Spurs-Suns Playoff : Duncan 40 points Pawned Shaq and Amare

[thumper3662]

anyone who knows anything about basketball knows that robert horry is easily better than michael jordan. just count the rings. duhhhh. and don't forget that steve nash wishes he was even just 1/3rd as talented as steve kerr was. lol

[marcellrips]

wow what a great performance by a true champion!!! hits the three at the end to tie the game.......................and thats not even his range at all!!!!!!!!!

[FireArmsResQ]

TD is the man!

[eckodenim]

Tim Duncan got game!!

[dorsal08]

D'Antoni's face was a total classic!

[ArvanitisWarrior]

Its quite sad because, I remember clearly, everyone was expecting it to be a tough series, since the Suns had acquired Shaq just for this,to have someone guard Timmy should they meet in the playoffs..Well history has proven that it's not an easy task trying to defend the best PF of all time :)

[Dkouts57]

big spurs fan here. guy is not a PF. he started there and stayed there because a HOF was on that team. Have him get drafted by the Nets that year and he's their Center

[shaqpopcorn34]

@ArvanitisWarrior ...u must not have seen the game...to say shaq was called for a foul on almost every play is not an understatement....in this game alone,shaq was called for 3 fouls in 17 seconds....repeat,3 fouls in 17 seconds...amare fouled out...shaq and amare received bullshit calls the whole series...duncan is not the best pf of alltime...he isnt even better than garnett...what happens as soon as kg gets a decent team?...his team wins the title

duncan 0-2 vs karl malone in playoff series

[junster333]

@shaqpopcorn34 Just a question. How many title did Garnett win? And how many did Duncan win? You do the maths.

[shaqpopcorn34]

@junster333 ....kg is better than duncan.....u wanna talk rings?......robert horry has 7 rings.....if u go by rings,thanks for admitting robert horry is better than tim duncan

[Lonerfrog]

@shaqpopcorn34 so horry>duncan>mbenga/morison>ga­rnett

[spursbucswhitesoxfan]

@shaqpopcorn34 dumbest comment ever. I guess Robert Horry is better than Jordan by that logic huh? Duncan > KG not even that close.....

[shaqpopcorn34]

@spursbucswhitesoxfan ....WOW......duncan/kg not even that close?....lmaooo....sure......

duncan vs kg....in 38 career head to head games...

tim- 20.1 ppg 12.1 rpg 3.3 apg 0.5 spg 1.9 bpg

kg- 20.8 ppg 11.2 rpg 4.3 apg 1.5 spg 2.1 bpg

this is what they did when they played EACH OTHER.....very misleading,considering during many of those games duncan had david robinson to help down low as well........duncan is a great player,but kevin garnett is better....im a bball genius

[DB0175]

@shaqpopcorn34 dude duncun still won rings and final mvp's after david retired i mean i know duncun has a good team but so does garnnet now and Duncun still has more rings so that speaks for itself individual stats can only go so far talent and experience and passion for winning is clearly on Tim duncun's side making him the bettter player in general.

[shaqpopcorn34]

@DB0175 .....shaq and kg are better than duncan......tony parker won a damn finals mvp over duncan in 2007.....manu deserved it in 2005,there is no duncan....

duncan is a great player.....shaq and kg are better.........if rings make u better,thanks for admitting dennis rodman is better than duncan.....after all,he has more rings

[DB0175]

@shaqpopcorn34 I know Dennis Rodman would'nt had done as much for the Spurs and be as good as Duncun i know cuz we had Dennis Rodman Before idiot! Duncun has done it for the Spurs c'mon dude shaq in his prime was great but Duncun has been winning since he's statred he always makes his team better and Shaq and especially K.G. has not done it as well as Duncun has. Spurs only have the best winning percentage in all of sports since Duncun started Go figure Duncun is the best P.F. Ever peroid.

[shaqpopcorn34]

@DB0175 ....duncan is not on shaqs level....nobody is.....duncan has had the same coach his entire career.....he has had 3 of the most underrated players ever in robinson,parker,and ginobili.....duncan is having the least production in his career,yet winning at their highest rate......as always,the spurs are a damn good overall team......if garnett was in that situation he would have as many titles as duncan does,if not more.....duncan is the 2nd luckiest player ever,to sidekick kobe bryant

[darshloaf]

@shaqpopcorn34 I get what you're saying but consider that Duncan entered his prime his 2nd year in the league. He was so good at such a young age it's easy to forget how dominant he was from 1999-2005. Even before then he was a top 10 player (watch "Spurs Suns 1998" to see his 1st playoff masterpiece).Only HOF player Duncan played with was D-Rob, & at that point he was worn down with bad knees like Tim is today. Manu & Tony are very good, not great. Duncan has 2 MVP's & a ton more all-star games

[42marisol1]

@shaqpopcorn34 - says "duncan is not on shaqs level....nobody is" -

SHAQPOOP- I have noticed daydreaming kids who are so ENAMORED by their heroes go so far as to use the name of the player's ass they have their big head stuck up in ! by the way can you breathe inside those big Shaq cakes !

It's MORE than funny as you are the only one of the opinion that Shaq is is the best unless we are talking about another juvenile idiot like you who has seen nothing !

[Segovia06]

@shaqpopcorn34 Wtf is your point? Shaq was carried that whole season by Wade including the finals. Garnett got his ring but Paul Pierce got the finals MVP Tim Duncan built the players around him. Manu and Tony would be nothing without tim. And Manu did NOT deserve the finals mvp in 05 finals which is why he didn't get it. Manu played terrible on the road. Duncan and Shaq is the better arguement. Garnett couldn't win shit until he was with a stacked team. Duncan>garnett easy

[ancestron]

In all fairness to Shaq and Amare, you really can't get in too tight on Duncan because he is so crafty he will draw a foul 70% of the time. Which is why its so frustrating trying to guard him, and almost all the other Spurs for that matter.

[Frank87]

My god, Duncan might as well have done a layup drill on Amare's soft d.

[luyong300]

i never saw Tim Duncan pump his fist like that after he shot the three pointer... of course, if you were not known for hitting threes and suddenly you hit one especially if the game is on the line... damn, i would do that as well. TD is no doubt the best power forward in this business...

hahaha stupid shaq. he didn't even try to block tim duncan...

[nothingbutthetruth34]

it should be Spurs vs Celtics last 2008 NBA Finals

Lakers cheat on Spurs,

but my Celtics whoop Lakers ass in 6 game to become world champs!

I want Spurs & Celtics at the 2009 NBA Finals..!!

it'll be a good match >=)

[Adelaide1994]

how did lakers cheat?

[guuiness]

yeah the "flopping and dirty shittt" is present in every team in the NBA, you just see it more because the spurs are in the playoffs every year wrecking your favorite teams.

look at the lakers, they have plenty of floppers (including Kobe). Even the champs (celtics) have their designated flopper (pierce, and yes he does flop, but the commentators call it "selling the foul").

[rocky145]

i really dont like the spurss kuz of the floop and dirty shittt.....but if u know about basketball gotta admit tim duncan i awesomeeeee

[satownhustler210]

okay what dirty stuff?

[MR2323]

lol, Dantoni wanted to cry at the end

[Mr10grand]

Duncan is the best no doubt about it. Go Spurs!!!!!! Spurs are up 3-1. Tommorow itll be 4-1

[den1904]

the spurs are great! "notice during a timeout, Duncan was sitting he said something to HIS team and all at the same time got closer to hear what he had to say. That is what leadership is all about.

[p0lar]

i saw that too.. it was inspiring..

[dbreiden83080]

Simply the best #21

[LPerovich]

Spurs take game three too. Should we be talking SWEEP!!!!? Shaq attack. Hack a Shaq is working!!!

[keyenamaku]

DUNCAAAN!!!! ONFIREE!!!>.. Go SPURSS!!

[vilius83]

super!

[bigtimeS32]

1:28.... i don't wanna be the bad but i think he travel, i don't know it really well but i see both feet moving. =S could somebody make that clear for me? Thanx!

[w1205]

its not a travel.

you are allowed to take 2 steps before a dribble.

[killuah25]

watch his toe it still touches the floor,he didn't even made a single step, ^_^ you can do that even hundreds of time, it is like when you're faking a shot, ^_^

[KoRnOnJaCoB]

he kept his pivot foot down

[ajgambino3]

He grabbed the ball and took 2 steps. The most you can take when you have posession and no dribble. Catch, two step, shoot. Just like a layup: Dribble, two step, shoot.

[990305]

Just another Duncan hater bigtimeS32 dosen't Shaq do that crap to except charge

[bigtimeS32]

You are like a baby... scream and cry wut you want lol... i never said Duncan was crap, i think he is one of the bests, just asked if it was a travel or not lol. go and write crap anywhere not here lol.

[bigtimeS32]

Thx! i see it clear now ^^

[chiasmafora]

doesn't look spectacular, but duncan's the man, one of the all-time greats. btw, check the stats over his career, basically all important stats are better in the playoffs. compare that with most of the other "stars" in the league...

[popeye135]

stoudemire cant compare with tim duncan in any aspect of the game...stoudemire is a good player but tim duncan is a star and already a legend thats the small difference...

[KoRnOnJaCoB]

amare is the best power forward in the league

[imitche27]

look i hate the suns but can admit amare is a beast!! but there is no way he is better than tim, but would love to hear y u think that?

[SethSidius182]

wtf? he didnt own stoudemire, if stoudemire didn't foul out he would've gotten 40 points too.

[p0lar]

but he did fouled out didnt he?

[vannshy]

and who has 4 rings and who has not ?

[aberjan21]

ya theres a reason stoudemire fouled out. all game there were 3 suns players that guarded duncan. first, they threw shaq at him and he was in foul trouble the whole game and missed essentially the first half because he couldnt handle duncan. then they through diaw at him but duncan scored at will and diaw picked up 5 fouls. then they put stoudemire and he fouled out. shaq finished with 5 fouls. duncan is too good. the suns have to double team him

[p0lar]

well said.. that's a +1
