Stick to football.
Now that the banana boat has finally come in for Spurs fans, this topic can be talked about with reason.
Don't get me wrong, Tim Duncan got the Spurs 3 O'Briens and really deserves some credit for taking San Antonio to the top so I say give him his hams and plaques, play "Simply The Best" and whatever else, but send him away. This guy has mailed it in for his career. He's a washed up hack at the age of 30. Spurs need to get rid of him while the getting is good. The Spurs need someone new that isn't too busy playing video games to be the cornerstone player. Spurs need someone that desperately wants to win and doesn't mind putting the weight of the franchise on his back. They need rebounding, skill, versatility, athleticism, intensity, and shot blocking. Do you know anyone like that available?

If you think of it from an objective basketball standpoint, it makes sense.
use me, i help arguements
- logic
The goal is to put trophies on the mantle. It would be nice to do it with the same franchise player, but if they don't get the job done you either keep making it to the playoffs and saying woulda, coulda, shoulda, almost, the refs or you try something else. (but not the 76er method were you trade Iverson for nothing)
TD is not KG
Never trade
all we need is a mike miller/jr smith type to spark energy off of the bench...
Even thought TD pisses me off a ton, this is ridiculous. Who on earth are you going to trade him for and still be a contender? You'd never get equal value in a trade like this. If Tim turns it on like he did last year, then anything is possible. Thats better than nothing.
You must be a foreign exchange TWolves fan.
1) spurs couldn't afford the salary
2) wolves would never consider it
3) i don't want to see KG yelling all the time
Darn. What about Elton Brand?
how about oberto, bonner and barry to charlotte for may, carrol and a hot dog vendor?
we just need someone with some hustle.
Hey that hot dog vendor isn't just a throw in. Spurs only have cotton candy, peanuts, and pop corn available for Johnny Nomoney to buy from his seat. Let alone Peking Duck or hot dogs.
People who don't know about basketball shouldn't post. Brand for Duncan? Do you know what basketball is about, Kris? Or are you the "stupid fan" who judges players by stats and nothing else.
There isn't a player in this league that the Spurs would trade Duncan for.
probably not one player but maybe two...
tdunk for nash and amare....where do i sign?
Uh, wasn't he 30 in the semis back in May when he played some monster basketball and looked great? Tim seems like he's lost a little bit of enthusiasm and needs a good swift kick in the arse (i mean this in the nicest way possible), there's nothing technically wrong with his basketball skills. I wonder if Pop ever directs his anger at Tim the way he does with Parker...Parker shows a lot more heart right now.
Oh you got jokes. My bad.
Just a stupid fan that judges players by stats and nothing else. If Duncan doesn't get a double-double, I get very angry and you wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

perhaps its because he knows the spurs will most likely make the playoffs and he can somewhat coast until he needs to go 30-15 for a straight month...
That's supposed to be just Garnett.
so then why does he even exert all that energy into complaining (timmy) during regular season games? i'm being totally serious...i can't really believe you think the spurs are just going to turn it on come playoff time when they are not playing with much heart right now. that's not to say that they can't improve and be great during the playoffs but improvement takes time, it's not a silly little on/off switch
I think that's where I disagree most with a lot of fans. I was never too impressed by Duncan's 30 and 15 games against the Mavs. Granted, he did show great improvement over his regular season performance that season, but he still didn't come close to touching the way he dominated the compe ion in his hayday. There's not too many people that agree with that, but when he was on there's no way Diop continually blocks him or Mbenga guards him servicably. Good games and a lot better effort by Duncan in that series than even the '05 finals, but still not as good as he was in his first, second, third, fourth year...
Trade him to the polish leauge then he will learn!![]()
