Who said Tim Duncan's best years are behind him?Last night the San Antonio Spurs won a nail-biter against the New Orleans Hornets 104-102 thanks in large part to TD. Duncan finished with 28 points and seven rebounds including the go-ahead shot which put the Spurs on top as he proved talks of his demise may be a bit premature. Check out TD's game-winning running hook-shot over the Hornets' Emeka Okafor including that bit of swagger he shows after hitting the shot. Of course this isn't the first time Duncan has been clutch. Who can forget his shot over the Phoenix Suns in the 2008 N.B.A. playoffs.

Post Up: Duncan Downs Hornets

by Abe Schwadron | @abe_squad There were 10 NBA games last night, with more than half of them decided by halftime. And it all began with one of the most hard-to-watch halves of basketball I’ve ever had the pleasure of enduring.
