San Antonio Spurs – Tim Duncan Makes Sure the West Stays Beneath
It’s about making sure teams know who the best team around is with the playoffs so close. Tim Duncan knew it was on him, with the Denver Nuggets focusing so strongly on Tony Parker. So he came up with another impressive, almost vintage-like performance on both ends of the floor to keep the San Antonio Spurs on top of the Western conference.

San Antonio Spurs – Tim Duncan Clears the Way for Tony Parker
They couldn’t make it easy for Tony Parker on his return game, playing for the first time in three weeks after being taken out by an ankle injury. He still was the best player on the court, the MVP if you will (like San Antonio Spurs fan love to chant about), helping the best team in the Western Conference make it through a tough overtime game against a team that’s moving further away from the NBA playoffs.

San Antonio Spurs – Tim Duncan & Tiago Splitter are the Best Big Man Duo in the NBA
Some arguments can’t be decided, but the way the San Antonio Spurs are looking recently thanks to Tim Duncan raising the level of his game while Tony Parker recovers with his injury puts them on top of the Western Conference justly, while the combination between Duncan and Tiago Splitter might be the best we’re seeing this season from two big men in the NBA.

Are the San Antonio Spurs the Luckiest Team in the NBA
While the word luck in sports is hard to capture, and most often agree that the harder you train, the more lucky you get (as the old cliché goes), there’s still a way to measure it, and when looking at the 2012-2013 NBA season, there’s a good chance the San Antonio Spurs have been the luckiest team so far of them all.

Tim Duncan is Posting Record Numbers at the Age of 36
If you look at the numbers, especially on defense, Tim Duncan is producing this season for the San Antonio Spurs, you’d be amazed to check out his birth date and realize he’s 36, and still posting career highs in defensive rebounds and blocks, making the most, especially on defense, of the time he’s spending on the floor.

San Antonio Spurs – Tim Duncan on Best Big Man in NBA Mode
It has been harder on Tim Duncan at certain moments this season to shine, but still, you don’t expect a 36 year old man to turn on the time machine so often and play like these are his MVP days every night. And still, without Tony Parker, it seems that’s just what the San Antonio Spurs need him to be doing.

San Antonio Spurs – No Longer a Fair Rivalry
The big Texas rivalry that was probably the most consistent in the NBA over the last decade or so is no longer a fair fight, with the San Antonio Spurs not really needing their best player (injured Tony Parker) to beat and sweep their season series with the Dallas Mavericks; not when Tim Duncan plays one of his best games of the season.

Bromance San Antonio Spurs Style
Some photos don’t need captions, words, letters. Just David Robinson giving Tim Duncan a big ol’ hug after the San Antonio Spurs win another NBA title. The best twin tower pair in the history of the league owe success to each other, although the Admiral probably owes Timmy a bit more.

San Antonio Spurs – Tiago Splitter Outshines Superstars
With Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili nothing more than pedestrian, and on the other side for the Oklahoma City Thunder, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook weren’t great in handling the physicality of the San Antonio Spurs and their defense, Tiago Splitter was all people was the player who made the biggest impression.

San Antonio Spurs – Tim Duncan Bringing Back the Defense
After a great start to the season, we’ve heard a little bit less of Tim Duncan. Part of the reason was Tony Parker taking things to another level possibly the MVP kind, but it was also about Duncan taking a step back, getting injured and resting. Now it’s his turn to dominate for the San Antonio Spurs, bringing it on both ends of the floor.
