Timmy's only 3 blocks away from tying Kareem now. He should have it before this series it over for sure, possibly as early as game 4.
As for why Duncan didn't get any DOPY awards. . .whoever votes for that stuff is too busy giving it to the guy with the most blocks or the highest combined blocks/steals, not the actual best defensive players. This year I think Chandler was pretty deserving of it though.
Having a lot of blocks = center now? That's news to me.
Duncan's been playing C the last few years, but DRob was obviously our center 'til he retired (so that's the first 6 years of Duncan's career), and we had quite a few real centers patrolling the paint in the meantime too until about 2008-2009. Duncan's pretty much had to play C on defense out of neccessity lately because we can't draft or sign any decent C's since all the good draft pick centers get grabbed up right away and nobody wants to play here unless we pay them more than anyone else will and we just don't have the cash. :\
