I don't think TD will return next year. He's been a ghost in the playoffs. What's the point in resting him during the 82 games if he's still out of gas in the playoffs?
Saving Duncan for those KEY inbound passes late in games! Seriously though, if he isn't going to get minutes in this series (which are going to West) there is no way he is getting any serious minutes against the Warriors. I can see Duncan playing another year though. BUT, if they win the title, I could also see him calling it a day after a title win.
Is Duncan the heir to Pop's throne in SA? He's had the longest time to study Pop's theories and secrets.
