OK, So Duncan's Playing Tonight

[ABM]

Actually, I'm relatively pleased about that. I want to see our team go up against good teams who are as full strength as possible.

I'm still having difficulties getting a good read on our team. Are they as good as we think they "should" be? Are they over-achieving and, really, are only an 8th seed, one 'n dun team? Are they going to surprise us with great play heading into the final games of the season.....and somehow get into the 2nd round?

I dunno.

I do know, though, that I want to see how well they perform against tough competition. I'm done "hoping and praying" that they get the lightest schedule and/or playing short-handed teams.

It's time to nut up, folks! (Oh, and not just at home, either. See: Thursday night's game in Denver.)

Misspelled Duncan in the thread title. If a mod sees this, please correct.

Exact same matchup as the first time at home.

No Manu, no Oden, no Webster.

Duncan will be rusty, I like

Alright! Since I'm paying for games (season ticket holder for many years), I want the highest-quality show I can get. Not to mention the possibility that we may face these guys in the playoffs, so we need this experience...

Where did you read that Duncan is playing? I keep reading he is still a gametime decision.

You're right. I had mis-read that.

According to a Spurs insider, Duncan is out of today's game, Oden apparently has a chance of playing.

I think Duncan will play, the only reason he didn't play Friday was because Pop wanted to err on the side of caution. He was cleared to play.

Dunc

Shit, wishful thinking on my part.

Hey, that doesn't necessarily mean he is playing. I've seen lots of players go through warmups (at full speed, even) and then still not play in the game.

TD just trotted out on the court ready to go!
