  I think this dude is definately one of the greatest of All-Time at this point. Even if he retires now.

  The Spurs fans went from "OH GOD...." to "OH MY GOD!" in about 2.4 seconds.

  This was probably one of the most clutch shots i've ever seen. It was a superstar like play and just shows how great TD really is!

  Clutch is the right word for TD.     He is great.   I wish the NBA had a few more like him.

Tim Duncan hits a *super* clutch three-pointer

Tim Duncan, With Emotion AND 3-Point Range [NBA Playoffs]
Published 4/19/2008 by Sussman at Deadspin
This is about as pumped as I've ever seen Tim Duncan, and the fella has as many national championships as Derek Jeter. And yet ... in Game 1, of Series 1, in 2008, he lets loose into the sky with a free-flailing yippee-yahoo fist pump. I guess when Robert Horry's no longer on the team, someone has to attempt those shots. San Antonio won 117-115 in double overtime to take the 1-0 series lead. Timothy Duncan finished with a cool ranch 40 points. Stay tuned for Game 2, when more rarities surface: Shaquille O'Neal makes a 3-point shot. Bruce Bowen helps up the guy he just knocked down. And Steve Nash ...

Dallas at New Orleans Game 1
Published 4/19/2008 by Avinash at The Play in California
Well, we just had a gritty game where LeBron James fought out the toughness of the trash-talking Wizards to pull out Game 1. That was followed by one of the greatest NBA playoff games, EVER (not even close to an exaggeration). And now we have a matchup between two of the best point guards in the league. I believe such a combination of events is why heart monitors were invented. I think this will be my last one today, and I'll kick back for Houston-Utah. I'm realllly exhausted, and I went from 1 visitor to 2 on the last live blog. That isn't exactly great incentive to continue with this. ...

Tim Duncan Hits The Clutch Three
Published 4/19/2008 by HG at YOU BEEN BLINDED
The San Antonio Spurs have eight or nine guys that should take the game tying 3-point shot instead of Tim Duncan. Timmay had four career playoff three pointers and none this season until he lined up and drilled the shot to send this great game into double overtime. I have the Suns ...

Tim Duncan Gets Super Lucky Hits Clutch Three Against Suns, My Spurs Hatred Reaches New Peak
Published 4/20/2008 at FanIQ Blog
If you've come here looking for praise of the Spurs and Tim Duncan, then I suggest you leave now, because you won't find it here - ever. Tim Duncan didn't hit a clutch shot to force the second overtime. He lucked out and hit a shot he never takes. There's nothing clutch about that at all. It's like picking some idiot out of the stands and asking him to hit a half-court shot. Occasionally the idiot hits it. Was he 'clutch'? Hell no. He was lucky, just like Duncan. Now, once again, the loathsome Spurs - and their hideous brand of basketball - have the upper hand on the Suns. I don't care ...

Tim Duncan Insanely Good
Published 4/20/2008 by Dave at Sports Blog - football, basketball, and baseball
As mentioned below, Duncan’s three was insane. The guy was wide open, it was completely uncontested, but still: Any three Duncan makes with the game on the line is pretty freaking insane.

Tim Duncan for 3???
Published 4/20/2008 by houroc at SportFiends
Ok so this was just an absolutely sick play.  The Spurs were down 3 with less than a minute to go and they set up a game tying 3 pointer for Tim Duncan?!?! Wow and he knocked it down.

Dude, the NFL Draft is this Weekend
Published 4/21/2008 by Kirkendall <info@cincyjungle.com> at Cincy Jungle: Front Page Posts
NFL.com ran a mock draft that included beat writers from their respective home towns (note to NFL.com: there's nothing better than watching an ad before a full minute video of Mark Curnutte to find out a pick that takes one single second to read... goooo corporate marketing). It's Phillip Merling for you dial-up folks. Keep it simple, let us read it. I have to question that pick. Why take -- general consensus here -- the third best defensive end in the draft as your #9 pick? That would counter Marvin Lewis' theory that you just pick the best available player -- not certain position -- of the draft. Especially for a position where the team already has ...

Tim Duncan and the scourge of the garbage three
Published 4/21/2008 by PostmanE at The Postmen // A Sports Blog // Chicago, IL.
By now, you’ve seen the highlight at least 65,000 times: The Suns play just OK rotation defense, Shaq helps on Ginobili, no one rotates to Tim Duncan — because no one should ever rotate to Duncan if he’s outside 20 feet — and the Spurs are forced to settle for a Timmy D three with their first-round lives already in the balance. You know what happened then. The minute Duncan drained the shot, I thought but one thought in my brain: That is so garbage. It’s the same thing I say at least once or twice a night at the gym. There are always one or two really good players that kill you the ...

The 2008 NBA Playoff Recap: What We Learned [Nba Season Wrapup]
Published 6/23/2008 by Will Leitch at Deadspin
The 2008 NBA playoffs did more than just entertain us for the last seven or eight months. It taught us stuff. Some stuff we only suspected, and some other stuff we never even knew before. Here is that stuff. The Atlanta Hawks have fans...real, flesh-and-blood fans. Boston fans, on the other hand, apparently are bandwagon jumpers. The NBA will not tolerate "menacing" hand gestures. Ever. Kevin Garnett never forgets. "Third person" is LeBron James' preferred method of speaking. Basketball and rapper slap-fights can go hand-in-hand. Trash-talking Lebron James ...
