A forgotten year in San Antonio Spurs history, the 1996-1997 season in many ways set the foundation for the culture of the Spurs. Before the multiple foreign All-Star imports stolen with late draft picks, or mining Europe for role players, or even before Tim Duncan-back when an inexperienced front office Gregg Popovich was acquiring the Vernon Maxwells, Charles Smiths, and Carl Herreras of the world-there was a MASH unit of players led by a future hall of famer wearing a familiar no. 21 jersey.

The wave of milestones keep rolling in, and so far as Tim Duncan is concerned, he’d rather they not be. In the San Antonio Spurs 95-78 victory over the Portland Trailblazers the Spurs longtime franchise player played his 1,000th game and took sole possession of 29th place on the NBA all-time scoring list, surpassing Walt Bellamy.
If Duncan had his way, he’d rather not have just accomplished either, let alone be reminded.

The Spurs take on ROY candidate Blake Griffin and the Clippers tonight. Who should the Spurs use to defend him?
And how strong is his defense?

Drafted 10 years apart, Duncan now finds himself in a similar transition to the one once undertaken by his retired fellow twin tower. Still the anchor of a defense for an elite team, Duncan’s role in the offense has increasingly diminished. Now, looking back 10 years, his numbers are eerily similar to Robinson’s at the same point in their career.

Tim Varner says DeJuan Blair is not working as a Spur. He’s a center, Tim Duncan’s a center, and something has to give.

The Spurs have another high profile game against Chris Paul’s Hornets. Paul is having another MVP type season. How can he be stopped, slowed or even exploited?

In losing to the Dallas Mavericks, Tim Duncan lost more than his team’s 12-game winning streak. He also lost a bet. Last season, after a huge performance from Nowitzki, Duncan bet the Mavericks forward would not be able to replicate his 12-14 performance. Duncan was wrong.
