Spurs @ Knicks Feb. 8 - Game Blog

Bottom line for me is Id rather have us play ty in the first half than in the second half (or overtime). Tim and Manu are playing too many minutes and I put that down to crap play by Bonner and Elson. Everyone else is doing fine.

As did the Spurs. That is one team I literally cant hate. I know they had the #1 pick and got Duncan while we got Billups (who sucked at the time) and that piece of Ron Mercer but that is what the lottery is about... probability but unpredictable. They are too god damn classy especially Pop. I wanted Duncan sooo bad. I loved watching him in college and I knew especially after his first year, he was going to turn that franchise around. I would walk around downtown Boston wearing all Giants gear (and risk getting my ass beat) if it meant Duncan being a Celt.

wow now I understand how Duncan meant to Boston.

KG is almost a carbon copy of TD, defensively and offensively. I don't mind Boston winning a ring if we can't make it in the 2008 finals. Let's keep on cheering for our teams, who knows we'll meet in June.

Not true. KG and Duncan are both fantastic power forwards, but they are the inverse of each other.

KG is versatile, but he likes to play outside in.

TD is dominant and will mix it up on the block.

That is why I would always take TD over KG.

I don't care if my big man can run the point. I want him down on the block punishing the other teams bigs.

Duncan>>>>>>>KG. I love KG but he isnt the type of player to take the Tim Duncan role. KG isnt that type of player. The main ultimate leader of our big 3 is Paul Pierce.

[Yuixafun]

Yup. I can't imagine a team with Tim Duncan healthy ever missing the playoffs. KG only been out of the first round once, not to mention failing to make it his last 2 years in Minni.

Only problem with Pierce is he can sometimes get sucked into that mano y mano mode. I'm glad he's having fun playing basketball again though. He was in dark place for a couple years.
