Tim Duncan was dominant in 26 minutes vs. the Pistons on Sunday, scoring 16 points with 11 rebounds, six assists and five blocks. We've become inured to lines like this from Duncan, who made 7-of-14 field goals and didn't turn the ball over. The threat of a random DNPs will continue to hover over Duncan, but the good news is that San Antonio only plays one back-to-back set this month, on March 11-12. It's also conceivable (if doubtful) that Tony Parker's absence could make Pop think twice before benching Duncan.
