The Best of TD

"Aaaah it's my only fear... even-numbered years!"

Here's a roundup of the best of Tim Duncan from around the web:
  • Sports Illustrated imagines a bizarro world in which Tim Duncan is emulated and respected like a "normal" superstar, here. Hands down the best line is, "Across the gyms and blacktops of America, teenagers would catch the ball on the left block. mechanically turn, fire up  a bank shot and then yell, "I just went TD on your a--!"
  • Timmy made one 3-pointer in the 2007/2008 season... and broke the heart of every single Phoenix Suns fan that had stuck with the team after the 2006/2007 debacle. Worse, that one game rendered the rest of the playoffs unwatchable, since it was inconceivable that anything else would top it
  • Sometimes, people wonder if Timmy's a robot. This is unfair. He's just really, really, reallyreally boring
  • His career averages in various statistical categories are pretty close to the fibonacci sequence
  • He's the best big man of our era and probably the best power forward of all time (if he is, in fact, a power forward [which nobody really believes])
  • Timmy was almost certainly the only NBA player to ever get thrown out of a game for laughing
