Thursday - Picture of the Week

I selected this picture as a reminder that Tim Duncan is still pretty good. Sure our lasting image of him from the Dallas series is not good. But he did have plantar fasciitis. Somehow the Big Fundamental has gotten lost in all the talk about Amare Stoudemire’s knees, Tracy McGrady’s back, Paul Pierce's hip, Yao Ming’s toe, Kobe Bryant’s knee, Mark Blount’s heart, Andrew Bogut’s torn ligament, Pau Gasol’s foot and even Jared Jeffries’ wrist. Meanwhile Duncan has been rehabbing, biding his time, prepping to take the league by storm. DeSagana Diop, the rest of league’s forwards and centers and the Boston Celtics franchise (just for old times’ sake): You’ve been warned.
