After being a Spurs fan marooned in Los Angeles for years, I finally made it to a Spurs home game in March 2016. I had decided earlier that season that it might be the Great Tim Duncan’s last year. This gave me the incentive to invest the time and money to fly to San Antonio with super-wife Linda for a stay on the Riverwalk and a Spurs home game – against the Sacramento Kings.
Ironically, Coach Pop decided that for the game we chose -- a late-season game against the Sacramento -- he did not need Timmy to play for the Spurs to win.
