How Duncan would look like in a Celtics uniform
Hard to imagine it has been 16 years since the San Antonio Spurs won the 1997 NBA Draft Lottery and drafted Tim Duncan out of Wake Forest. Duncan not only changed the future of the Spurs, it also changed the path for the Boston Celtics who had the best odds to get the No. 1 pick in 1997. The Spurs drafted Duncan and the Celtics drafted Chancey Billups and Ron Mercer.

Tim Duncan, Spurs Helping Reject Absurd Cliché That Defense Does Not Matter in NBA
My wife sat down on the couch, glanced at the TV and caught a glimpse of Tim Duncan‘s incredulous mug making it clear that he disagreed with a foul call.
“He still plays?” she asked. “How old is he now, like 50?”
That is patently absurd, of course. Duncan’s not a day over 49. And after he scored just six points in the Spurs’ victory over the Grizzlies in Game 1 of the...
Spurs take game 1 versus Grizzlies
The game wasn’t close, but we’ve seen Memphis come back repeatedly after Game 1 losses, so we won’t make too much of this game. The question will be whether a young team like the Grizzlies can rise to the occasion in the conference finals against a veteran team like the Spurs. I Like the Spurs in this series, but game 1 outcomes can be deceiving. The Spurs have to hold the...
Video: Tony Parker shuts down Memphis in Game 1

Tony Parker generated 20 points and dished out nine assists.

Spurs-Grizzlies in West Finals 'not going to be pretty'
Forget about pint-sized point guards going crazy for 22 points in a quarter. Spurs-Grizzlies is going to be ugly. Meat-grinder ugly.

Video: Tim Duncan pushes and stares down former Spur Richard Jefferson
The San Antonio Spurs aren’t exactly known as a team with a mean streak, especially after they waived volatile forward Stephen Jackson before the playoffs began.
So for Tim Duncan – the gentlest of giants and the man who has set the tone and (lack of) attitude for the team – to push a former teammate during Game 5 of the Spurs’ series against the Golden State Warriors, and...
