The most amazing thing is about to happen in the NBA this summer.

One of the finest, most coveted players in the league figures to become a free agent, but there will be no frenzy to buy him. There won't even be much window-shopping.

Tim Duncan could be free in less than a month, but everyone understands he is not free. It is a waste of time to speculate about him.

The San Antonio Spurs have successfully shooed away the rest of the NBA from buzzing around their best player.

Duncan will be in San Antonio next season. He probably will be in San Antonio for the remainder of his career. No amount of fawning or cap space can change that.
