You honestly think 10 minutes of Tim Duncan is bad for a team? He has excellent court vision, still has great movement, and can score when needed. Yeah he was lackluster towards the seasons end, but he was playing out of position most of the time vs excellent teams due to the addition of LMA. He'd be the 6moty if he rode the bench for any of the 29 other nba teams. You can't deny the talent this dude has.

He dropped off faster than anyone I've seen. It makes sense at his age. But i don't think he'll even play next year.

A fair assessment. But like I said, I wouldn't use him as a starter. His bench minutes would be low, but of the highest quality.

Exactly what my team needs. Someone to come in for LMA to close out quarters or start the 2nd/4th. Or for defensive switches.

Pick is bad because I think there's a high chance he hangs it up... Probably 70% chance he retires before the season starts. 99% chance he retires by year 2. So essentially you will be without a player for 2 maybe all three years.

Even if he plays he will be bad. He was very very slow last year. Just look at his playoffs where he got torched. Greatest power forward of all time but Father Time catches everyone.

I made a risky move too with Chris bosh, but bosh can still get it done if he plays. Basically, imo, if bosh plays my team should be the favorite by far. I don't think there is much of a reward to this risk

Nice pick sjax. Like your team. Almost picked him but decided with livingston because I didn't need the scoring but needed a passer and defender

Yeah but for 10-15 minutes off the bench, he's gonna put in quality fucking minutes. And, he's a great defender.


Yeah but then youre short a player for 2 years


Dunca. Is still a great defensive player though. But probably more at center/conventional ball/not small ball



Offensively he doesnt have it...can probably knock down an open jumper like ur standard old guy at the park, but there were numerous instances where he missed open dunks just because he couldnt get any lift off the ground
