Timmy doesn't really have major health issues, right? I think he can still keep on going pass 40. But he can still always choose to go other directions.

Re: Will Duncan and Dirk announce retirement during their last season like Kobe?
Dirk does not want it, he mentioned it in an interview in one of the latest Sports Illustrated. I believe it was something to do with does not want that must spotlight, wants to just walk away when he's ready.

LeBron will. If Duncan and Dirk announce it, it will be out of answer a question from a reporter honestly, not something forced. I could see a reporter ask Duncan if it is his last and him saying "Probably."

Dirk top 15 all time
Re: Will Duncan and Dirk announce retirement during their last season like Kobe?
regardless the discussion if dirk "earned" it or not:
Unlike Bryant, Nowitzki has no interest in a farewell tour. “I don’t want people to high-five me everywhere I go or make this a big deal about me,” he said. “What [Derek] Jeter did or what the closer, Mariano Rivera, did—every ballpark you get some gifts, you know, sausages in Milwaukee?” Nowitzki shook his head, shifting onto one elbow. “No chance I’d ever do that. I’m not the guy who will say, ‘This is my last year.’ ” He paused. “When I’m gone, I’m gone.”

This shouldn't even be a question if you've followed either of these guys. Whenever they hang it up, it will be at season's end that they announce it.

Bullsh*it false modesty because he knows no one would give a flying f*ck or make a big deal about him retiring at all except for a couple of f*ggot Mavs fans.

There should be new rule that East Coast shouldn't comment on shit that happens on this side of the states because you all seemed to be misinformed or just dumb.
Behind the scenes it was common knowledge Kobe was retiring, Mitch announced Kobe would retire this season in the summer. He only announced it mid season because people were crucifying him for playing like garbage, namely the media. Now they hang on every shot hoping for a vintage game.
It was to change perception of whats arguably his worst season ever.

LeBron Jr is also going to surpass Kobe. I can see this kid demanding to be traded to the Lakers during draft night. No need to waste your prime on a losing team while you can play with a prestigious franchise like the Lakers.
LeBron James Jr, Dwayne Wade Jr, Carmelo's Son, and even CP3 Jr are going to be the one who's going to give some tribute to the King. Those Kids were born from 2002-2006. And they are the real future of the NBA.
Not one of them will have a notable nba career. Just stop.

There's nothing wrong with a player like Lebron or Kobe announcing their retirement the year of. Kobe was getting bombarded with retirement speculation and questions and Lebron undoubtedly will too, why not put it out there and be done with it?
