The Spurs struggle with Timmy, so they should be looking to hold homecourt while he's on the IL. I hope this isn't a Karl Malone like injury, because he might be out for some if not all the playoffs aswell.
I hope it won't be a long term injury.The Spurs might struggle alot without him.The other players will need to step up and help the spurs win.
So far its only supposed to be one game. they havent activated anyone yet so thats a good sign...if they dont activate anyone shouldnt be too long. im guessing 2-4 games.

That includes the Denver game so there's 4 minimum left for TD's return.
Word....time for the Lakers to make up some ground baby! Nah I'm playin. I would never want to see a professional athlete go down, but the fact that LA could put themselves higher in the WC standings, doesn't sound too bad either....

If the spurs activate someone to replace duncan, then its a minimum of 5 games. since no one was activated, duncan can return whenever he is ready.
The spurs won against Denver without TD. Thats A good Sign. I expect him to be back in 2-3 games. Luckily they havent activated anyone.
The spurs without Timmy Duncan arent anything, its the truth.. he's that 1 player in the league that if you take him away his team wont be anything close to the team it was with him it wont even be a playoff team. Hope its not serious Timmy D. is MVP.
It's a good sign but who doesn't beat the Nuggets at home? We blew them out the building as well without Shaq, Kobe, and Malone. If he happens to be out longer than 5 games, then you can consider the Spurs in trouble. And who knows if this injury will nag him all year. I look for the Lakers to get in the top 4 for the time being. This is a huge oppourtunity for us, and since San Antonio does have a tough schedule coming up, it is very possible.

Very unfortunate that Duncan is out with his injury, but it's about time we gain a higer seed than just #4.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Streetball2k3:</div><div class="quote_post">Sorry man but KG is MVP.</div> yea probably, but td is still an mvp type player at least and a big loss when hes not playing...but you definitly are right...kg should be mvp.
