The importance of Tim Kness to the Spurs success in 2009-10

by Gino20 on Oct 28, 2009 5:25 PM CDT

We all know Manu's injury was a big factor in last season's troubles, but don't forget about the other key to maintaining team health and success.

Tim Kness.

When Tim Kness felt well early last season, the team was very successful. In fact, Tim Duncan himself was dominant when Tim Kness felt up to par. Soon, however, Tim Kness started feeling pain and soreness. It was at this point that the team began to falter. You may also notice that Duncan's production went down in the 2nd half of the season when Tim Kness felt pain. I blame Tim Kness for this mess!

Tim Kness will be back stronger than ever. He is already a strong candidate on winning the EMOTY. It’s gonna be a hell of a season.

Long live Mr.Bowen

That’d be great! The Spurs haven’t taken home EMOTY since the ABA days.

I’m excited.

Nice, and yes, we can blame this season’s success (or, FSM forbid, failure) on Tim Kness.

sorry to say but Timmy’s knees looked shot last night and think that is the way it is. No hops, no speed, all heart. Doesn’t mean he can’t produce or isn’t a very important part of this team, it just means that Timmy will not be the dominating player he has been since he first stepped foot in the league.
