Seeing as he wanted Finley back, what do you think?
Is Tim as pessimistic about next year as most of the posters are? He was a beast vs the Hornets and Lakers. Will Tim let Holt and Pop know he is not willing to around in mediocrity until the 'magical' free agent year of 2010? He has 4 prime years remaining as a dominant player. Why let his talents be wasted---- if this ownership group is not willing to open up their wallets to win this year and next? I know Tim is signed until 2012. However, a discontented Tim Duncan would be a nightmare to the value/image of this franchise.

Tim is wondering what is on the mind of the members of Spurs Talk right now....that, and the fact that he could really go for a club sandwich right about now.
Timmy is worried about hitting level 20 on Halo 3 right now. Afterwards, he will download the new Jets Brett Favre cover for his Madden 09.
Uh, how many legends got to play with two other All Stars for the meat of their career years? Not ing many.
There are probably 5 or 6 other first thru third team All NBA players that would die to be in Tim's shoes. Spurs fan is uber spoiled and expects Pop/RC to pull a fourth All Star out of their asses for minimum salary.
Don't the Spurs have cap space for 2010 if this year goes bad?? I thought that was one of the reasons Duncan took less on his new contract. Spurs will have a shot to win one more before Timmy retires.
1) Spurs fan es because Spurs are above the cap and limited to exceptions to sign players this year.
2) Spurs arrange huge cap room in 2010 to sign players.
3) Spurs fan es that nothing will happen then.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
Tim is wondering how come the 2004 US olympic Team was not as awesome as the 2008 team.
Duncan is probably doing one of two things:
-Laying on the beach in St. Croix while eating fish and fungi -- and oblivious to the world around him.
-Practicing defensive slides in the practice facility while listening to his iPod -- and oblivious to the world around him.
Duncan tried to help the Spurs get Maggette but after that fell through, I'm guessing he left it up to the Spurs to put together the best offseason possible.
Considering how the European teams have been throwing money around lately, the Spurs will be probably have just enough cap room to lure some scrub like Adam Morrison or Cuttino Mobley.
That year i expect Spurs throw maximum contract for Bosh or Wade. Otherwise FO can suck and being s forever!!! I think Lebron will stay in Cavs coz its his team, his team is strong in weak East and Cavs are aggresive in signing backups to please him,not to mention they will throw max deals for him as well. I see D Wade chance is better coz right now Miami sucks real bad...and he likes championship and money so go figure. I still see Bosh is the most important player in 2010 agency because he can be a solid foundation along Duncan, and we already got Parker as a dream PG. Manu also still got couple of good years left as well....
I would only add enjoying his family.
Duncan is usually back in the gym before this point in the summer. But I wouldn't think he's panicked about anything. It's not his style. He's not the GM, at least not officially. He'll let the FO do their job, he'll do his. He'll bring it to the court when the season tips, then he'll kick it up in the Playoffs. I can't ask for more from him.
It's the off season, Tim is probably thinking..." , where is a clean sippy cup for this kid"?

Tim is thinking that it's time for Spurs fans to appreciate a FO that's gotten 4 les in the past decade....
I think Tim missed a chance in 2008 playoffs to elevate himself past Shraq and a few others careerwise and begin to push into Jordan territory.
MJ and Phil J allegedly were joined at the hip when it came to strategy. Not that they would always agree, but they would duke it out and come to a unified decision that translated into championships. I fear Duncan instead submits to Pop and it costs. Ie being up 20 in Game 1 vs the Flamers and pulling Bowen off Kobme etc. Manu obviously not being right and yet Lord Pop waiting until Gm 4 to turn Barrdog loose. I love Manus play as much as any on the board but this idea that a 60-70% Manu is better then a 95-100%Barrdog was and is bogus Manu worship. Game costing bogus.
im pretty sure hes enjoying the summer.
He probably thinks the Spurs are fine. Which realistically, they will be a good team. I'm just not sure if they will be championship-esque this season. But I didn't htink they were championship-esque last season and they made it to the WCF...
The franchise has definitely lost a step, and I'm pretty sure Duncan is well aware of that. Probably thinking that we could have stayed with LA had we signed Scola, other than that FO has tried but failed in its pursuits. He seems like a bite the bullet kinda of guy, who understands things aren't always going to go your way all the time, and so he's just dealing with it the best he can. He's going to do his part regardless.
timmy is thinking my wife is good
Anyone know what Tim's favorite games are?
I know he was playing Halo 3 in that pic. It's from February '08.
He's taken to naming one of his stuffed animals Luis Scola and talks to it all the time.
probably thinking, if not for Hurricane Hugo when he was small, he'd be swimming for team U.S.A. not basketball...who knows?
