Spurs: Duncan needs rest
The Spurs hope another two days off between Games 3 and 4 of their Western Conference semifinals series against the Hornets will help All-Star power forward Tim Duncan reach full strength for Sunday's game. He's spent most of the past week battling high fever and flu-like symptoms. Duncan was examined by team doctors before tipoff for Thursday's game at AT&T Center. While his fever then was back to normal, several days spent battling the affliction appeared to have affected his play in the first two games, especially in Game 1.

Duncan and the Spurs are the defending champs. If the Hornets want to win a title, they're going to have to earn it. Tim will be ready to play.

Other players sit out when they get a hangnail. Duncan is sick and doesn't say a word about it or make excuses, but still gets beat up by people. "People" being the fans of the teams he beats. Ahh, the life of a CHAMPION!
Go Spurs Go! ! !

With FOUR NBA Championships in his career and multiple MVP's every team wishes Duncan was on their team. Maybe not the fans 'cause he's kicking their team out of contention, but every GM or coach wishes he had Duncan. And who's writing these posts? Fans of beaten teams, not the GM's or coaches. The only time you hear them saying anything negative is when he's beating their teams and they're trying to get into his head and screw him up so their team will win. Like I said, every GM or coach wishes he had Duncan. BUT WE GOT 'EM!

I don't care if he's sick or not, his play would not of affected the way Chris Paul destroyed them. If Parker can't duplicate game three this thing is over.

Yeah, he is getting older, but how many of you FN guys are playing for a potential NBA championship team, or are you just parked in front of your grubby keyboard, overweight, wearing your outgrown t-shirt advertising some jackass Nascar bs, swilling your can of cheap beer, glaring at Duncan, wishing you were him? Have some respect, he's going into Springfield, where are you going? To the refrigerator for another beer. No doubt.
By the way, WNBA players stay on the floor until they go out on a stretcher, they are looking for the ball, not their chair, towel and little papercup of Gatorade, their reward for staying in the game for three whole minutes and making an assist. They are not pampered NBA babies.
