ALL BALL NERVE CENTER — I guess the thinking goes, if you have to wear a knee brace, at least make sure it’s something cool. This appears to be what Tim Duncan has believed, possibly for a while now. Last year during the Finals, people noticed that Duncan had several choices in knee wear, including a Punisher-themed brace.
(We should note that because Duncan usually wears a sleeve over the brace, we can’t tell which brace he’s wearing in games.)
Yesterday before the Spurs beat Dallas in Game 7 of their series, my main man George Kiel III tweeted a photo of Duncan’s current brace selection. Perhaps in honor of The Amazing Spider Man 2, Duncan appears to have added a Spidey Deadpool brace to his arsenal…
Tim Duncan has some pretty interesting knee braces options for Game 7 today. #Spurs #Mavs http://t.co/dZjFxdPKiU—

Thank you
You beat me to it. Yep, that’s good ol’ Deadpool.
did he wear any of them during the game? or is this just part of his collection?
where is the spiderman knee brace? I see a Deadpool, not sure what the one in the middle is, & the punisher to right
Clearly Deadpool
Mr. Whitaker you should go and buy some comics.Deadpool not Spiderrman
Hmm interesting, the robot seems to be showing signs of a personality.
I like these. Does Lang or anyone else know who did the design work on these? He could auction them off for charity when he retires.
Does Duncan read comics? Never leave an NBA head to write on comic matters! Rookie mistake! smh
Knee braces suck the spider man design sucks.
I only like the see knee braces on nba video games.
Timmy D!
What is the one in middle?
Forgive him, he only watches basketball
where can i get this cool stuff I want a knee brace too I have pain in my knees somertimes especially after I do squats at the gym
A Tim Duncan story! He should rock the punisher one to go along with his skeleton bone addidas’s
Hmmmm should we give Duncan a new nickname?…. Tim “THE PUNISHER” Duncan. Weird…hahahaha
