Robinson was already retired at Manu's age. Gervin was a recovering cocaine addict at age 37. The longevity we're seeing from Duncan and Manu is extraordinary. It's like Stockton and Malone but without the annual choking in the playoffs.
The Big 2, I like that. Manu gives me more chest pains and acid reflux than any other player, but no doubt he's my 3rd favorite Spur.
Hopefully they can hang around for another year, I don't see who would take over the leadership reigns.
these two are nice. better than the got PG that is sitting out games right now and saving himself for pointless summer basketball.

Thank you!!! The ignorance is thick....
The rings are thick too
Thought this was about Evans and Asik
robinson back was an issue
This, quit being a pussy Tony!
Robinson and Duncan the ultimate twin towers
WOAH, they have a top 50 guy in D Rob who basically saved the team and kept them in SA and first ballot HOF himself..... I disagree nobody COMING CLOSE, that is a little far fetched there. Gervin is up there as well, rings aside that guy was a great player and another HOF player. That CLOSE though is just a little too far. Tim Duncan, D Rob and then the rest. yeah.
I can't think of two players in any major sport that were both this old and still this good and playing together. Stockton and Malone is the only comparison I can think of, and as someone pointed out, they weren't coming off a championship (much less their 4th together).
Manu is great but there are nights he looks mortal. Those are so rare for Timmy.
I don't want either of them to retire after this year. Sign them both RC for 2 more years, with a player option on the second year.
I NEVER want them to retire to be honest! That will be a bad time in Spurs history when those two retire. I doubt they play another two years though, just have a hunch after this year one hangs it up or both or after next year but I don't see them playing two after this year especially Manu who looks old and slow more often than Tim does. Tim I can see maybe one or two more, Manu after this year or next though IMO is going to hang them up and chill with his family. I will cry when either retires no joke, those two are LEGENDS and it will be tough to watch a Spurs game without either. These guys made it easy to watch games without D ROB when he retired so hopefully we have guys who make it easy to watch games when they retire lord willing.
Very well said, very poignant and I 100% agree. I almost cried when D-Rob went out (actually welled up when he was leaving the game in 2003 Finals), and frankly, Timmy and Manu will be even tougher.
