You forgot to metntion porker in the low IQ list players.
analytics guy.
Of course dip Lakers fans are spinning this as "salt" (why would Duncan have any salt toward Kirby when he has more total MVPs, just as many rings [but more alpha dog rings], superior metrics, is ranked higher on pretty much every all-time list, and has more post-season records?), but it's obvious to me that Duncan has embraced the analytics trend over the past decade. Duncan has always lauded Lebron, gushed even, from the time Duncan told Lebron the NBA would be his league to Duncan picking Lebron on his all-time starting 5. And Lebron, unlike Kobe, is an analytics monster.
If you forced any analytics guy to be interviewed about Kobe, he'd react similarly to Duncan: Give cliched, but disinterested, lip service praise (he's a compe or; he brings his A game), but wouldn't go too far beyond that, like calling Kobe "the Michael Jordan of his generation," or "the ultimate closer," and other such nonsense. Lebron, another player who I'm sure follows analytics, pays Kobe the same backhanded praise in interviews.
Props to Duncan for not gushing like low IQ players (the Derrick Roses and Kevin Durants of the league).

OBSESSED
OK mate
Kobestan has been melting down all night about it. This on top of 12 has them gasping for air.analytics guy.

Spurfan making threads to boost their confidence since i shot that down
^12 talkin' tbh
Night guys. Got some business to handle. Keep up the good meltdowns so i can read them tomorrow
Duncan shot a load in LA and you laker fans are trying to spit it out,,,,
Tim Duncan is the nicest person on the planet. The fact that he couldn't even make up some bull to praise Kirby says it all about Kirbs.
Only gots run like Aids, Luva, and Thread,,,
Timmy is probably jealous Pop has been slobbering Kobe's knob for a while now
Mitch, you know better than that,,,,
crofl calculated bombs
If you find you can't sleep just relax your mind and count backwards from 12.
Wow dude really? The heat is brought on and you want to high tail it out of Vegas?
Notice that aids, luva, and thread arent here,,,,laker fans are pussies through an through,,,,
“I’m here to play a game and win a game. I’m not worried about that stuff,” Duncan said when asked what it was like to face Bryant a final time. “He’s a great compe or over the years, but this wasn’t about him. It was about us trying to get back on track.”
I think Parker has a high bball IQ, but his vanity and primadonna personality sometimes override his intelligence (when Parker doesn't get caught up in heroball and dribble-dribble-dribble, it's a thing of beauty to watch him run the Spurs offense, even if he is a comparatively weak playmaker compared to other great PGs). So yeah, makes sense he loves Kirby, whose cultural image Parker no doubt envies.
Tim is thinking about this season, he still has one. Kobe's "love me" tour is Kobe's business and the Spurs played along per NBA request in SA, but there's no reason to continue that when Kobe walks off the floor before the end of the game and leaves the court. I hope he dies in a grease fire.
Parker took the Kobe/Tim last meeting narrative and made it "Tony Parker" night. He does that. He's a front runner. However he's also someone who has to play in a system. He follows orders to the letter, like Theron Grayjoy (sp?) who'd been flayed and was not about to go against his captor's wishes. Pop flayed Tony years ago.
Duncan may or may not be mad ... but you bottom es are salty as getting happy over last night ...
Bottom?
