Fvck the Olympics.
I don't live in SA. Apparantly was reported in local radio newscast. He was grabbing the left knee and limped off the court in the middle of the practice.He was also worked on by doctors. Can somebody shed more light on this ?
Fvck the Olympics.
Where do you live?
I haven't heard this, but I haven't been watching TV today.
Anyone else?
this is one reason why nba pro players should not go
There was a video of him shown limping off court on a local TV broadcast. Got that info from another messageboard.
well this sucks.. i hate to say this but this is the reason i don't like any of the nba players especially spurs players to be representing their countries or whatever.... i think i pretty much agree with mark cuban in this point..
tim duncan, tony parker (in the future when he plays for France) and manu ginobili will all be jacked up when the season starts... all that wear and tear playing all year round will shorten their player's careers pretty fast..
the spurs might as well hand over the nba finals trophy now..
I think you are jumping the gun a little bit... or a lot.the spurs might as well hand over the nba finals trophy now..
Until I hear a medical diagnosis, I'm not worried about Duncan. He limps off the court and holds his knee, ankles, head, etc. all the time. He checks for blood 100 times if he gets hit. He's not exactly a psychological iron man in regards to getting banged around.
I'm not saying that there's nothing wrong with him, but I'd like to wait and see before writing off Team USA ... and of course before writing off the Spurs season.
Thank you.He's not exactly a psychological iron man in regards to getting banged around.
Tim Duncan is not a soft compe or by any means but he is a massive when it comes to getting banged up. I don't think I've ever seen a guy lie on a basketball court for ten minutes after being poked in the eye.
Anyways, he's a basketball player, they're all wimps.
Apparently, you didn't see the US-Turkey game. I had never seen a group of players acting like the Turkish players did.I don't think I've ever seen a guy lie on a basketball court for ten minutes after being poked in the eye.
Very true, Princess.
After watching that Turkey game, Hedo all of a sudden made sense. Actually, it seems like Hedo is Turkey's version of Superman.
Didn't see the game, but I'll take your word for it.
Ms. Duncan gonna be ok?
All they have to say is "no" and they can stay home.Fvck the Olympics
if this were a big deal then why has it not been reported anywhere else? no mention of this on any of the national Olympic coverage. Iversons fracture was all over the Sports updates the other day. I bet this is nothing. David Chancellor always overdramatizes stuff
I just scrolled through every AP story regarding the olympics posted today on Yahoo sports wire and no mention whatsoever about Some Duncan injury
I didn't here anything about it on the Greek tv channel that covers the Olympic events. Since the Greeks have chances to end up as high as second in the group, the slightest Duncan injury would have traveled around the world by now.
I saw the news on KSAT tonight at 5:50 PM. They said that Tim's back and knee were bothering him but the Dr. looked at him and he checked out okay. After a while he was doing okay. They said that Tim has been playing a lot of minutes lately. He left a little early to rest today. They also said that it was nothing seriious.
then boys and gals - start singing Sinatra's "My Way" ---
And now , the end is near.....

This is precisely why our Team USA program sucks. We value our domestic compe ion more than we do internationsl compe ion. Absolutely pathetic. Why would our best players go, when even the fans could care less about international compe ion.
And yes, we should definitely send our pros. Other countries send their pros, and it's good for the sport overall.

If you had to carry two bands of stiffs from the Spurs to the Olympics, your back would hurt too.They said that Tim's back and knee were bothering him
Duncan should shut it down.
Prepare for what your getting your millions for.
I hope TD doesn't play another minute.
We value our domestic compe ion more than we do internationsl compe ion.
who cares about internetational competion
it is suppose to be for amature's not pro players
and yes addiass I know you have said they have pro's in scorrer
they can send them home to where they belong
you're there to play not sit
other players on the usa have SAT many minutes
duncan has played the most IMO
time for other players to play
If only Duncan were like 22 or 23, then we wouldn't have to worry about Larry Brown playing him.
